A new mechanised cultural practice to reduce Ceratitis capitata Wied. populations in area-wide IPM by Chueca, Patricia, Garcerá, Cruz, Urbaneja, Alberto, Moltó, Enrique

“…The Mediterranean fruit fly (or medfly), Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann) (Diptera: Tephritidae), affects most of the fruit species grown in temperate and tropical climate regions, causing significant economic damage. One of the classical cultural strategies against this pest is to gather and bury the remaining fruit after harvest, but this is economically unfeasible today. …”
