In today’s agriculture, farmers are searching for solutions that have less of an impact on our land & water resources. Today’s educated society has discovered the importance of using alternative programs for managing crops and are demanding these changes!

There are several factors that play a role when speaking about conventional & organic farming; In conventional agriculture, cosmetic damage is managed through the use of pesticides, in order to supply consumers with apples of an aesthetic quality that they have become conditioned to expect.

In organic farming consumers, may have to be satisfied with apples that have some degree of blemishing associated with scab, a fungal-caused problem that does not affect the nutritional quality or safety of the apple, but has become associated with poor aesthetics.

Pests that significantly interfere with the productivity of crop plants can be controlled by Natural/Alternative methods & monitoring which is key to good crop management.
