U.C. Davis Scientists Ask USDA To Halt Eradication Program
Thursday 29 May 2008 | LBAM Spray Bay Area
Dr. James Carey and two of his respected Davis colleagues have written an official letter to the head of the USDA, requesting that he urge CDFA’s A.G. Kawamura to revisit his plan to eradicate the Light Brown Apple Moth. These men of science point out that there is no evidence that the LBAM presents any greater threat than the dozens of other leaf rollers that live in California, and also that eradication is not scientifically possible.
There you have it, on official letterhead, from U.C. Davis to the USDA.
