Great turnout and incredible time at the Food Production Tour organized by the @APS_PHC committee at #planthealth2025 @plantdisease meeting in #Hawaii. We visited Dole pineapple 🍍 farm, the multi-crop Kahuku farm 🥑🥭🥥🍫, and ended the tour with a visit to the irradiation facility.

One reason why our industry is so SWEET is phenomenal researchers like Dr. Quesada, her exceptional team and ext agents that go above and beyond! 🍠🧡
Our NC #sweetpotato expedition continues! this time we visited J Roland Wood Farms and Kornegay Farms to get samples for our research. I was so glad to spend time with @Tatergirl76! 🍠 @HCollinsNCSU @Carlomatrax @NC_PSI @NCExtension @Sweet_Taters

What a day! Visited the #plantpathology department at TARI (Taiwan Agriculture Research Institute) and toured #passionfruit and #grape farms. The generosity and engagement of the growers is outstanding 🫶🏻! Learned how to inoculate virus in tomatoes 🍅 and about their incredible research facilities 😮🤓

Bacterial spot on tomato caused by species of Xanthomonas. Symptoms appear on leaves (initially on older leaves), fruit & stems. Lesions turn dark brown w/t a slight yellow halo. Hard to manage under wet weather & presence of copper resistant strains of pathogen #Tomato #Bacteria

Dropped off my first in-person sample at the newly relocated NC State Plant Disease & Insect Clinic!
Thrilled to have the PDIC team right next to the @NC_PSI. The struggling sweetpotatoes got top-tier care from amazing diagnosticians! 🍠

Yesterday was #dragonfruit #pitaya #pitahaya day! We toured several farms, most of them very well managed. We still were able to find some pest and diseases 👇🏻 including snail 🐌 damage on fruit and wet rot disease.
