Info

ORGANIC POTATO PRODUCTION populations below damaging levels. Releasing insectaryrearedbeneficial organisms into the crop early in the pestoutbreak may help control some pests but sometimes thesebiocontrol agents simply leave the area. For moreinformation, see Cornell’s Natural Enemies of Vegetable InsectPests (Reference 94), and Biological Control: A Guide to NaturalEnemies in North AmericaH (Reference 95).Regulatory Organic farms must comply with all regulations regardingpesticide applications. See Section 11 for details. ALWAYScheck with your organic farm certifier when planningpesticide applications.Efficacy In general, insecticides allowed for organic production maykill a smaller percentage of the pest population, could havea shorter residual and may be more quickly broken down inthe environment than conventional insecticides. Agriculturalpesticide manufacturers are not required to submit efficacydata to the EPA as part of the registration process. Listing apest on the pesticide label does not guarantee theeffectiveness of a pesticide. See Section 11.3 for moreinformation.Cultural control options available for potato insects include(see individual pests for specific recommendations):rotation to non-hosts (do not follow next season withpotatoes, tomatoes or eggplant)hand removalpropane flamingfloating row coveryellow sticky traps and tapetrench trap around perimetertrap tubers around perimetervacuum - leaf blower operated for suctionearly or late planted trap rows of potatoesremove solanaceous weeds from areas bordering potatofieldsstraw mulchWhen conditions do warrant an insecticide application,proper choice of materials, proper timing, and excellentspray coverage are essential. Thresholds developed usingconventional pesticides are often not useful when usingorganic approved products, which are often less effectivethan synthetic pesticides.Resources: Resource Guide for Organic Insect and Disease Management (Reference2). HNatural Enemies of Vegetable Insect Pests (Reference 94) Biological Control: A Guide to Natural Enemies in North America (Reference 95) At the time this guide was produced, the following materials were labeled in New York State for managing this pest and were allowable for organic production. Listing a pest on a pesticide label does not assure the pesticide’s effectiveness. The registration status of pesticides can and does change. Pesticides must be currently registered with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) to be used legally in NY. Those pesticides meeting requirements in EPA Ruling 40 CFR Part 152.25(b) (also known as 25(b) pesticides) do not require registration. Current NY pesticide registrations can be checked on the Pesticide Product, Ingredient, and Manufacturer System (PIMS website) http://pims.psur.cornell.edu/ (Reference 3). ALWAYS CHECK WITH YOUR CERTIFIER before using a new product. Table 15 Pesticides Labeled for Organic Potato Insect Management.
