4.1 Introduction

For information on cultivar selection, cultural practices, or photographs of pest damage, obtain a copy of the Raspberry and Blackberry Production Guide (NRAES-35) from your Cornell Cooperative Extension Office or order on line at: http://www.nraes.org/.

 

For assistance with diagnosing bramble problems, use the Berry Diagnostic Tool at http://www.hort.cornell.edu/diagnostic or contact your Cornell Cooperative Extension Office for assistance. To submit samples for disease diagnosis, contact Plant Disease Clinic, Cornell University, Department of Plant Pathology, 334 Plant Science Building, Ithaca, NY 14853-4203, (607) 255-7850, http://www.plantclinic.cornell.edu.

 

To submit samples for insect diagnosis or for phone consultations, contact Insect Diagnostic Laboratory, Cornell University, Department of Entomology, 4140 Comstock Hall, Ithaca, NY 14853-2601, (607) 255-3250, http://www.entomology.cornell. edu/Extension/DiagnosticLab.

 

All pesticides used for bramble production must be registered with the state and federal governments. Consult Table 4.1.2 to determine legal pesticides, their brand names, and any restrictions that may apply. Unless otherwise noted, use 100 gal water per acre.
