BCTF Growers: Introduction to BC-DAS Models for Soft Fruit

BC Decision Aid System (DAS) program is an online decision support tool for Okanagan-Similkameen based tree fruit growers.  The BC DAS program allows growers to select weather stations in their local area to run critical insect and disease models throughout the growing season. The program links the model output to the BC Tree Fruit Product Guide spray schedules to assist growers in making on-farm pest management decisions in real-time. 

Have you tried BC DAS? If not, join us for more information about the program! Molly Thurston, BC-DAS Coordinator and Horticulturist will answer your questions about the BC-DAS tool. Focus is on soft fruit models for Cherry Powdery Mildew and Peach Tree Borer.
