Description
IRDA was tasked with coordinating and increasing the use of mating disruption to control codling moths on at least 35% of Québec’s apple farms and 40% of its apple-growing production acreage.
Objective(s)
- Ensure that at least 35% of Québec apple farms use mating disruption to control the codling moth
- Ensure that mating disruption is used to control the codling moth on at least 40% of Québec’s apple acreage
From 2018 to 2020
Project duration
Fruit production
Activity areas
Pest, weed, and disease control
Service
In contrast with pesticide use, this method lowers health risks to humans and the environment.
