Coffee Berry Borer (CBB) is a damaging pest of coffee. This beetle bores into the fruit and damages the seed, thus affecting coffee yield and quality. If left unmanaged, CBB can cause over 80% cherry infestation and lead to immense damage to the Hawaii coffee industry. CBB is controlled using integrated pest management (IPM), which uses a combination of different techniques, as no single method will control CBB on its own.
UH-CTAHR welcomes new and beginning coffee farmers to join us at these informational CBB 101 IPM workshops which will provide participants the opportunity to learn about CBB biology and the basics for controlling this pest with current IPM techniques. The Hawaii Department of Agriculture’s Beauveria subsidy program coordinator will be on hand to talk about their program that assists coffee producers with the cost of approved-Beauveria products. |
