| 20 Jan 2025 | Special Episode: Overcoming Regulatory Hurdles to Innovations in Sustainable Pest Control with Dr. Agenor Mafra-Neto of ISCA Technologies | 00:40:19 | |
Surprise! On inauguration day, here's a special episode of Scaffolds focused on challenges in bringing non-toxic, insect behavior-modifying chemicals ("semiochemicals") to market. These regulatory hurdles hinder small businesses and innovation. Given the current emphasis on government efficiency, I explore this issue with Dr. Agenor Mafra-Neto, CEO of Isca Technologies, sharing his inspiring journey of founding a successful company and turning ideas into impactful solutions. | |||

On this week’s episode of scaffolds, I talk to Dr. David Crowder about the decision aid support system he directs for Washington state tree fruit – this is a really fun conversation and a link to the support tool is in the show notes– it is very different from NEWA and I think it’s worth checking out. After, Kerik talks about powdery mildew, and last but not least, we have our state of the state update on degree day accumulation and trap captures.

On this week’s scaffolds, I talk to Mario Miranda Sazo, a horticulturalist on the Lake Ontario fruit team about summer pruning. I had this conversation with Mario last week on Wedneday June, 26th– so keep that in mind as you are listening as he references time points. Also, over the course of the conversation, we mention a drawing in the lake ontario fruit facts newsletter, this drawing and more photos are linked in the show notes. Also this week, Kerik talks summer diseases, and Anna gives us our state of the state update on trap captures and degree day accumulation.

We're back with a new look and sound for Season 2 of Scaffolds! If you've been following along, welcome back. And if you're new here, Scaffolds is a a weekly roundup of the timely updates on insect and disease management as well as phenological developments across New York State for apple growers. We also have a new co-host, Dr. Kelsey Tobin, postdoctoral researcher in the Rivera Lab. Kelsey will take over for Anna Wallis, bringing us phenological, degree day, and pest event updates. Don't fret, Anna will still join us from time to time to share her expertise and news from around the state. Our regular hosts include Monique Rivera, Assistant Professor of Entomology at Cornell AgriTech; Kerik Cox, Associate Professor of Plant Pathology at Cornell AgriTech; and Anna Wallis, Fruit IPM Coordinator at NYSIPM. In this episode, we talk about what to expect and how to manage risk after a mild winter and warm temperatures in February and March. Monique talks about scouting and action thresholds for European red mites, and when to apply dormant oils. Kerik shares how to select a biofix, reducing early season inoculum, and the current apple scab forecast. Anna tells us about some exciting statewide scouting initiatives and events this season. Lastly, Kelsey brings us current degree day and phenology around the state. All segments recorded March 25 and published March 26, 2024. ___________________________ Links and resources:
