PAYING THE PRICE The Cost of Beet Leafhoppers in Columbia Basin Carrot Crops By Gina Greenway, Greenway Research
T
he COVID-19 pandemic has shifted America’s eating habits. It’s hard to predict if any of the changes in consumption patterns will be sustained long term, but for now a lot of folks are cooking more, spending more time at home and shopping less frequently. With fewer trips to the grocery store, frozen and canned vegetables may be substituted for fresh more often than in the past. I don’t know if consumers will eat more frozen and canned carrots in 2020 and 2021, but it’s interesting to think about. According to the USDA, frozen carrot consumption has ranged from a low of 1.19 pounds per capita to a high of 2.83 pounds per capita in the last 49 years. Canned carrot consumption peaked back in 1972 at 2.42 pounds per capita, but looks to be trending upward since reaching a low of 0.68 pounds per capita in 2015. Maybe 2020 and 2021 will look like 1996 when consumption of both frozen and canned carrots was high. But even if consumption hovers around the average, the job of providing the processed market with a stable supply of high quality raw product remains an important one met with a variety of challenges. One of the most unpredictable and costly challenges impacting carrot and other vegetable and vegetable seed crops is pest pressure. I am always trying to learn more about the economic impacts of sucking insects, their interactions in vegetable crops and how the research community can provide tools to help make managing these pests less costly. One of the first steps has been to establish economic benchmarks for key pests in different crops.
Surveying the Field
To gain insight into the impacts of beet leafhoppers in carrot crops grown for processing in the Columbia Basin, I conducted an expert opinion survey of growers and consultants in the region. I hoped to better pinpoint the number 8

of beet leafhopper targeted applications typically made per season and to identify which products are used most often to manage the pest. I also wanted to gain a better understanding of the impact of beet leafhopper transmitted diseases on yield. Results of the survey highlighted esfenvalerate, cyfluthrin, imidacloprid, thiamethoxam and methomyl as key active ingredients used for beet leafhopper management.
After determining which active ingredients to focus on, the next step was to get a better idea of the frequency of use. To do this, I asked participants to estimate the number of beet leafhopper targeted spray applications typically made per season. About 20 percent of folks who responded reported making one beet leafhopper targeted spray application per season. Another 20 percent of respondents reported typically making two beet

leafhopper targeted spray applications per season. An estimated 60 percent of survey participants reported making three beet leafhopper targeted spray applications in a typical growing season. The frustrating thing about pests like leafhoppers is their ability to raise the cost of production and damage revenue at the same time. To better quantify the impact of leafhoppers on revenue, I asked survey participants to estimate how much yield would increase if beet leafhoppers did not exist. Responses ranged from 1 percent to 15 percent. I also wanted to try to gain insight into perceptions of leafhopper mitigation strategies. I asked participants to estimate the percentage increase in yield that could be achieved if they were able to improve the execution and timing of beet leafhopper targeted insecticide applications. Results ranged from 0 percent to 10 percent.

Estimating the Expense
To arrive at dollar value estimates of the cost of beet leafhoppers in carrots grown for processing, results of the survey were combined with pesticide label information, pesticide pricing information, and planted acreage, price and yield estimates reported by the USDA. Application costs were omitted based on the assumption that the majority of beet leafhopper targeted applications would be tank mixed. The overall costs of insecticides were estimated to range from about $3.50 per acre to $32 per acre but will

depend on application rate, product choice, environmental factors, individual preference and pressure from other pests. Yield was assumed to be 38 tons per acre, planted acreage was estimated to be 6,100 and price was estimated to be $84 per ton. Expenditures on beet leafhopper targeted insecticide applications were estimated to range from about $154,000
to $220,000, depending on product choice and pressure. Estimates of the value of lost yield attributed to beet leafhopper transmitted diseases will likely be a little bit different for everyone, as was indicated by the variation in survey estimates. It would be difficult to quantify how much yield is lost with a high level of precision, but considering how much different
scenarios of yield loss could cost the industry is worth thinking about. If 20 percent of acres planted are impacted by a 15 percent reduction in yield because of beet leafhopper transmitted disease, the foregone value rings in at $584,000. If 60 percent of planted acres experience a 7 percent yield loss, the forgone value would be about $817,000. The next logical step is to consider what can be done to reduce yield losses. One key tool is better information for improved decision making. Many survey participants believed proper timing and execution of insecticide applications could improve yield. If half of all growers in the region were able to increase yield by 5 percent as a result of the ability to make better decisions regarding timing and execution of insecticide applications, the benefit to the industry would be just under half a million dollars. Coordinating and expanding pest monitoring efforts in multiple vegetable and vegetable seed crops can help growers make proactive and effective management decisions, helping to reduce the costs of pests in the Columbia Basin.

GRIMMWAY GIVES

rom drive-thru giveaways in the Midwest to hand-delivered donations in Kern County, California, Grimmway Farms has committed to showing support for people affected by the COVID-19 pandemic by giving away fresh carrots and CalOrganic Farms vegetables. Since mid-March, the company has donated more than 1 million pounds of fresh produce to food banks, hospitals and non-profit charities across the country. In partnership with Kern County hospitals and California food banks, the company has engaged in relief efforts that have provided fresh produce to families in California, as well as Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Nebraska, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Texas and Utah. After recognizing a need to increase public food assistance, Grimmway team members worked with local and state organizations, industry partners and customers to find creative ways to use existing distribution channels to deliver produce to communities in need. This strategy reduced the logistical footprint of each produce donation, minimizing both costs and contact along the supply chain. This spring, Grimmway supplied more than 80,000 pounds of carrots to charity efforts in partnership with Midwest supermarket chain Hy-Vee. They focused public donation efforts around packaged whole carrots as they offer a long shelf life while maintaining their quality. The company also worked with charity networks to distribute over 70,000 pounds of whole carrots to urban communities.
In addition, Grimmway worked with longtime partner Hidden Harvest, a produce rescue program that employs farmworkers to harvest surplus crops in the field and transport the produce from packing houses throughout Coachella Valley, California. “Our goal is to deliver fresh food to those who need it the most,” said Jeff Huckaby, president of Grimmway Farms. “We connected with organizations that share that responsibility. We’re all working toward a common goal to keep our communities safe, and we’re committed to seeing this through together.” As the largest of Grimmway’s donation efforts during COVID-19, the company has provided over half a million pounds of carrots to the California Association of Food Banks (CAFB) since the start of the pandemic. CAFB is a network representing 42 food banks reaching 47 counties in California. Grimmway plans to continue supporting communities locally and throughout the country as they face the continued effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. “Our founders promised to provide good value and service every day of the year,” Huckaby added. “This year looks different than most, but through strong partnerships and a shared mission to feed the hungry, we’re still able to deliver on that promise and ensure fresh food is available to those in need.”

New Products Univerco Launches Patent-Pending G-Force Harvester Univerco has turned customer feedback into the latest addition to its harvester lineup. Manufacturing carrot and root crop harvesters since 1978, Univerco strives to continually develop products best suited for growers of different sizes and at different stages of growth. In recent years, the company has received numerous requests from growers in many countries for a two-row harvester that would be three-point mounted so that it could be compact, yet have a high harvesting capacity. This led to the design of the G-Force carrot harvester. Two high-flotation tracks allow the machine to operate in any field conditions and provide superior stability when going through bumps and rough patches, according to Univerco. These tracks are directional; therefore, there is no need to lift the machine when turning. Univerco has invented a unique, patent-pending motorized track that is placed behind the pickers. The track is automatically synchronized with the front pickers. Because the machine is three-point mounted, the operator has excellent visibility

on both pickers and the loading conveyor. Having an ergonomic design was one of the priorities in the design of the G-Force. The combination of ergonomic, compact design and the directional tracks makes it very easy to maneuver when entering and exiting the rows for each pass, saving the operator time. According to Univerco, the G-Force can be operated by a tractor most farmers already have on the farm, avoiding the need to invest
in a dedicated self-propelled machine, thus offering a faster return on investment. A fully automatic electro-hydraulic proportional system for the row finders and picker height control is designed to make operation easy. All functions are linked to a controller with an LCD screen, ready to adapt to future technology. Visit www.univerco.com.
Biological Insecticide Receives Label in California
BioSafe Systems’ BT NOW biological insecticide is now labeled to manage target Lepidoptera larval infestations in California crops. BT NOW controls larvae by using a novel strain of the bacteria Bacillus thuringiensis ssp. kurstaki (Btk) in a water-based formula. Once plants are thoroughly coated with BT NOW, feeding pests ingest the bacteria and it binds to receptors in their digestive system. Within hours, the pest stops eating and dies days later. In root vegetables including carrots, the product can be used to control pests such as cutworms, webworms, armyworms and caterpillars. BT NOW can be applied the same day as harvest and doesn’t produce harmful byproducts, according to BioSafe Systems. Visit20-12 www.biosafesystems.com. Carrot Country-.5H page.v1.pdf
APE Adds Water Treatment Products
Automated Produce Equipment (APE) has formed a new partnership with water processing company AquaHD. According to the company, many pack houses are looking to decrease their water usage and reduce wastewater tariff costs through the reuse of process-water. When attempting to handle these water streams, solids separation becomes the main challenge in the treatment process. AquaHD’s products fit these needs with hydrodynamic separators, static screen filters and rotary drum screens to filter particles and solids. These products are featured among other produce machinery and packaging solutions on Automated Produce Equipment’s (APE) newly redesigned website. Visit www.automatedproduceequip.com.

In the News Farming Takes Top Spot in Opinion Poll
For the first time in Gallup’s 20 years of tracking Americans’ views of various business and industry sectors, farming and agriculture is the clear leader. The poll asked respondents to rate their overall view of a list of business sectors. Farming and agriculture was already among the toprated industries, but this year it moved to the number one spot with a 69 percent positive rating, up 11 percent. The former top-ranking industries – restaurants and computers – remain in the top four, with the grocery industry rounding out the group. This year’s rankings reflect significant changes in the ratings of six industries, three of which are delivering vital goods and services to Americans during the pandemic. These three – healthcare, farming and pharmaceuticals – are all rated more positively this year than in 2019.
