The Pomacea insularum (apple snail) species is found in Spain. First detected in 2009, it has spread throughout the Ebro Delta. This species is considered one of the 100 most harmful invasive species.

Fire blight is a disease caused by the bacterium Erwinia amylovora that affects various species of the Rosaceae family, including pear, apple, quince, Japanese medlar, etc.

In the various areas where Drosophila suzukii is being monitored, populations of this insect are being detected. Remember that attacks tend to be more intense and frequent at the beginning of the harvest, and treatment will be especially necessary in plots that were attacked in previous years and that left cherries unharvested last year (fly damage or cracking, lack of profitability, etc.).

The second generation of the plum moth has been seen flying between late May and early June in the Ribera and Val d'Albaida regions, and somewhat later in inland areas. Eggs will hatch this week and next. Treat accordingly.

The olive fruit fly population is beginning to increase this year, so an initial bait treatment is recommended. Once the first pitted olives appear, the next generation of adults will emerge approximately 25 days later, and a second bait treatment is required to control them.

Field Pest Situation Report, 2024 Campaign, Week 43: October 21-October 27

This document sets out the measures to be taken against gastropod mollusc species of the genus Pomacea, a quarantine pest in Europe, with the aim of preventing their appearance and, if they do appear, acting quickly and effectively, determining their distribution and combating them with the aim of eradicating them.

Given the damage caused by thrips observed since May on leaves and fruit in various citrus, persimmon and pomegranate crops and the confirmation of the presence of Scirtothrips aurantii Faure in certain areas, the following recommendations have been considered appropriate:

Pollinating insects are vitally important for the proper functioning of crops. Pollination is essential to ensuring the quantity and quality of crops and food production, directly linking wild ecosystems with agricultural production systems.
