Monitoring vital to control olive fly
The Directorate of Agriculture in the Tower of the Levant urges farmers to continuously monitor olive orchards during the harvest season to reduce the spread of the olive fruit fly, which is one of the most dangerous pests affecting the quality and value of the produce. The pest causes damage to the fruit and accelerates rotting, adversely impacting the quality of olive oil and decreasing its market value, especially given its ongoing reproduction throughout the season. The report emphasizes the importance of early intervention through monitoring and surveillance, as well as implementing integrated management programs to control its spread, thereby reducing losses and maintaining the quality of the product.
