GLOSSARY

DESCRIPTION OF THE PEST The brown garden [80K] snail is about 1 inch (2.5 cm) in diameter at maturity and has a distinct color pattern. It is most active during the night and early morning when it is damp. In southern California, particularly along the coast, young snails are active throughout the year. Mature snails hibernate in the topsoil during winter. Snails are bisexual (hermaphroditic); all snails of reproductive age lay eggs up to six times during a season, depending on local climate and available moisture. After mating, they lay up to 80 eggs [46K] a month in shallow depressions in the topsoil. Eggs are white, spherical, and about 0.1 inch (3 mm) in diameter. DAMAGE The brown garden snail can cause extensive damage [60K] in orchards by feeding on ripe and ripening fruit and young tree leaves, and in nurseries by feeding on young tree bark. It can cause severe problems in citrus orchards, where no-till weed control and sprinkler and drip irrigation create an ideal environment for snail development. MANAGEMENT Management of the brown garden snail is a four step process that involves pruning tree skirts [78K] ; banding tree trunks with copper foil [75K] or a basic copper sulfate slurry; putting out poison bait to reduce their populations; and making releases of the predatory

    Alternative pest control methods.

    Ecologically Based Pest Management
    Executive Summary
    Pests develop resistance to synthetic chemical pesticides, just as microbial pathogens of humans develop resistance to antibiotics. In fact, pest resistance currently limits the efficacy of many insecticides, fungicides, and herbicides; and there are pests such as plant-parasitic nematodes and bacteria for which no effective pesticides are available. Many synthetic chemical pesticides are broad-spectrum, killing not only arthropod and pathogen pests but also beneficial organisms that serve as natural pest-control systems. Without benefit of the natural controls that keep pest populations in check, growers become increasingly dependent on chemical pesticides to which pests may eventually develop resistance. Thus there is an urgent need for an alternative approach to pest management that can complement and partially replace current chemically based pest-management practices. Pest-management strategies can be viewed in context of whole-farming systems. In whole-farming systems, pest-management methods are integrated into other management components of agronomic systems such as crop fertilization, cultivation, cropping patterns, and farm economics. Such alternative farm-management strategies that promote soil and plant health, and water quality were recommended by the National Research Council in their report Alternative Agriculture (National Research Council, 1989b).

    Agricultural Economics Report No. 786. 28 pp, May 2000 Adoption of genetically engineered crops with traits for pest management has risen dramatically since their commercial introduction in the mid-1990's. The farm-level impacts of such crops on pesticide use, yields, and net returns vary with the crop and technology examined. Adoption of herbicide-tolerant cotton led to significant increases in yields and net returns, but was not associated with significant changes in herbicide use. On the other hand, increases in adoption of herbicide-tolerant soybeans led to small but significant increases in yields, no changes in net returns, and significant decreases in herbicide use. Adoption of Bt cotton in the Southeast significantly increased yields and net returns and significantly reduced insecticide use.
