Procedures: Control Non-chemical Control Restrictions on Infested Property When property is found to be infested with the golden nematode disease in the State of New York, then the owner or operator must enter into an agreement with the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets. The agreement restricts the crops that may be grown to either varieties of potatoes that are resistant to golden nematode or to an approved non-host crop. A non-host crop is defined as any crop which is not in the Solanaceae family. (Potato, tomato, and eggplant are in the Solanaceae family). EXAMPLE Non-host crops include alfalfa, carrots, corn, cucumbers, pumpkins, rye, and wheat. Post-resistant Variety Treatment (PRVT) Pest Management Program If the golden-nematode infested land is to continue in potato production, then a minimum of two (2) successive crop years of golden nematode-resistant potato variety must be grown. Following harvest of the second crop, the field will be intensively surveyed in accordance with the procedures described in Post Resistant-Variety Treatment Survey on page 2-3-11. All surveys must be negative for viability. If the survey is negative, then the farmer/grower may continue to grow either golden nematode-resistant varieties or non-host crops. The farmer/grower may also enter into an approved pest management program agreement. See Pest Management Program. Crop Management Sequence Farmers or growers may enter an approved pest management program that uses resistant varieties, non-host varieties, and susceptible varieties in a four-year crop rotation. See Systematic Use of Resistant Potato Varieties on page 4-1-1. Following two consecutive crop years of resistant varieties grown on infested land and a negative survey, growers may enter the crop rotation system at the resistant variety or non-host year. The approved crop rotation system cannot be entered at the susceptible variety year under any case or circumstance. If a farmer/grower chooses to enter the pest management program at year three (3) (non-host) and a susceptible variety is planted the following year, then the field must be surveyed after the susceptible variety is harvested in accordance with the survey procedures. If the survey is negative for golden nematode, then there is no need for conducting further on the land as long as the approved rotation system is followed. 4-1-4 Golden Nematode Program Manual 07/2008-01 PPQ
Procedures: Control Non-chemical Control An additional option is available for growers who wish to plant a non-host crop on an infested field without having to plant a resistant potato variety for two (2) years. With this option, the grower applies a single application of a registered fumigant at the legal dosage rate to the regulated property. The planting of potatoes or other host crops on this field is still prohibited. Steam Treatment Steam heat treatments can be performed at farm or warehouse locations. Steam treatment takes 1 hour and commodities can be released to the owner immediately after steam treatment. Steam treatment is not harmful to the environment and is noncorrovsive. No special precautions are necessary for the transportation of steam treatment equipment. The following items can be treated with steam heat before moving interstate from any regulated area: ◆ ◆ ◆ Used construction equipment without cabs Used containers Used farm equipment without cabs Treatment T406-d, Steam at NAP, Tarpaulin or Tent Steam treatment is not recommended for equipment or vehicles with cabs due to possible damage to electrical or plastic components. Steam heat treatment T406-d, Steam at NAP, tarpaulin or tent, used farm equipment without cabs, construction equipment without cabs, and used containers must be conducted under the following minimum ambient air temperatures, which vary with the volume of the treatment enclosure: 1. Determine if the following temperature and volume requirements can be met: A. If the treatment enclosure is 4,000 ft 3 , then the minimum air temperature is 40°F. B. If the treatment enclosure is greater than 4,000 ft and less than or equal to 6,000 ft , then the minimum air temperature is 60°F. C. If the enclosure is greater than 6,000 ft 3 , then this treatment is not recommended. If you cannot meet the temperature and enclosure volume requirements, then do not use this treatment. Important Use only a steam generator approved by APHIS. 2. Assemble the articles to be treated. 07/2008-01 Golden Nematode Program Manual 4-1-5 PPQ
