  • Protecting your Almonds from Ant Damage

    Almonds sat on the ground to dry a little longer this season due to the abnormal drop in temperatures and increase in humidity at harvest. This provided a longer window of opportunity for ants to feast on the valuable product.  Regardless of what the future brings, there will always be ants in the orchard and now would be a good time to freshen up your knowledge on how to manage them in the orchard. Watch this interview with UC IPM Advisor Kris Tollerup and don’t miss his upcoming ant management presentation at the annual Tree & Vine Expo on November 10th.
