This Fresh Market Hot Pepper trial compared 7 cultivars using 4 replicates of each cultivar. Objectives were to evaluate potential fresh market cultivars for total yield, grade and quality attributes and for their overall suitability in southern Ohio growing seasons.
This trial consisted of greenhouse-raised pepper plants to which 5 treatments (Actara 25 WG at 3 oz/ac; Actara 25 WG at 4 oz/ac; Cryolite 96 at 10 lb/ac; Vydate 2 L at 2 qt/ac and an untreated check) were assigned in an RCB design with 4 replications.
Virginia Tech researchers are responding by harnessing geographic information systems (GIS)-planning tools frequently linked to defense, emergency response, and telecommunications applications-to make Jamaican farmers aware of how gall midge infestation varies across space.
