About this document

South Florida Vegetable Pest Update by Gene McAvoy is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The South Florida Vegetable Pest and Disease Hotline reports that recent rains have benefited crops, but production is ending as the season progresses. Whitefly populations are increasing, posing threats to tomatoes and other crops, while other pests like pepper weevils and armyworms are also causing issues. Additionally, heavy rains have led to the spread of diseases such as downy mildew in cucurbits, necessitating careful management and scouting by growers.
