The impact of border type on insect diversity in peach orchards of Georgia, USA

Monday, November 6, 2023

Location: Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center, Chesapeake G-H
In-Person Student Competition
The peach industry in Georgia, USA is worth approximately $64 millions as of 2020. Our goal is to determine the diversity of insects that can be found in and around peach orchards based on common border types found in that region. Those border types include: unmanage field grass, unmanaged forest, Pecan orchards, and Corn fields. By exploring the effects that border type has on the diversity of insect this will provide the future developer of management protocols and base line from to operate upon to balance pest reduction and beneficial promotion.
