98. #CropCareConvos - Fighting a Spotted Lanternfly Invasion with a Parasitic Wasp w/ Mark Hoddle, f. Matthew Gates

10 Jul 2020

Description

The Spotted Lanternfly is likely to become a terrible pest for California's grapes, fruit trees, nuts, and other high-value crops. Luckily, Dr. Mark Hoddle (University of California Riverside entomologist) is conducting biocontrol research. He's looking into a parasitic wasp. Very cool stuff. And important work to protect farmers from this devastating invasive species already wreaking havoc in the northeast. Dr. Hoddle chats with Bobby Shearer, and #CropTalk Content Collaborator, Matthew Gates, about what he's up to on this episode of #CropCareConvos. Let's talk biological control! #LetsTalkCrops! Big thanks to the UCANR, the UCCE, Dr. Mark Hoddle, and his research team.
