Agriculture is a significant sector in California's economy, producing nearly $50 billion in revenue in 2018. There are more than 400 commodity crops grown across California, including a significant portion of all fruits, vegetables, and nuts for the United States.[1] In 2017, there were 77,100 unique farms and ranches in the state, operating across 25.3 million acres (102,000 square kilometres) of land. The average farm size was 328 acres (133 ha), significantly less than the average farm size in the U.S. of 444 acres (180 ha).[1]
Because of its scale, and the naturally arid climate, the agricultural sector uses about 40% of California's water consumption.[2] The agricultural sector is also connected to other negative environmental and the health impacts, including being one of the principle sources of water pollution.
Value
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f5/Sacramento_rice_fields.jpg/250px-Sacramento_rice_fields.jpg)
The table below shows the top 21 commodities, by dollar value, produced in California in 2017.[1] Between 2016 and 2017, there were increases by more than 2% in total value for the following crops: almonds, dairy, grapes and cattle. The largest increase was seen in almond sales, which increased by 10.9% from 2016 to 2017, due to both increases in crop volume produced and the average market price for a pound of almonds. Dairy sales increased 8.2% from 2016 to 2017 due to an increase in the average price for milk, despite a slight decrease in total milk production. Grape sales increased by 3.1% from 2016 to 2017 due to an increase in price per ton of grape (from $832 per short ton ($917/t) in 2016 to $847 per short ton ($934/t) in 2017). Cattle sales also increased by 2.7% from 2016 to 2017.[3][4]

Specific crops
Almonds
California produces 80% of the world's almonds and 100% of the United States commercial supply.[5] Although almonds are not native to California, a hot, dry Mediterranean climate and developed water infrastructure create favorable conditions for commercial cultivation of the crop.[6] In 2020, there were 1.25 million acres (5,100 km2) devoted to almond farming in California, producing 2.8 billion pounds (1.3 Mt).[7]
Almonds are the state's most valuable export crop.[5] Farmers exported $4.9 billion worth to foreign countries in 2019, about 22% of the state's total agricultural exports, with the European Union, China and India as leading destinations.[5]
California almond farms import the majority of US commercial bee colonies to the state of California during the almond pollination season. Almond production in California is the source of several major environmental problems, including high demand for water and abundant waste of almond shells. As of 2021, due to a historic long-term drought in California, production was forecast to decline, and many almond orchards were being abandoned.[8]
Shipping disruptions, reductions in consumer spending, and trade disputes during 2020-21 caused by the COVID-19 pandemic affected logistics and pricing of almonds.[7]
Apple
For a common disease and treatment see § Fire blight and § Streptomycin.
Apricot

For a common pest see § Cucumber Beetle.[9]
Avocados
California farms produce 90% of all U.S.-grown avocados, with the great majority being of the Hass variety.[10] In 2021[11] the state harvest was 135,500 short tons (122,900 t) on 46,700 acres (18,900 ha) for a yield of 2.9 short tons per acre (6.5 t/ha), and at $2,430 per short ton ($2,679/t) that brought $327,369,000. Drought and heat can significantly reduce the harvest in some years.[12] The Polyphagous Shothole Borer and the associated disease it carries have been a great concern here since their discovery on home avocado trees in LA County in 2012.[13] Immediately eradication and quarantine efforts were instituted, and are continuing.[13] (See § Polyphagous shot hole borer below.)
Barley
Barley stripe rust was first found near Tehachapi in May 1915 on Hordeum murinum by Johnson and reported by Humphrey et al., 1924.[14]: 9 Hungerford 1923 and Hungerford & Owens 1923 found the pathogen on cultivated barley in the central part of the state and also on H. murinum here.[14]: 9 See also § Stripe rust.

![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d6/USDA_Irrigation_2011.jpg/220px-USDA_Irrigation_2011.jpg)
Almost all of the country's broccoli is grown here.[17] In 2021[update] that was 11,200 planted acres (4,500 ha), all of which was harvested.[17] The yield was 130.0 short hundredweight per acre (14,570 kg/ha; 13,000 lb/acre) for a harvest of 1,512,000 short hundredweight (68,600 t; 75,600 short tons).[17] There was only trace wasteage.[17] Selling at a price of $51.50 per short hundredweight ($0.5150/lb; $1.135/kg), the year sold for $631,455,000.[17]
For an invasive pest of this crop see the painted bug § Bagrada hilaris.[18]
The typical biomass of harvest residue in the coastal regions is 5 dry short tons per hectare (1.8 t/acre).[19] This isn't necessarily a waste product, as it can be useful as fumigant, see § Isothiocyanate.[19]
Caneberry
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5b/Rubus_ursinus_ssp._macropetalus.jpg/220px-Rubus_ursinus_ssp._macropetalus.jpg)
Caneberries (Rubus spp.) grown here include raspberry (see § Raspberry), blackberry, dewberry, olallieberry, and boysenberry.[20]
For a common disease of erect and trailing caneberry (excluding raspberry), see § Leaf Spot of Caneberry.
Cannabis
![Indoor grow, Humboldt County](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/aa/Humboldt_County_Indoor_Grow_2020.jpg/220px-Humboldt_County_Indoor_Grow_2020.jpg)
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c2/Emerald_Triangle.png/220px-Emerald_Triangle.png)
Cannabis is estimated to be the largest cash crop in California with a value of more than $11 billion.[21] The state provided most of the cannabis consumed in the United States prior to legalization which was intended to provide a transition to legal, licensed growing. The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requires a detailed analysis of the environmental impact of growers operations. Statewide, 208 growers had obtained regular, annual licenses by July 2019. At this point of some 18 months into legalization, 1,532 growers were still operating on provisional permits as they went through the CEQA process that requires extensive paperwork.[22] Smaller farms were given five years to become established under legalization before larger growers were allowed to enter the market.[23] Under the regulations set to expire in 2023, growers can have only one medium licence but there is no limit on the number of small licenses an individual grower can have. This loophole has allowed larger growers to operate.[24]
Humboldt, Mendocino, and Trinity counties have long been known as Northern California's Emerald Triangle as it is estimated that 60 percent or more of all cannabis consumed in the United States is grown there. Registering and applying for permits has not been an easy decision for many long time growers in these three counties.[21]
In Santa Barbara County, cannabis growing has taken over greenhouses that formerly grew flowers. In the first four months of legalization, the county had almost 800 permits issued for cultivators, the most of any county in the state.[24]
Calaveras County registered more than seven hundred cultivators after county voters approved a tax in 2016.[25]
Cherries
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d0/Cherry_Trees%2C_Cherry_Valley_3-23-13_%288594875223%29.jpg/220px-Cherry_Trees%2C_Cherry_Valley_3-23-13_%288594875223%29.jpg)
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/97/Cherry_Blossoms_boom_outside_a_brick_building_in_San_Rafael%2C_California.jpg/220px-Cherry_Blossoms_boom_outside_a_brick_building_in_San_Rafael%2C_California.jpg)
The California Cherry Board[26] is a state marketing order representing growers and intermediaries here.[27] The USDA FAS's Market Access Program funds international advertising especially in Canada, South Korea, Japan, China, and Australia.[27] The state produces the earliest crop in the year[27] starting in mid-April.[28] Lasting until early or mid-June every year, this is the second heaviest harvest after Washington.[28]
Planting density is usually about 100 trees per acre (250/ha) and the first real crop will be about six years later.[28] Honey bees are essential to pollination for this crop.[28] Cultivars grown here[29] are harvested by hand with the stem (pedicel).[28]
The center of the state produces almost all the entire crop[30] and San Joaquin County, near Lodi is the highest producing county.[28] Many of these are Bing.[28] As of 2022[update] newer Bing strains with better heat tolerance have recently been planted here as well as counties further south.[28]
Birds are common pests in cherry orchards.[31][32] See § Birds in fruits and § Methyl anthranilate for a repellent.
Cherry cultivars
Besides Bing, Brooks, Chelan, Coral, Rainier, and Tulare are also common.[29]
Citrus
The Mediterranean climate affords a lower rate of post-harvest disease[disambiguation needed] than in some of the world's growing regions, similar to the Mediterranean itself, Australia, and most of South Africa.[33]: 6 Postharvest problems that do occur tend to be mostly blue and green Penicillium spp.[33]: 6 The Asian citrus psyllid was discovered in Southern California in 2008 and eradication and quarantine are now underway.[34][35] (See § Asian citrus psyllid below.) DDT was formerly extensively used in this crop.[36] (See § DDT.)
Cotton
Gossypium spp. are extensively grown in the Imperial Valley.[37] For a formerly severe pest here see § Pink Bollworm.
Cucumbers
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/07/Persian_cucumbers_at_Campbell_farmer%27s_market.jpg/220px-Persian_cucumbers_at_Campbell_farmer%27s_market.jpg)
From 1997–2000,[38] the state's acreage varied between 10,500–11,000 acres (4,200–4,500 ha) bringing in $57,969,000–$67,744,000. By 2021[11] however the harvest was down to 1,038,500 short hundredweight (47,110 t; 51,920 short tons) from 6,700 acres (2,700 ha) for a yield of 155 short hundredweight per acre (17.4 t/ha; 7.8 short ton/acre), and at $23.2 per short hundredweight ($510/t; $464/short ton) that brought only $24,043,000.
Dairy
Dates
Over 90% of US production is grown here, and most of that in the Coachella Valley.[41] The distant second is Arizona.[41] The 2020 harvest was 49,300 short tons (44,700 t) from 12,500 acres (5,100 ha), for a yield of 3.94 short tons per acre (8.8 t/ha).[41] The year's crop sold for $114 million, an average of $2,320 per short ton ($2,557/t).[41] The harvest extends from the beginning of October to the middle of December.[42]
The detection of the Red Palm Weevil (Rhynchophorus ferrugineus) in 2010 was very concerning to this valuable industry.[43][44] See § Red Palm Weevil.
Figs

![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/03/Common_fig_-_leaves_and_green_figs.jpg/220px-Common_fig_-_leaves_and_green_figs.jpg)
Calimyrna is a common cultivar here.[45][46]
Commodity figs here suffer from many insect pests here. See § Carpenter worm, § Darkling ground beetle, § Dried fruit beetle, § Freeman sap beetle, § Confused sap beetle, § Fig beetle, § Fig mite, § Fig scale, and § Navel orangeworm.
For common diseases see § Fig Smut and § Alternaria Rot of Fig.
Fish and shellfish
Relative to traditional farming, aquaculture is a small part of California's agricultural economy, generating only $175 million in 2014.[47] Oysters, abalone, mussels, channel catfish, rainbow trout, and salmon are farmed commercially.[48]
Grains
Stripe rust is a continuous presence in the state.[14] It is believed to have arrived at or before the 1770s because newspapers reported it starting then, and because there is a greater presence today of stripe than leaf or stem.[14]: 3 See § Stripe rust.
Grapes
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9b/Pinot_noir_hand_harvest.jpg/220px-Pinot_noir_hand_harvest.jpg)

The 2020 table grape harvest was worth $2.12 billion[49] while wine grapes brought in $1.7 billion, down 15.3% year-on-year. By weight this was 17% lower versus 2018.[50] The next year, 2021[11] saw a much better yield. From 829,000 acres (335,000 ha) viniculturists got 6.94 short tons per acre (15.6 t/ha) for a total harvest of 5,755,000 short tons (5,221,000 t).[11] At an average of $909 per short ton ($1,002/t) they were paid $5,229,902,000 for the season.[11] Of that, 4,844,600 short tons (4,394,900 t) were for destined for processing industries (including wine, see § Wine below) and at $835 per short ton ($920/t) that was worth $4,046,382,000.[11] The fresh (table grape) harvest was 910,400 short tons (825,900 t) and selling at a price of $1,300 per short ton ($1,433/t), this sector was worth $1,183,520,000 for the season.[11]
The table grape and wine grape sectors are represented by the Table Grape Commission[51] and the California Association of Winegrape Growers.[52]
Diseases of grape
Xylella fastidiosa was first discovered here in 1892 when Newton B. Pierce found Pierce's Disease in Los Angeles.[53] For other economic diseases see § Pierce's Disease, § Powdery Mildew of Grape, § Red Blotch Disease of Grapevine, § Gray Mold,[54] and § Ozone for a mold treatment.
UCD's FPS performs disease testing, vinestock identification testing, and supplies vinestock.[55][56] FPS is one of the few National Clean Plant Network (NCPN) holding vinestock for grapes in the country.[55] See also § Foundation Plant Services.
Pests of grape
For insect pests see § Glassy-winged sharpshooter (GWSS),[57] § Blue-Green Sharpshooter (BGSS), and § European Grapevine Moth (EGVM).[58]
Some vertebrate pests are also significant and UC IPM has management recommendations[59] for them:
- Birds
- California Ground Squirrels (Otospermophilus beecheyi)
- Deer
- Pocket Gophers
- Rabbits
- Voles,
- especially the California Vole (Microtus californicus)
- Meadow Voles (Microtus drummondii)
- Meadow Mice (Microtus pennsylvanicus)
Breeding of grape
Although there is some resistance to Pierce's Disease in some Vitis vinifera varieties, none is immune – none will be productive and all will die.[60][61] The Walker group at UC Davis has discovered several monogenic and polygenic PD resistances in several other Vitis spp.[61] A few years later in December 2019, their Camminare Noir, Paseante Noir, Errante Noir, Ambulo Blanc, and Caminante Blanc were plant patented and released for licensing.[62]
AxR1 was a very popular rootstock here until the 1980s.[63]: 24–25 See also § Phylloxera of Grape.
Genetic engineering of grape
Up to around 2004 there was little understanding of what non-Vitis genes might provide immunity in grape, and would make good transgenes.[61] As of 2014[update] several candidate genes have been identified, several have been transferred, and some even produce immune factors that cross the graft union and so can be rootstock-only.[61] Proven transgenes include pPGIP (the polygalacturonase-inhibiting protein from Pyrus communis L. cv 'Bartlett', identified by Stotz et al.[64][65] at UCD) employed in a large number of transformations at several labs at UCD,[61] HNEsp-HNE-GSTA-cecropin B (a protein chimera of pGIP and cecropin B) and PGIPsp-HNE-GSTA-cecropin B (another cecropin B chimera) from Dandekar et al.[66] at UCD and Los Alamos,[61] HxfA from the Kirkpatrick lab at UCD,[61] an XfDSF catalyst (catalyzing the disease's synthesis of its diffusible signal factors) from Lindow et al. at UC Berkeley,[61] and programmed cell death inhibitors from the Gilchrist lab at UCD.[61] (See § Pierce's Disease.)
Lettuce
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/65/IN_LETTUCE_FIELDS_ALONG_THE_COLORADO_RIVER%2C_MEXICAN_FARM_WORKER_CARRIES_BOXES_TO_FIELD_PICKERS_-_NARA_-_549084.jpg/220px-IN_LETTUCE_FIELDS_ALONG_THE_COLORADO_RIVER%2C_MEXICAN_FARM_WORKER_CARRIES_BOXES_TO_FIELD_PICKERS_-_NARA_-_549084.jpg)
Aphids are a major problem for lettuce on the Central Coast.[67] See § Nasonovia ribisnigri for an important aphid, and § Toxomerus marginatus and § Platycheirus stegnus for biocontrols.
The Beet Armyworm (BAW, Spodoptera exigua) is a polyphagous insect pest in this crop.[68] There is wide geographic variation in timing with BAW, the San Joaquin Valley being vulnerable more in fall than spring, the Central Coast late summer, and lower desert valleys September and October in established crops and November and December in young plants.[68] Natural control is significant, from parasitoids Hyposoter exiguae, Chelonus insularis, and Lespesia archippivora, and Spodoptera exigua nuclear polyhedrosis virus (SeNPV).[69][68] Discing as soon as possible after harvest and weed control to deny alternate hosts will help.[68] Insecticides used include methoxyfenozide, Bacillus thuringiensis ssp. aizawai, SeNPV, chlorantraniliprole, spinosad, indoxacarb, emamectin benzoate, methomyl, ζ-cypermethrin, and permethrin.[68] In organic, Bacillus thuringiensis and Entrust are used but note that any spinosad (including Entrust) will also harm the parasitoids.[68]
Timber
Almost 40% of the state is forest, 39.7 million acres (16.1 million hectares; 62,000 square miles; 161,000 square kilometres).[70] Of that 16.7 million acres (6.8 million hectares; 26,100 square miles; 68,000 square kilometres) was maintained as timberland as of 1996[update] of which about 77% is softwood.[70] Most lumber grown here is used here in the construction industry and some additional lumber is imported from nearby states and provinces.[70]
Nectarines

Because nectarines are hairless peaches, for most information see § Peaches.
Cultivars of nectarine
UCANR recommends[71] cultivars for the state:
- August Fire
- Zee Fire
- September Bright
- Diamond Bright
- Spring Bright
- Arctic Pride
- Arctic Snow
- August Red
- Diamond Ray
- Honey Blaze
- Honey Royale
- Ruby Diamond
- Summer Bright
- Summer Fire
Okra
Okra is not produced in any significant amount here.[72] Imperial County grows the largest number of acres in the state.[72]
Olives
Olives throughout the state suffer from the introduced Olive Fruit Fly here.[73] Neofusicoccum mediterraneum, Diplodia mutila, and D. seriata cause significant disease here.[74] More specific controls than currently available are needed for N. mediterraneum in highly susceptible cultivars, namely Sevillano and Gordal, and early harvest may be needed for D. seriata.[74] See § Olive Fruit Fly, § Neofusicoccum mediterraneum, § Diplodia mutila, and § Diplodia seriata.
Parsley
Soil solarization is an alternative to soil treatment with methyl bromide.[75] Stapleton et al., 2005 eliminate almost 100% of annual weeds in this crop with solarization alone.[75] It completely fails against yellow nutsedge however.[75] (See § Soil solarization.)

California is the country's largest grower of peaches, producing about 70% of the total.[76]
The California Freestone Peach Association (CFPA)[77] and California Canning Peach Association/California Cling Peach Board (CCPA)[77][78] represent the industry.[79] (Although the CFPA is a separate incorporation, it has always been operated by the CCPA's staff.) The overwhelming majority of the country's peaches are grown here, in 2020[update] 468,000 short tons (425,000 t) for sales of $308.3 million.[80] Since 1980 the total value of the harvest has been slightly increasing.[80] The acreage (hectares) planted in peach has been declining however, down to 73,000 acres (30,000 ha) as of 2020[update].[80]
As of 2021[update] cling deliveries for processing purposes have been on a downward trend for years.[81] From 430,000 short tons (390,000 t) in 2010, delivered tonnage declined to 225,000 short tons (204,000 t) in 2021.[81] Cling yield shows no clear trend over the same time, bouncing between 18.1 short tons per acre (41 t/ha) and 15.3 short tons per acre (34 t/ha).[81]
Prices have been trending mostly upward, from $317 per short ton ($349/t) in 2012 to $518 per short ton ($571/t).[81]
CCPA expects 2022 deliveries to be between 214,200–232,400 short tons (194,300–210,800 t) from a yield of 15.3–16.6 short tons per acre (34–37 t/ha).[81]

Integrated pest management in peach
Regional Integrated Pest Management Centers (Regional IPM Centers) hosts a suggested IPM plan for peach.[91] UC IPM provides even more detailed integrated pest management information.[88]
Disease IPM in peach
Fungal disease IPM in peach
UC IPM recommends treatment timings[92] and resistance management practices[93] specifically for peach IPM.
Pear
![flowers](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a2/Pear_tree_flowers.jpg/220px-Pear_tree_flowers.jpg)
![Trees](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/64/NRCSCA06117_-_California_%281143%29%28NRCS_Photo_Gallery%29.tif/lossless-page1-220px-NRCSCA06117_-_California_%281143%29%28NRCS_Photo_Gallery%29.tif.png)
Cultivation is heavily pesticide-dependent.[94] In the 1970s that put growers on the "pesticide treadmill" – increasing control costs, resistance, and resurgence of previously controlled adversaries.[94] In response the orchards, the UC system, and Sacramento have put together IPM plans which have increased control and decreased applications.[94] For a common disease and treatment see § Fire blight and § Streptomycin.
UCR provides integrated pest management best practices through UCANR.[95] Pear Psylla is one of the most serious of these pests, both due to its speed of insecticide resistance evolution and because it vectors[96] the pear decline phytoplasma.[97] The Asian pears P. serotina and P. ussuriensis have been widely used as rootstocks but are not being used in new plantings because their severe vulnerability to the decline phytoplasma.[97] The California Pear Sawfly (Pristiphora abbreviata, not to be confused with the Pear Slug Caliroa cerasi) is a minor pest here and usually easily controlled.[98] UC IPM recommends Entrust and Success (two Spinosad formulations).[98] [98]
Pistachios
Ferrisia gilli is an economically significant pest of pistachio here.[99] F. gilli was formerly known as a California population of F. virgata, only being studied sufficiently to recognize that it is distinguishable from F. virgata due to its severe impact on pistachio and almond in this state.[99] Jackrabbits, cottontails, and brush rabbits mostly damage pistachio trees when other food sources run out in winter or early spring.[100] UC IPM recommends fencing, tree guards, baiting, shooting, repellents, and trapping.[100]
Alternaria and Botryosphaeria dothidea are significant fungal diseases of pistachios here which often receive strobilurin, iprodione, azoxystrobin, and tebuconazole treatments.[101] See § Alternaria and § Botryosphaeria dothidea.

96% of the country's prunes and >70% of plums are grown here.[102] Of that, >80% has come from the Sacramento Valley since the 1960s.[102] For an invasive pest in the Bay Area, see § Plum Bud Gall Mite.[103]
Cultivars of plum
UCANR recommends[71] cultivars for the state:
- Howard Sun
- Santa Rosa
- Angeleno
- Friar
- Blackamber
- Flavor Fall
- Owen T
- Fortune
- Black Kat
- Black Splendor
- Black Diamond
- Black Beaut
- Flavorich
- Grand Rosa
- Simka

- Royal Diamond
Pome
Pomes grown here include § Apple and § Pear. For a common disease see § Fire Blight.
Pomegranates
In pomegranate (Punica granatum), Black Heart (or "Heart Rot") is one of the most common diseases, as it is around the world.[33]: 192 See § Black Heart.
Raspberry

Over 80% of US raspberries (Rubus spp.) are grown here.[104] The country's consumption has increased eightfold between 2001 and 2021.[104] This crop is 15% of the state's fresh berry sales.[104] Acreage (number of hectares) before 2014 is unknown, but in that year 6,800 acres (2,800 ha) produced 1.4 million short hundredweight (64,000 t; 70,000 short tons) selling for $434 million, then the next year 9,700 acres (3,900 ha) produced 2 million short hundredweight (91,000 t; 100,000 short tons) worth $547 million, and in 2016 9,700 acres (3,900 ha) produced 2.1 million short hundredweight (95,000 metric tons; 100,000 short tons) for $358 million, worth more than the peach harvest and four times the pear harvest.[104] The state has the opportunity to capture much of the market because as of 2021[update] most of the raspberry (55%), blackberry, and blueberry market in the country is imported, with Mexico supplying 98% of imported raspberry and they have probably reached their limit.[104] California produces the most fresh market red raspberries, while Washington is highest for the processed market.[104] Because the recent expansion has taken acres that had been pasture, pest and disease pressure is very small – making organic an easy option.[104] The available acreage for that kind of conversion may have reached the limit as of 2021[update] however.[104] Pre-transplant soil fumigation is necessary in conventional, making organic inviable if this kind of new(-to caneberry) acreage is not available.[104] Driscoll's is the marketer of 90% of raspberries from California and Mexico sold into the US.[104]
Leaf Spot is not common here.[20] See § Leaf Spot of Raspberry, or for an easily confused disease which does not affect this crop, see § Leaf Spot of Caneberry.
Rice
By 2006, California produced the second-largest rice crop in the United States,[105] after Arkansas, with production concentrated in six counties north of Sacramento.[106]
California's production is dominated by short- and medium-grain japonica varieties, including cultivars developed for the local climate such as Calrose, which makes up as much as 85% of the state's crop.[107]
Stonefruit
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/06/Prunus_emarginata_2.jpg/220px-Prunus_emarginata_2.jpg)
Stonefruits are crops of the genus Prunus. For the largest harvests by weight see § Almond, {{Section link}}: required section parameter(s) missing, § Cherry, § Peach, and § Plum.
Diseases of stonefruit
For common fungal diseases see § Monilinia fructicola, § Monilinia laxa, and for the fungicide see § Benzimidazole.[101]
UCD's FPS performs disease testing (especially for viruses), variety identification testing, and supplies budstock[108] and rootstock.[109][55] See also § Foundation Plant Services.
Breeding of stonefruit
So much of North America's stonefruit is grown here that almost all available propagation material is adapted to California specifically.[110] Few accessions are available which are appropriate anywhere else.[110] Even so, these are really made for the previous situation in the state, in which lower densities prevailed and dwarfing rootstocks were not used.[110] With increasing mechanization there is a need for such rootstocks.[110]

Strawberries (Fragaria × ananassa) in the United States are almost entirely grown in California – 86% of fresh and 98% of frozen in 2017[111] – with Florida a distant second.[112][113] Productivity averaged 76,500 pounds per acre (85.7 t/ha; 38.3 short ton/acre), for a total of 1,461.2 thousand short tons (1,325.6×10 3 t) worth $3,100,215.[111] Of that 30.0% was from Monterey, 28.6% from Ventura, 20.0% from Santa Barbara, 10.0% from San Luis Obispo, and 9.2% from Santa Cruz.[111] The Watsonville/Salinas strawberry zone in Santa Cruz/Monterey, and the Oxnard zone in Ventura, contribute heavily to those concentrations.
Production has risen almost monotonically, from 2005 when 34,300 acres (13,900 ha) were harvested, yielding 600 short hundredweight per acre (67,000 kg/ha; 60,000 lb/acre), for a total yield of 20,580,000 short hundredweight (933,000 t; 1,029,000 short tons). The average price being $54.60 per short hundredweight ($1.204/kg; $0.5460/lb), the 2005 season's harvest sold for $1,122,834,000.[111]
The California Strawberry Commission is the Agriculture Department body which advocates for strawberry growers. The CSC provides information for both growers[114] and consumers.[112] Some towns have annual strawberry festivals, see Strawberry festival § United States. The Driscoll's company began with strawberries here and still grows and sells here, and they have since expanded to other states, countries, and types of berries.
Cal Poly runs the Strawberry Center[115] for both research, and producer education.

Regional Integrated Pest Management Centers (Regional IPM Centers) hosts a suggested IPM plan for strawberry.[111]
For Santa Barbara County specifically, Cooperative Extension SB provides detailed recommendations and practices.[116] For their cultivar recommendations see § Strawberry cultivars.
As of 2022[update] there is increasing interest and increasing progress in automated (robotic) phytopathology in this crop, especially monitoring for insects and UV-C application for mites.[117]

The use of soil fumigation was highly praised and widely recommended by the California Strawberry Advisory Board in 1967.[118] Strawberry production here has been highly productive ever since but also highly dependent on fumigants.[119] So vital was the most common fumigant – methyl bromide – that the ongoing phase out of MB has sent growers and researchers scrambling for alternatives.[118] (See § Methyl bromide.) One alternative specifically for nematodes is 1,3-Dichloropropene, however some of the finely textured soils in some of the state's soil regions reduce its efficacy, and as of 2010[update] there are restrictions in some townships on maximum rates.[118] Soil solarization is another option.[75] Stapleton et al., 2005 eliminate almost 100% of annual weeds in this crop with solarization alone.[75] It completely fails against yellow nutsedge however.[75] (See § Soil solarization.)
Various strains of Botrytis cinerea are the most common and most impactful disease of this crop.[111][120] Botrytis leaf spot was first discovered here.[121] Conventional strawberry requires many fungicide sprays per season.[120] Losses can commonly be 30–40% if fungicides are not competently employed, or not permitted as with organic.[111] If lower temperatures and high rain persist unusually long, such a control failure will cost 50–60% of the yield – at this point the season is abandoned and 100% of revenue will be lost.[111] See § Botrytis cinerea, § Pyraclostrobin, § Thiophanate-methyl, § Fenhexamid, § Cyprodinil, § Boscalid, § Pethiopyrad, § Iprodione, § Fluopyram, § Fludioxonil, and § Isofetamid for fungicides, resistance, and other information.
Strawberry crown rot is a major disease here as it is in any productive growing region.[122] Genetic markers for CR resistance would make a significant difference in yield.[122] Shaw et al., 2008 is a starting point for such screening, using the markers they found.[122] See § Strawberry crown rot and § Phytophthora cactorum.
Daugovish et al., 2012 finds the introduction of drip irrigation has reduced asymptomatic Colletotrichum acutatum presence in nurseries, and thus lower anthracnose in the resulting transplants.[123] See § Strawberry anthracnose and for a treatment see § Natamycin.[87]
The only effective treatment of Fusarium Wilt may be genetic resistance.[124] Pincot et al., 2018 tested UCD varieties for resistance and located Fw1, a dominant gene explaining almost all FW resistance.[124] Fw1 is very likely to be a toll/interleukin-1 receptor (TIR) nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat (NB-LRR) gene.[124] They also identify seven accessions which are fw1 (recessive susceptible homozygous) yet nonetheless resistant, and thus predicted to carry yet-unidentified novel genetics.[124] See § Fusarium Wilt of Strawberry.
No cultivar has full resistance to Powdery Mildew, and the partial resistance that is available varies widely.[111] Palmer & Holmes 2021 finds increasing resistance/declining efficacy to most of the most commonly applied ingredients, in Oxnard, California.[125] For the causative microbe see § Podosphaera aphanis.
For other diseases see § Verticillium Wilt of Strawberry and § Strawberry Crinkle Virus.
Pests of strawberry
Insects are a constant concern.[126][127] The Beet Armyworm (BAW, Spodoptera frugiperda) skeletonizes leaves, damages crowns, and then begins eating the berries.[127] BAW is especially a problem of the southern and Santa Maria strawberry zones, but can damage transplant crowns anywhere in the state.[127] Egg deposition is most often in the fall.[127] Overwintering is possible and will produce earlier and more severe infestations.[127] BAW is controlled by a parasitoid wasp, Hyposoter exiguae, and by Spodoptera exigua nuclear polyhedrosis virus (SeNPV)[69] but additional control may be needed.[127] Insecticides during transplanting are needed sometimes in the southern areas, but sometimes not due to natural controls.[127] A good part of control relies only on weed management in the surrounding area, depriving BAW of alternate hosts.[127] Further control may be needed using insecticides including methoxyfenozide, spinetoram, Bacillus thuringiensis ssp. kurstaki, diazinon.[127] Organic control requires all of the non-insecticide methods (aggressive weeding, wasps, virus) plus Bacillus thuringiensis ssp. aizawai or Entrust which contains spinosad.[127]
Birds have mixed effects on strawberries here.[128] They both eat farmed fruits but also the insects that trouble them.[128] Hedgerows attract birds, whether that is desirable or undesirable.[128] In the Central Valley, farm hedgerows, treelines, and woodlands will have 2x–3x the number of species and 3x–6x the population size of birds than an unvegetated edge of a field.[128]
Whatever the specific effect of birds upon strawberry fields, large hedgerows in this state do improve both the yield and quality of strawberries grown nearby versus those grown next to smaller hedges or grassy banks.[128]
Weeds in strawberry
Yellow sweetclover (Melilotus officinalis L. Lam.), chickweed (Stellaria spp.), annual bluegrass (Poa annua Linnaeus), shepherd's purse (Capsella bursa-pastoris Linnaeus Medikus), crabgrass (various Digitaria spp.), spotted spurge (Euphorbia maculata Linnaeus Small), and yellow nutsedge are common annual weeds in strawberry.[75]
UCD's FPS performs disease testing (especially for viruses), variety identification testing, and supplies tissue or plants for propagation material.[55][129] See also § Foundation Plant Services.
For a major insect pest see § Lygus bug.[130]

The Davis campus is a major hub of strawberry breeding in the state, and indeed in the world.[131] The Knapp group[132] is a large part of strawberry biology study at the university, including the breeding program – of which Knapp himself is the director.[132] UCD's varieties may be licensed from ITC.[133] From 1986 Douglas Shaw headed the program, and starting in 1991 Kirk Larson co-headed with him.[134] In 2013 they attempted to negotiate a retirement arrangement in which they would start their own breeding company, licensing UCD's patented varieties.[134] UCD initially agreed but, anticipating the loss of revenue from what would essentially be a spin-off, reversed themselves.[134] Shaw and Larson retired anyway in 2014 as California Berry Cultivars, licensed what they could and began to breed from those, and sued UCD for not holding to the previous agreement.[134] UCD countersued, alleging they had walked away with (stolen) unreleased germplasm and various other intellectual property violations.[134] A civil trial resulted and, although CBC rapidly lost ground, the judge suggested that UCD would also be examined and face some consequences if the trial were to proceed.[134] UCD and CBC settled with CBC forgoing $2.5 million in future royalties.[134]
Other strawberry species (Fragaria spp.) are commonly used in breeding, including F. vesca the Woodland Strawberry.[135] The UCD program is no exception and its genetic analyses also are used around the world by geneticists, other researchers, and breeders.[135]
The analysis of Pincot et al., 2018 incidentally identifies a likely bottleneck in UCD's germplasm beginning in 1975.[124]
CalPoly Strawberry Center[115] does not operate a breeding program of its own. Instead the SC screens the varieties that come out of all of the state's breeding programs for disease resistance.[136]
Driscoll's has its own private breeding program.[137]
Cultivars of strawberry
UC IPM lists and describes the most commonly grown varieties of strawberry here.[138]
UC Davis's Innovation and Technology Commercialization office licenses and sub-licenses[139] all cultivars created by the entire University system.[140] These are:
For Santa Barbara County specifically, Cooperative Extension SB recommends overlapping with two cultivar groups: Short-day and day-neutral.[116] For short day they suggest cvs. 'Benicia', 'Camarosa', 'Camino Real', 'Chandler', 'Mojave', and/or 'Ventana'.[116] For day-neutral, cvs. 'Albion', 'Monterrey', 'San Andrés', and/or 'Seascape'.[116]
As of July 2022[update] twelve nurseries are licensed to propagate UCD varieties: Cal, Cedar Point, Crown, Innovative Organic, Jacobsen Pacific, Larse, Lassen Canyon, Monte Vista, Mountain Valley, NorCal, Planasa, and Sierra-Cascade.[141]
cv. 'Camino Real' produces heavily in the Central Coast.[142] 'CR' yields over 4,000 pounds per acre (4.5 t/ha) more than cv. 'Chandler', and berries average 27 grams vs. 21 grams, in Fresno County.[143]
From the introduction of methyl bromide in late 1950s to the beginning of phaseout in the late 1990s, MB's great effectiveness encouraged breeders to ignore soilborne disease resistance in preference to all other traits.[144] Now, especially with the end of all MB use outside of nurseries in December 2016, resistance has become interesting again.[144] There is indeed a wide range of resistance to soilborne pathogens in existing cultivars and these resistances can be quite effective.[144]
Varieties bred here tie with Mediterranean varieties for the most inbred in the world, due to intense breeding specifically for this market.[122]
Treatments in strawberry
![White plastic rows](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/90/Strawberry_field_with_plastic.jpg/220px-Strawberry_field_with_plastic.jpg)
UC IPM recommends[145] pesticide selection criteria, resistance management strategies, application practices, and environmental considerations.
Fungicides are used many times per season.[120] Captan is by far the most common, averaging 7.3 applications per season, pyraclostrobin 2.5, cyprodinil 2.3, fludioxonil 2.3, boscalid 1.8, fenhexamid 1.4, pyrimethanil 1.2, penthiopyrad 0.9, sodium tetraborohydrate decahydrate 0.8, fluxapyroxad 0.75, and there were rare uses of Polyoxin D, Neem Oil, Fluopyram, Banda de Lupinus albus doce, Trifloxystrobin, Bacillus subtilis, Reynoutria sachalinensis, Thiram, Streptomyces lydicus, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, Thiophanate-methyl, Aureobasidium pullulans, Hydrogen dioxide, and Peroxyacetic acid.[120] UCR recommends fungicides and resistance management guidelines.[146] (See § Captan, § Pyraclostrobin, § Cyprodinil, § Fludioxonil, § Boscalid, § Fenhexamid, and § Pyrimethanil.)
The interests of nurseries and growers in maintaining fungicide efficacy necessitates coordination of their fungicide usage between them to slow resistance evolution.[111]
So beneficial was fumigation in this crop that Ansel Adams and Nancy Newhall selected it as one of the great achievements of the University of California system to photograph for their centennial book.[144][147] Methyl bromide, and then MB + chloropicrin, were the original fumigants which so impressed Adams & Newhall and this allowed great expansion of strawberries here.[144] Over the next several decades this encouraged breeding to ignore disease resistance in preference to all other traits, and only recently has MB phaseout made resistance interesting again.[144] (See also § Methyl bromide and {{Section link}}: required section parameter(s) missing.)
Anaerobic soil disinfestation doesn't work for weeds in this crop, but ASD combined with rice bran is a good alternative to MB and other soil fumigants for microbial diseases including Verticillium dahliae.[148]
Tomatoes
Fresh market tomatoes
The Federal Risk Management Agency provides crop insurance for fresh market tomato here, through the regional office in Davis.[149] 90% of FMT here comes from nine counties, San Joaquin County, Merced, Fresno, San Diego, Kern, Stanislaus, Kings, Tulare, and Sacramento.[150] In 1999 44,000 acres (18,000 ha) were planted, yielding on average 12.5 short tons per acre (28 t/ha), for a gross dollar yield of $5,500 per acre ($14,000/ha).[150]
Walnuts
California walnuts account for nearly all the walnuts grown in the United States. In 2017, walnut production was the seventh most valuable agricultural commodity in California, valued at $1.59 billion in cash receipts.[151]
Wheat
Wheat stripe rust is believed to have been present at or before the 1770s due to newspaper reports at the time, and due to the greater prevalence of stripe than leaf or stem.[14]: 3 Hungerford (1923) and Hungerford & Owens (1923) found stripe on wheat here and almost all other western states.[14]: 9
As first speculated by Tollenaar & Houston 1967,[152] in some years inoculum from the Sierra Nevadas initiates the state's epidemics.[14] Wheat sown in the fall (autumn) in the valleys suffers from stripe rust carried from wild grasses in the mountains.[14] This is not the only source however, as stripe will also overwinter in Sacramento Valley wheat cover.[14] See § Stripe rust.
Wine
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a4/Napa_Valley_Silverado_Trail.jpg/220px-Napa_Valley_Silverado_Trail.jpg)
California wine production has a rich viticulture history since 1680 when Spanish Jesuit missionaries planted Vitis vinifera vines native to the Mediterranean region in their established missions to produce wine for religious services. In the 1770s, Spanish missionaries continued the practice under the direction of the Father Junípero Serra who planted California's first vineyard at Mission San Juan Capistrano.[153][154]
Its contemporary wine production grew steadily since the end of Prohibition, but mostly known for its sweet, port-style and jug wine products. As the market favored French brands, California's table wine business grew modestly,[155] but quickly gained international prominence at the Paris Wine Tasting of 1976, when renown French oenophiles, in a blind tasting, ranked the California wines higher than the primer French labels in the Chardonnay (white) and Cabernet Sauvignon (red) categories.[156] The result caused a 'shock' in viticulture industry since France was regarded as foremost producer of the world's finest table wines. This event contributed to expanding the recognition and prestige of vintners in the New World, specifically, the "Golden State."[157]
The state produces about ninety percent of the American wine supply and is the fourth largest wine producer among the world's independent nations.[158][159] California has more than 4,200 wineries ranging from home-grown and small boutiques to large corporations with international distribution, and even more vineyards and growers, at close to 6,000.[158][160] Wine Country, in Northern California, is an internationally-recognized premier wine-growing region.Livestock
Fowl
The domestic fowl industry suffers from avian malaria.[161][162] Chickens (Gallus gallus/G. domesticus) and ducks (Anas platyrhynchos domesticus) are commonly infected, as well as various wild birds.[161] Testing has been done since the Herman group made the first reports of P. relictum infection, in Herman 1951, Herman et al., 1954, and Reeves et al., 1954.[161] (See § Avian malaria and § Plasmodium relictum for the parasite and vectors, and for testing.)
Honeybees
Honeybees (Apis mellifera) in and around Riverside developed DDT resistance in the 1950s.[36] Extensive use of DDT in citrus may have been responsible.[36] (See also § DDT, and § Citrus.)
Regions
Central Valley
The Central Valley of California is one of the world's most productive agricultural regions.[163] More than 230 crops are grown there.[163] On less than one percent of the total farmland in the United States, the Central Valley produces eight percent of the nation's agricultural output by value: US$43.5 billion in 2013.[164] The top four counties in agricultural sales (2007 data) in the U.S. are in California's Central Valley: Fresno ($3.731 billion), Tulare ($3.335 billion), Kern ($3.204 billion), and Merced ($2.330 billion).[165][166]
Its agricultural productivity relies on irrigation both from surface water diversions and from groundwater pumping (wells). About one-sixth of the irrigated land in the U.S. is in the Central Valley.[167] Central Valley groundwater pollution is an ongoing environmental issue in the area.
There are 6,000 almond growers who produced more than 1.8 million tonnes in 2013, about 60 percent of the world's supply.[168][169]
Parts of the Valley are quarantine as of July 2022[update] due to an ongoing pest eradication.[170][171] The Peach Fruit Fly was found in Chowchilla and this is a threat not only here, but could spread to the entire state, and to a lesser degree the entire country and other locations around the world.[170][171] See § Peach Fruit Fly.
Salinas Valley
The Salinas Valley, located within Monterey County, is one of the most productive agricultural regions in California. Monterey County grows over 50% of the national production for leaf lettuce, head lettuce, and celery. It also produces significant percentages of the country's broccoli, spinach, cauliflower, and strawberries.[172] The area is also a significant producer of organic produce, with 68,868 acres in cultivation and annual sales of $412,347,000.
Organic farming
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/38/Organic-vegetable-cultivation.jpeg/220px-Organic-vegetable-cultivation.jpeg)
California has more certified organic farms than any other state. In 2016, more than a million acres in the state were certified organic.[173] CA grows 90% or more of the U.S. production of Organic almonds, artichokes, avocados, broccoli, cauliflower, celery, dates, figs, grapes, strawberries, lemons, lettuce, plums, and walnuts.[174]
There are two primary laws that regulate organic production: at a federal level, the Organic Foods Production Act of 1990 and at a state level, the California Organic Food and Farming Act of 2016. Both laws lay out standards for production, processing, handling and retailing that must be followed in order to label a product as "organic". The USDA, California Organic Products Advisory Committee, and the California County Agricultural Commissioners monitor and ensure these standards are followed by administering enforcement actions for any violations.[175]
Any agricultural operation selling more than $5,000 in products per year is required to acquire organic certification, if they seek to sell their products under the organic label. Multiple organizations are accredited to certify operations organic.[176]
Environmental and natural resources
Water use
The largest overall water users in California are the environment, agriculture and urban/ municipal uses.[2] In an average year, about 40% of California's water consumption, or approximately 34.1 million acre-foot (4.21×1010 cubic metres), is used for agricultural purposes. However, the exact proportion of total water usage for agriculture can vary widely between 'wet' and 'dry' years, where in wet years, agriculture is responsible for closer to 30% of total water consumption and in dry years, agriculture is responsible for closer to 60% of total water consumption.[2] Water for agriculture is used to irrigate more than 9 million acres (36,000 square kilometres) of cropland annually.[177]
Water for agriculture comes from two primary sources: surface water and groundwater. Surface waters include natural lakes, rivers, and streams, as well as large network of human-built reservoirs and a complex distribution system of aqueducts and canals that carry water from the location of the source to the agricultural users.[177] Groundwater aquifers range in depth and accessibility across the state, and historically have been used to supplement surface water supplies in dry years.[178]
California is one of the top five states in water use for livestock. Water withdrawals for livestock use in California were 101–250 million US gallons (380,000,000–950,000,000 L)/day in 2010.[179]
Water quality
Agricultural impacts on water quality concentrate around concerns of the following contaminants: nutrients, pesticides, salts, pollutants, sediment, pathogens, and heavy metals.[180] These contaminants enter water bodies through above-ground surface runoff of rainwater or excess irrigation water, or percolating through the soil and leaching into groundwater. Water quality concerns affect most regions of the state and tend to be exacerbated during periods of drought.[181]
At present, all irrigated agricultural operations in the State are required to participate in the Irrigated Lands Regulatory Program.[182] The regulatory program began after the California Legislature passed Senate Bill 390 (SB390) in 1990, that eliminated a blanket waiver for agricultural operations to discharge wastewater without any specific environmental standards.[183]
Water supply
A major source for Southern California's water supply, both agricultural and urban, is the Colorado River from which an aqueduct has been built to transport the water from the river to Riverside.[184] Another aspect of the agricultural water supply in California is the transfer of water that takes place from northern to southern California. In northern California, the Shasta Dam contains the flow of the Sacramento River, preserving water for California's use, and pumping stations in the California Delta extract water transferring that water across the San Joaquin Valley and southward.[185] A key component to the distribution of the water supply are the irrigation districts and water agencies who are responsible for delegating water as to meet the demand of those within the area as well as clarify and legal arbitration as to water rights.[186]
The agency tasked with overseeing the state's water supply and any projects associated with the upkeep of the supply is the California Department of Water Resources (CDWR).[187] As part of the 2019-2020 California Spending Plan, the CDWR received $2.336 billion with $833 million going towards projects overseen by the California Natural Resources Agency and $1.503 billion going towards the control board supervised by the California Environmental Protection Agency.[188] One of the CDWR's major projects is the State Water Project (SWP) which distributes 34% of the water that flows through its various channels.[189] The SWP also is one of the largest suppliers of hydroelectric power in the state.[189]
The invasive quagga- and zebra-mussels reached the state in about 2006 and threaten the already limited supply of farm water.[190] The mussels have continued to spread and present an ever-expanding threat to pipelines.[191]
History
Pre-1850
Peake & Fleure 1927 propose that many crop wild relatives and a climate with both a rainy season and a dry season are necessary for an area to become a center of agriculture.[192]: 8 Before human arrival a wide variety of crop wild relatives (CWRs) were already found here – and although most of land has a monotonously desert or near-desert rain supply – some has a climate type called Mediterranean.[192]: 8
Prior to the arrival of Europeans, the Indigenous peoples of California, with diverse societies mainly reliant on hunter-gatherer methods, practiced seed collection and forest gardening.[dubious – discuss] Some California hunter-gatherer tribes, including the Owens Valley Paiute, developed irrigation.[193] None of this developed into true agriculture however.[192]: 8 Despite CWRs and suitable climate, Peake & Fleure's expectation does not hold here.[192]: 8 No area of what is now California domesticated crops and became a center of domestication as happened in other similar parts of the world.[192]: 8
In the late 1700s, Franciscan missionaries established Spanish missions in California. Like earlier Spanish missions established in Baja California, these missions were surrounded by agricultural land, growing crops from Europe and the Americas, and raising animals originating from Europe. Indigenous workers from Baja California made up a large part of the initial labor force on California missions.[194] In the early 1800s, this flow of laborers from Baja California had largely stopped, and the missions relied on converts from local tribes. By 1806, over 20,000 Mission Indians were "attached" to the California missions. As missions were expected to become largely self-sufficient, farming was a critically important Mission industry. George Vancouver visited Mission San Buenaventura in 1793 and noted the wide variety of crops grown: apples, pears, plums, figs, oranges, grapes, peaches, pomegranates, plantain, banana, coconut, sugar cane, indigo, various herbs, and prickly pear.[195] Livestock was raised for meat, wool, leather, and tallow, and for cultivating the land. In 1832, at the height of their prosperity, the missions collectively owned over 150,000 cattle and over 120,000 sheep. They also raised horses, goats, and pigs.[196]
While the Spanish were the most successful farmers active in California in the early 1800s, they were not the only ones. In 1812, the Russians established Fort Ross in what is now Sonoma County, California, and intended the fort in part as an agricultural supply point for other Russian activity on the west coast. Despite Russian plans for the colony, agriculture at Fort Ross had low yields, significantly lower than the California missions. Inefficient farming methods, labour shortages, coastal fog, and rodents all contributed to limit agriculture at the fort.[197]
The Spanish (1784–1810) and Mexican (1819–1846) governments made a large number of land grants to private individuals from 1785 to 1846. These ranchos included land taken from the missions following government-imposed secularization in 1833, after which the missions' productivity declined significantly. The ranchos were focused on cattle, and hides and tallow were their main products. There was no market for large quantities of beef (before refrigeration and railroads) until the California Gold Rush.
1850–1900
In 1848, before the Gold Rush, the population of CA was approximately 15,000, not counting Native Americans. By 1852, there were over 250,000 people in the state.[198] and by 1870, 560,000 people.[199] This rapid population growth drove an increase in importation of agricultural products, and, within a few years, a massive growth in in-state agriculture. In the first years of the gold rush, the state relied on agricultural imports arriving by ship, from Australia, Chile, and Hawaii. During these years, there was rapid growth in vegetable farming for local markets. This was followed by an expansion of grain farming.[198] A shift in the economic dominance of grain farming over cattle raising was marked by the passage of the California "No-Fence Law" of 1874. This repealed the Trespass Act of 1850, which had required farmers to protect their planted fields from free-ranging cattle. The repeal of the Trespass Act required that ranchers fence stock in, rather than farmers fencing cattle out. The ranchers were faced with either the high expense of fencing large grazing tracts or selling their cattle at ruinous prices.[200][201] By the 1890s, California was 2nd in US wheat production, producing over one million tons of wheat per year,[198] but monocrop wheat farming had depleted the soil in some areas resulting in reduced crops.[202]
Irrigation was almost nonexistent in California in 1850, but by 1899, 12 percent of the state's improved farmland was irrigated.[202]
Luther Burbank moved to Santa Rosa, California in 1875, and developed numerous commercially successful varieties of plants over the next 50 years.
1900–1950
The 1902 Newlands Reclamation Act funded irrigation projects on arid lands in 20 states including California.
In 1905, the California legislature passed the University Farm Bill, which called for the establishment of a farm school for the University of California (at the time, Berkeley was the sole campus of the university).[203] The commission took a year to select a site for the campus, a tiny town then known as Davisville.[203] UC Davis opened its doors as the "University Farm" to 40 degree students (all male) from UC Berkeley in January 1909.
In 1919, the California Department of Food and Agriculture was established. The department covers state food safety, state protection from invasive species, and promoting the state's agricultural industry.
The Dust Bowl of the 1930s drove many people from the American prairie, and a significant number of these economic migrants relocated to California. Poor migrants from Oklahoma and nearby states were sometimes referred to as Okies, generally a pejorative term. In 1933, the state saw a number of agricultural labor strikes, with the largest actions against cotton growers. Cherry, grape, peach, pear, sugar beet, and tomato workers were also involved.
In 1942, the United States began the Bracero program. Lasting until 1964, this agreement established decent living conditions and a minimum wage for Mexican workers in the United States.
1950–2000
In 1965, the Williamson Act became law, providing property tax relief to owners of California farmland and open-space land in exchange for agreement that the land will not be developed.
The 1960s and 1970s saw major farm worker strikes including the 1965 Delano grape strike and the 1970 Salad Bowl strike. In 1975, the California Agricultural Labor Relations Act of 1975 was enacted,[204] establishing the right to collective bargaining for farmworkers in California, a first in U.S. history.[205] Individuals with prominent roles in farm worker organizing in this period include Cesar Chavez, Dolores Huerta, Larry Itliong, and Philip Vera Cruz.
In the late 1980s the Ives flower ranch was the site of a notorious employment case.[206] This ranch was in Ventura and involved Mixtec farm workers (from the Oaxaca state of southern Mexico) and illegal employment conditions.[206] The ranch paid $1.5 million in unpaid wages and fines.[206]
Through 1995 there were 50,000 Mixtecs every year in California agriculture.[206] They were about 70% of the 10,000 agricultural laborers in San Diego County, and had been spreading northwards to also work in Oxnard, Santa Maria and Madera County, and even into Oregon and Washington.[206] They were usually not the only indigenous Mexican ethnic groups – Zapotecs and Mayans were also usually working the same jobs.[206] In the 1990s it was common to arrive in Arizona first, work on an Arizonan farm, and then move here.[206]
2001–present
In the 2000s and 2010s, Californians voted for propositions which established new protections for farm animals. 2008 California Proposition 2 and 2018 California Proposition 12 both established minimum requirements for farming egg-laying hens, breeding pigs, and calves raised for veal. Few veal and pig factory farm operations exist in California, so these propositions mostly affect farmers who raise California's 15 million egg-laying hens.[207]
Agricultural crime
California nut crimes have involved the theft of millions of dollars of nuts (almonds, pistachios, cashews and pecans) in multiple incidents since 2013.[208][209]
Water theft for agriculture has been an issue in times of drought, with the State assessing fines up to $1.5 Million.[210][211]
Pests
Despite its expansive geography, some pests are so severe, so polyphagous, and/or so wide-ranging as to be economically significant to the entire state.
![alt = Larva/worm](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5d/Amyelois_transitella_larva_head.jpg/220px-Amyelois_transitella_larva_head.jpg)
The Navel orangeworm (Amyelois transitella) first entered from Arizona in 1942 and quickly began attacking walnut, date palm, and fig.[212] (See § Walnuts, § Dates, and § Figs. Despite its common name, being only a minor pest of citrus.)[212] In the decades since it has become a notorious pest of almond, pistachio,[212][45] and pomegranate and remains problematic for walnut[45] and fig[45][46] as well.[45] (See § Almonds, § Pistachios, and § Pomegranates.) First flight of NOW begins around April 17 and ends around May 29, and third flight is about August 8 to September 12.[45][46] Second flight is not as much of a concern.[45][46]

The light brown apple moth (Epiphyas postvittana, often abbreviated to LBAM) is a leafroller moth belonging to the lepidopteran family Tortricidae.[213] Despite its common name it is a pest of a wide range of crops, not just apples.[213] The moth was confirmed to be present in California in 2007, and spraying programs in 2007–2008 lead to the Light brown apple moth controversy.[213][214]: 233 Tavener et al., 2011 finds novaluron works well but only when carried by horticultural mineral oil.[215]: 56 [216]

Sellers et al., 2018 finds rodents and lagomorphs (jackrabbits, hares, other rabbits) don't seem to be a pest of walnut orchards here (see § Walnuts).[128] On the other hand, jackrabbits, cottontails, and brush rabbits certainly are a problem for pistachios (see § Pistachios).[100] The lagomorph biocontrol myxoma virus is indigenous here (that is, it is epidemiologically endemic) in native lagomorphs.[217] This was first disclosed in Marshall & Regnery 1960 a&b.[217] M & R found it in the tapeti (Sylvilagus brasiliensis) and the brush rabbit (Sylvilagus bachmani).[217]

![alt = Adult](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/68/Fly_December_2007-11.jpg/220px-Fly_December_2007-11.jpg)
Olives throughout the state suffer from the introduced Olive Fruit Fly (Bactrocera oleae) here.[73] First detected outside its traditional Old World co-occurrence with the host tree in Los Angeles County in November 1998, it has since spread throughout California and into Baja and Sonora.[73] OFF is native to the Mediterranean basin and appears in some of the earliest written documents of human history, and is now found throughout much of the world.[218]
Particular strains of OFF are associated with particular varieties here.[218] Burrack & Zalom 2008 find females have strong oviposition preferences for particular varieties and their offspring show better life history performance on those preferred varieties.[218] The introduction here has spurred much parasitoid research, hoping to control them with biological controls.[218] Daane et al., 2008, Sime et al., 2006, Sime et al., 2007, Yokohama et al., 2006, and Yokohama et al., 2008 all were undertaken to serve this state's need for parasitoids.[218] Yokohama et al., 2008 achieves 60% control in cage trials using a Psyttalia cf. concolor.[218] Daane et al., 2008 finds P. lounsburyi is especially specific to OFF over other possible hosts, and its selectivity makes it an attractive option.[218] Daane et al. 2009 discloses an undescribed Pteromalus sp. nr. myopitae first found here.[218] Overall there is much concern about offtarget impacts if these were to be released.[218]
![alt = Adult Nasonovia ribisnigri](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/66/Nasonovia_ribisnigri.jpg/220px-Nasonovia_ribisnigri.jpg)
Aphid are common crop pests here. Nasonovia ribisnigri is one of the most common, especially for lettuce.[67] See also § Lettuce, and § Toxomerus marginatus and § Platycheirus stegnus for the two most common biocontrols.
![alt = Slates Hot Springs](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ea/Corvus_brachyrhynchos_-Slates_Hot_Springs%2C_California%2C_USA-8.jpg/220px-Corvus_brachyrhynchos_-Slates_Hot_Springs%2C_California%2C_USA-8.jpg)
Birds are often pests in fruit cultivation here, especially in cherries.[31][32] In cherry orchards the most common are crows (Corvus brachyrhynchos), crowned sparrows: (Zonotrichia spp.), European starlings (Sturnus vulgaris), house finches (Carpodacus mexicanus), house sparrows (Passer domesticus), scrub-jays (Aphelocoma californica), and Yellow-billed magpies (Pica nuttalli), but also in apple, blueberry, and grape, and the American Robin is a problem for some of these.[32] See also § Methyl anthranilate for a repellent.
![alt = Adult](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e9/Glassy-winged_Sharpshooter_-_Homalodisca_vitripennis%2C_Ocmulgee_boat_ramp%2C_Juliette%2C_Georgia_-_7835576204.jpg/220px-Glassy-winged_Sharpshooter_-_Homalodisca_vitripennis%2C_Ocmulgee_boat_ramp%2C_Juliette%2C_Georgia_-_7835576204.jpg)
The Glassy-Winged Sharpshooter (GWSS, Homalodisca vitripennis, syn. H. coagulata) is a vector of Pierce's Disease and other Xylella fastidiosa diseases here.[219][57][220][221] Probably present since the late 1980s, the GWSS was only confirmed here in 1994.[220] GWSS was not obviously a threat until August 1999 when it vectored PD to over 300 acres (120 ha) of vineyard in Temecula, Riverside County, forcing its destruction.[220] GWSS was first detected in Solano in November 2021, and although as of July 2022[update] absent from adjascent Napa is considered a high risk for introduction.[222] The staff of the Napa County Agriculture Commissioner does inspections of all material entering the county to prevent that from happening.[222] GWSS is such a problem in Fresno that there are permanent quarantine, monitoring, and eradication activities there.[223]
![alt = Adult](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d0/Blue-Green_Sharpshooter_-_Flickr_-_treegrow.jpg/220px-Blue-Green_Sharpshooter_-_Flickr_-_treegrow.jpg)
In 1997 the Blue-Green Sharpshooter (BGSS, Graphocephala atropunctata, the primary PD vector) arrived here and the two have combined badly ever since.[224] Besides vectoring PD they are also themselves a sucking pest and Hewitt et al., 1949 found they will often additionally go through reproduction on the vines.[60] See § Pierce's Disease, § Grapes, and § Xf in stonefruit.
![alt = Adult](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/43/European_Vine_Moth.Lobesia_botrana.Tortricidae_-_Flickr_-_gailhampshire.jpg/220px-European_Vine_Moth.Lobesia_botrana.Tortricidae_-_Flickr_-_gailhampshire.jpg)
The European Grapevine Moth (Lobesia botrana, EGVM) was present from at least 2009 through 2014.[58] A 10 acres (4.0 ha) block in Napa suffered a 100% crop loss in 2009 due to a burrowing worm.[58] This was confirmed to be the EGVM by Gilligan et al., on September 30, 2009 (published in 2011).[58] (It is native to southern Italy and may have arrived elsewhere in the state, possibly being detected as early as 2007 by Mastro et al., and published in 2010).[58] Both USDA and CDFA impose quarantines if two moths are found within 3 miles (4.8 km) of each other within one lifecycle span.[58] At first the quarantine zone was 5 miles (8.0 km) around the detection sites.[58] In 2010, 40,000 traps revealed an expanded presence – in Fresno, Mendocino, Merced, Monterey, Napa, San Joaquin, Santa Clara, Santa Cruz, Solano, and Sonoma.[58] The first detection in Sonoma was around Kenwood on March 29, 2010, then a total of 59 across the County that year.[58] In 2011 only nine were detected on two sites in Sonoma, and despite the quarantine the pest spread to Nevada County in 2011.[58] The quarantine was lifted in Fresno, Mendocino, Merced, and San Joaquin in February 2012, only one insect was found in Sonoma for the year, the quarantine was lifted in Nevada, Santa Clara, and Santa Cruz counties in December, and was greatly shrunk in Solano and Sonoma in the same month.[58] No detections occurred in Sonoma in 2013.[58] The quarantine was lifted in Solano in 2014 but one EGVM was found in Sonoma for the year and so the quarantine remained in Napa and Sonoma.[58] The last detection being in June 2014 in Sonoma, all USDA and state quarantine and trapping activities ended with the declaration in August 2016 of a successful eradication.[58] See also § Grapes.
![alt = Worm/larva](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a5/Prionoxystus_robiniae_larva.jpg/220px-Prionoxystus_robiniae_larva.jpg)
Carpenter Worm (Prionoxystus robiniae),[225] Darkling ground beetle (Blapstinus fuliginosus),[225] Dried fruit beetle (Carpophilus hemipterus),[225] Freeman sap beetle (Carpophilus freemani),[225] Confused sap beetle (Carpophilus mutilatus),[225] Fig beetle (Cotinis texana syn. C. mutabilis),[226] [225] Fig mite (Aceria fici),[225] Fig scale (Lepiosaphes conchiformis),[225] and Navel orangeworm[45][46][225] are among the most important pests of fig here. (See § Figs and § Navel orangeworm.)
![alt = Larva](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/fc/Jblarva.jpg)
Japanese Beetle (Popillia japonica) has been repeatedly found here and repeatedly eradicated.[227] Monitoring and eradication continue especially because of the wide host range of the grubs but also due to the grubs' and adults' destructiveness.[227]
The Plum Bud Gall Mite (Acalitus phloeocoptes (Nalepa)) was first confirmed here in Santa Clara County in February 2019,[228] but may have been found in northern Marin in early 2014.[103] Certainly since 2019 it has become widespread in the Bay Area, as of 2021[update] reaching Contra Costa, Alameda, San Mateo, Santa Cruz, Sonoma, and north into Western Oregon.[103] So far PBGM is known to be a problem on plum and pluot (see § Plums) and not on other stonefruits, especially not almond, even almonds nearby to infested orchards.[103]
![alt = Adult](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a7/Silverleaf_whitefly.jpg/220px-Silverleaf_whitefly.jpg)
The Silverleaf Whitefly (SLW, Bemisia tabaci strain B) was first noticed here in the fall of 1991.[229] First appearing in the valleys of the state's deserts, it has caused about $500 million in agricultural losses here through 2019.[229] Further economic effects include $774 million in lost sales, $112.5 million in lost personal income, and the loss of 12,540 jobs.[229] SLW is intractable in the southern deserts, especially in the Imperial Valley, the Palo Verde Valley, the Coachella Valley, and the southern part of the San Joaquin Valley.[229] In the SJV this is worst on cotton.[229]
![alt = Damage to collard greens, central Los Angeles](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/76/Bagrada_hilaris.jpg/220px-Bagrada_hilaris.jpg)
A Painted Bug, Bagrada hilaris was first detected here in 2008 in San Diego County, Orange County, LA County, 2009 in Ventura County, Riverside County, and Imperial County; 2010 in Kern County, San Bernardino County; no new discoveries here in 2011; 2012 in Santa Barbara County & San Luis Obispo County; 2013 in Monterey County, Santa Cruz County, San Benito County, Fresno County, Tulare County, San Francisco; 2014 in Inyo County, Kings County, Merced County, Stanislaus County, Santa Clara County, Alameda County, San Mateo County, and Yolo County.[18] From here it has become an invasive pest of Brassicas throughout the southwest US, neighboring Coahuila, and the Big Island of Hawaii.[18] The most valuable crop threatened is § Broccoli.[18] Much of the research on this pest in this part of the world has been performed by the Palumbo group at the University of Arizona.[18]
![alt = In California](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a4/Lygus5.jpg/220px-Lygus5.jpg)
Lygus bugs are common pests here including the Western Tarnished Plant Bug (WTPB, Lygus hesperus).[130] A vacuum collector is often used for WTPB in strawberry, called the BugVac.[230] (See also § Strawberry.)
![alt = In California](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d6/D_suzukii_female1.jpg/220px-D_suzukii_female1.jpg)
The Spotted Wing Drosophila (SWD, Drosophila suzukii) is a major insect pest of soft body fruits here,[231][232] especially grape,[233] strawberry,[234][235] tomato, cherry,[236][232] raspberry and other caneberries,[237] peach and nectarine,[232] fig,[232] and blueberry.[238] Ganaspis brasiliensis is a parasitoid which has been successful as a biocontrol here.[235]
![alt = D. simulans](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/03/Drosophila_simulans-female.jpg/220px-Drosophila_simulans-female.jpg)
Other Drosophila species include D. melanogaster and D. simulans which vector sour rot and bunch rot pathogens between grape bunches.[233]
![alt = Caterpillar](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4b/Caterpillar_of_Estigmene_acrea._Saltmarsh_or_Acrea_Moth_%2837647451090%29.jpg/220px-Caterpillar_of_Estigmene_acrea._Saltmarsh_or_Acrea_Moth_%2837647451090%29.jpg)
The Salt Marsh Caterpillar (Estigmene acrea) is very common here, but usually causes no damage because they are a native pest with many natural enemies acting as biocontrols.[239][240] SMC can be significant in strawberry, see § Strawberries.[239][240]
![alt = Adult](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/34/Bactrocera_zonata_%2806410603%29_%286922932505%29.jpg/220px-Bactrocera_zonata_%2806410603%29_%286922932505%29.jpg)
The Peach Fruit Fly (Bactrocera zonata Saunders) has been repeatedly introduced and quickly eradicated here, in 1984[241] and in 2006.[242][170][171] Then on September 29 and/or 30, 2020, three PFF were found in Chowchilla, Madera County.[170][171] This presents a tremendous hazard not only to the area but to the state, and indeed the entire country.[170][171] Because the pest may spread from here to other countries, trading partners including the EU and New Zealand are also concerned.[170][171] They are considering restricting importation of fruits and vegetables from the state.[171] As a result, the Secretary of CDFA, Karen Ross has declared a biosecurity emergency and eradication efforts using methyl eugenol lures are underway.[170][171] Especially an immediate concern are California's $2.10b citrus-, $875m stonefruit-, and $1.19b tomato industries.[170][171] (See also § Chowchilla, § Citrus, § Stonefruit, and § Tomatoes.)
![alt = Adult](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/93/Cotinis_mutabilis-3.jpg/220px-Cotinis_mutabilis-3.jpg)
The Green Fruit Beetle (Figeater Beetle, Cotinis mutabilis) is occasionally a pest of ripened fruit, including apricot, caneberry, fig, grape, peach, and plum.[243] The larvae/grubs are harmless however.[243]

First identified here in 1992 in La Mesa, San Diego County by Haagsma et al.,[244] the Formosan Termite (Coptotermes formosanus) has been here since at least 10 years prior.[245] As with every other infestation anywhere in the world, it has never been eradicated, and is still present at the original La Mesa site.[245] In the time since there have been new infestations – mostly suspected to be independent introductions – in Canyon Lake, Riverside County in 2020, Rancho Santa Fe, San Diego County in 2021, Highland Park, Los Angeles County in 2021.[246][247] The Formosan Termite is a pest of sugarcane, and for another host see § Citrus, but it is most often a structural pest.[248]
![alt = Adult](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/cf/Diabrotica_balteata.jpg/220px-Diabrotica_balteata.jpg)
Cucumber Beetles (Diabrotica balteata, Acalymma vittatum, D. undecimpunctata) are common pests here.[9] UC IPM provides recommended practices for apricot,[9] see also § Apricot.
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/84/Daktulosphaira_vitifoliae._closeup.jpg/220px-Daktulosphaira_vitifoliae._closeup.jpg)
Phylloxera of Grape (Daktulosphaira vitifoliae) is a perennial aphid problem here.[63]: 24–25 The industry suffered a wipeout in the 1980s due to overreliance on one, non-resistant rootstock.[63]: 24–25
The detection of the Red Palm Weevil (Rhynchophorus ferrugineus) in 2010 was very concerning to this valuable industry.[43][44] It most likely arrived with in live palms which are commonly sold internationally.[44] The adults flew up to 900 metres (2,953 ft; 984 yd) in a day, and over 3 to 5 days that allowed dispersal up to 7 kilometres (4.3 mi).[44] A tremendous effort was made to trap and eradicate,[43] UCR's Center for Invasive Species Research recommended mostly insecticides, and quick destruction of any palms found to be infested. Pheromone attractant traps were very effective.[44] The California Fan Palm (Washingtonia filifera) and the European Fan Palm (Chamaerops humilis) seemed to be resistant.[44] The last sighting was on January 18, 2012.[43] Three years later on January 20, 2015, USDA's APHIS declared the eradication successful.[43] Its relative the South American palm weevil (R. palmarum) has killed increasing numbers of Canary Island date palms (Phoenix canariensis) and is expected to become a significant pest of dates in the future.[43] For a common host see § Date.
![alt = Orange](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a7/CulexTarsalis_4561.jpg/220px-CulexTarsalis_4561.jpg)
Several Culex mosquitoes are common here including C. quinquefasciatus, C. stigmatosoma, and C. tarsalis.[161] Insecticides are often used in their control[249] and as a result some species have undergone resistance evolution.[249] Mouches et al., 1986 finds one population achieved this via gene amplification of an esterase.[249] See also § Avian malaria.
![alt = Adults](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c4/Therioaphis_trifolii_21251242.jpg/220px-Therioaphis_trifolii_21251242.jpg)
The southern part of the state suffers from the Walnut Aphid (Spotted Alfalfa Aphid, Therioaphis trifolii).[250] Stern & Reynolds 1958 finds that from the beginning of the 1950s to the end of the decade severe parathion resistance had rapidly developed there.[250]
![alt = Los Angeles](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e7/Flesh_Fly_Los_Angeles_2015-08-06_5.jpg/220px-Flesh_Fly_Los_Angeles_2015-08-06_5.jpg)
The common House Fly (Musca domestica) is economically significant in poultry production worldwide, including in California.[250] From 1964 to 1969 Georghiou & Hawley 1972 finds rapid evolution of organophosphate resistance in a poultry facility in Moorpark.[250]
The Pink Bollworm (Pectinophora gossypiella) was devastating to cotton growers here and throughout the southwest.[37] Chu et al., 1996 reports a management program in the Imperial Valley in which government imposed practices successfully reduced populations.[37] This bollworm is now extirpated from the entire country including this state, thanks to the efforts of Osama El-Lissy and his collaborators.[citation needed] See also {{Section link}}: required section parameter(s) missing.
The Mexfly (Mexican fruit fly, Anastrepha ludens) has repeatedly invaded the southern part of the state.[251]: 16 Sterile insect technique (SIT) has been used to great success to eradicate them every time, both here and in Texas.[251]: 16 (See also {{Section link}}: required section parameter(s) missing.)
The Medfly (Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata) has also been controlled with SIT both here and in Florida, although before 1980 both states used malathion baits.[251]: 18 (See also {{Section link}}: required section parameter(s) missing.)
Tetranychus is a genus of spider mites.[252] Three species are common on cotton here[252]: 18 including the Pacific Spider Mite (Tetranychus pacificus) and the Two-Spotted Spider Mite (T. urticae).[253][252]: 18 and they are hard to distinguish because they are sympatric.[252]: 18 Distinguishing them is nonetheless necessary, because they differ widely in insecticide resistance, with the PSM the worst.[252]: 18 The PSM and 2SSM are also significant in peach here.[88] (See {{Section link}}: required section parameter(s) missing and {{Section link}}: required section parameter(s) missing.)
Weeds
Yellow Sweetclover (Melilotus officinalis L. Lam.), Chickweed (Stellaria spp.), Annual Bluegrass (Poa annua Linnaeus), Shepherd's Purse (Capsella bursa-pastoris Linnaeus Medikus), Crabgrass (various Digitaria spp.), Spotted Spurge (Euphorbia maculata Linnaeus Small), and Yellow Nutsedge (Cyperus esculentus) are common weeds here, including in strawberry and parsley.[75] (See § Strawberries, and § Parsley.)
Marestail (Conyza canadensis) is a common native weed here.[254] Glyphosate-resistant marestail first appeared in the state in the Central Valley in 2005 and this resistance spread unusually rapidly through the southern Valley thereafter.[254] Okada et al., 2013 finds several independent evolutionary events, and that these unrelated resistance alleles may have been passed along so quickly because C. canadensis can reproduce by selfing.[254][37]
In the Central Valley the most common weeds are cool-season grass weeds (Poaceae), thistles (Asteraceae), mustards (Brassicaceae), fiddleneck (Boraginaceae), warm-season grass weeds, warm-season Cyperaceae, amaranths (Amaranthaceae), morning glory (Convolvulaceae), and caltrop (Tribulus terrestris, Zygophyllaceae).[255] Achmon et al., 2018 dramatically lowered seed bank viability, biomass, and density of all these weeds, and improved tomato yield using biosolarization using tomato and grape crop waste.[255]
Cape-ivy (Delairea odorata) is an invasive weed originally from the Drakensberg Mountains in South Africa and Swaziland.[256] It was first observed here in 1892 and has since spread to every coast of the state, and into one coastal county of Oregon.[256] Two organisms have been found in its native range which could be introduced here as controls, see § Digitivalva delaireae and § Cercospora delaireae.[256]
Sea Beet (Beta vulgaris subsp. maritima) and Beta macrocarpa are introduced weeds here.[257][258] The allozyme analysis of Bartsch & Ellstrand 1999 shows free gene flow between these two and cultivated beet.[257][257]
Palmer Amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri) was first discovered in San Diego County by Sereno Watson in 1876.[259] It has since spread elsewhere, developed the worst multiresistance in the world, and become one of the most notorious crop weeds in the world.[259] In California it is found in all but the northernmost counties.[260]
California wild radish (radish (Raphanus sativus) × Jointed charlock (R. raphanistrum))[261] has replaced all of its ancestral populations in the state.[258]

Xylella fastidiosa
X. fastidiosa was first discovered here by Newton B. Pierce (1856–1916) in 1892.[53][262] It has ever since remained a constant pathogen of many crops here.[263]
Pierce's Disease
- See also § Grapes.
History of PD
When European grapes were introduced to this area – Alta California – in the 1700s they died off repeatedly, primarily due to PD but also insect pests.[264] The natives here were already growing several native grape varieties, especially Vitis rotundifolia.[264] In the opinion of Scortichini[264] this demonstrates PD's presence in the state from antiquity, that native grapes had coevolved with Xf, and that this is the reason for the repeated failures of viticulture here until mixed European/American varieties were tried.[264] This unidentified problem known only as the California Vine Disease devastated 14,000 hectares (35,000 acres) of vineyard around Los Angeles in the 1880s and Pierce was sent by the USDA to investigate.[53] In 1882 Pierce[265] was able to identify that most of the failure was due to the disease, and less to the insects.[264] For Pierce's contributions to its study it was renamed Pierce's Disease in 1939 by the state Department of Agriculture.[53][266]
Whatever the time of arrival in California and in North America, the current PD-causing Xff strains here show very recent divergence – in the mid-1900s.[267] This is likely due to massive expansion – or even introduction – of the current Xff strains, replacing the pre-existing strains across the state as grape acreage expanded in the 1970s.[267]
PD was assumed to be viral until the 1970s.[53][266] The first isolation and identification of the bacterium is variously credited either to two groups simultaneously in 1973, Goheen et al., 1973 and Hopkins & Mollenhauer 1973,[53] or only to Davis, Purcell, and Thomson 1978.[266]
In 1997 the Blue-Green Sharpshooter (the primary PD vector) arrived here and the two have combined badly ever since.[224] (See § Blue-Green Sharpshooter.) Only two years later, in 1999 together they inflicted over US$6 million in Southern California alone.[224]
The Glassy-winged sharpshooter (GWSS) is an invasive agricultural pest which arrived in Southern California in the 1990s and has since invaded the central part of the state as well.[57] (See § Glassy-winged sharpshooter.) It is an unusually effective vector of PD.[57]
PD today
The CDFA's Pierce's Disease Control Program coordinates response and research in the state.[268]
Alston et al., 2013 estimates that PD cost the state $92m in 2013[55] and over Tumber et al., 2014 estimates $104m annually in 2014.[224]
GWSS remains a common vector of PD and as such is a severe drag on the entire continent's wine grape and table grape pricing and supply.[57] In the Napa- and Sonoma- Valleys and other such costal AVAs PD mostly occurs in hotspots adjascent to small water flows.[60] These areas are defined by small streams and ornamental irrigation.[60] These are favorable habitat for the BGSS.[60] Lin et al., 2005 provides SSRs for differentiating between the state's various from grape-, almond-, citrus-, and oleander-infecting strains and Lin et al., 2013 for grape-infecting strains here and in Texas.[53]
The BGSS is known to thrive in higher temperatures and PD epidemics are more severe in hotter years, and there is evidence that global warming is increasing BGSS transmission of PD here.[269] Larger data sets are needed for stronger confirmation.[269]
There are two major divisions here, a lineage from Bakersfield and Santa Barbara and another from Temecula and the north.[267] Within the northern areas there is lower gene flow, probably due to the Mayacamas Mountains.[267]
Xf in stonefruit
Xf is also significant in stonefruit here, causing Almond leaf scorch disease and other diseases.[263][53] (See also § Almonds.) Xf isolates CFBP8071 and M23 are common on almond here.[263] Moralejo et al., 2019 shed some light on the European invasion of this pathogen.[263] Their analysis shows these isolates have a 99.4% nucleotide identity with those on grape in the introduced range – and more generally, these isolates, a European cherry infection, and PD isolates from both areas have a high degree of relatedness.[263] Chen et al., 2005 provides PCR primers, Lin et al., 2015 Simple Sequence Repeats (SSRs), and Chen et al., 2010 the first genome sequence for common almond-infecting strains here.[53] Lin et al., 2005 provides SSRs for differentiating strains from grape, almond, citrus, and oleander[53] While almond and plum develop leaf scorch (see also § Plums), Ledbetter & Rogers 2009 find that peach does not.[53]
Besides Pierce's Disease, the glassy-winged sharpshooter also vectors Xf among stonefruit and so its arrival threatens the world's almond supply (see § Glassy-winged sharpshooter and § Stonefruit).[57]
Other Xf infections
Xf has many other hosts. Chitalpa tashkentensis is a common landscaping plant here and elsewhere in the southwest that is also a host.[53] Randall et al., 2009 propose the subspecies tashke for these strains but it remains unclear whether this is a distinct subspecies and whether it endures in the overall evolutionary course of Xf strains.[53] Hernandez-Martinez et al., 2007 find the subspecies sandyi causes disease of oleander, Jacaranda spp., daylily, and magnolia.[53] Grebus et al., 1996 discovered the Oleander bacterial leaf scorch syndrome.[53]
Raju 1983 finds Xf without symptoms on wild Carneocephala fulgida, Draeculacephala minerva, the Blue-Green Sharpshooter (BGSS, Graphocephala atropunctata, a vector), Helochara delta, Pagaronia tredecimpunctata, and Philaenus spumarius.[53] Purcell & Saunders 1999 find infections in plants common to riparian zones here often are not motile in the host and spontaneously improve.[53]
Botrytis cinerea
![Botrytis cinerea of strawberry](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/99/Botrytis_on_strawberries.png/220px-Botrytis_on_strawberries.png)
![Botrytis cinerea on grape, Sonoma County](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/fb/Sonoma_clusters_showing_signs_of_Botrytis_%28noble_rot%29.jpg/220px-Sonoma_clusters_showing_signs_of_Botrytis_%28noble_rot%29.jpg)
Various strains of gray mold (Botrytis cinerea) are a constant presence in the state's horticulture, including in strawberry[120] and grape.[54] (See § Strawberries and § Grapes.)
Fungicides are used multiple times per seasons and as a result resistance is common.[120] Across one season, Cosseboom et al., 2019 finds the proportion of resistant isolates went from [120]
Alleles responsible include the erg27 alleles F196C, F412I, and F412S; bos1 alleles I356N, I365N, and I365S; the β-tubulin allele E198A (which Hu et al. 2016 finds has no fitness penalty); the cytb allele G143A (found by Veloukas et al., 2014 to have no fitness penalty); the mrr1 allele R351C and the mrr1 deletion event ΔL497 (also known as MDR1h and found only in Botrytis group S); and sdhB alleles H272R, H272Y, N230I, and P225F (the only one conferring resistance to isofetamid, also confers resistance to penthiopyrad, fluopyram, and boscalid, and associated by Hu et al., 2016 with resistance to fluxapyroxad).[120] The analysis of Cosseboom et al., 2019 explains 93.8% of resistance by already-known alleles discovered by Banno et al., 2008, Ma et al., 2007, Grabke et al., 2013, Kretschmer et al., 2009, Dowling et al., 2017, Fernández-Ortuño et al., 2012, Amiri et al., 2014, and Yin et al., 2011, so very little is due to experimental error, unknown physiological effects, or undiscovered alleles.[120] (See § Isofetamid, § Fluopyram, and § Boscalid.)
Organic strawberry ranches experience very active genetic transfer with conventional strawberry and as a result they have high proportions of resistance.[120] Cosseboom et al., 2019 finds that conventional fields undergo within-season resistance evolution, while organic does not, demonstrating that they are indeed not using the fungicides they claim to not use, and that genetic transfer is not so rapid as to change the situation in a field that quickly.[120]
Ma & Michailides 2005 developed a microsatellite primed PCR (MP-PCR) for genetic diversity in this fungus, especially for populations in this state.[270] Strawberry Botrytis leaf spot was first discovered in 2018 in Santa Maria and reported by Mansouripour & Holmes 2020.[121] Bc was not previously known to produce a leaf spot phenotype in strawberry.[121]
In table grape there is a limit of 0.5% – table grapes can only be shipped if an allotment contains 0.5% or less of Bc-infected berries.[54] For one treatment option for grape, see § Ozone.[54]
Other diseases of grape
Red Blotch Disease (caused by grapevine red blotch virus, GLRaV-3) costs the state $90 million annually.[55] Losses in Napa County cost over $69,500 per hectare ($28,100/acre) across the likely 25-year lifetime of a vineyard, far higher than the $2,200 per hectare ($890/acre) estimated for eastern Washington.[55]
Leafroll Disease (grapevine leafroll-associated virus 3) is also economically significant.[55]
The seriousness of Powdery Mildew (Uncinula necator) has been recognized since at least 1859 in the northern grape district.[50] Newton B. Pierce was working in the area a few decades before his discovery of Pierce's Disease, and over the 1860s he watched U. necator spread to the south.[50] Frederic Bioletti called it the only serious fungal disease the industry suffered from, and so it has remained ever since.[50][271] Gubler et al., 1996 finds that reduced rates prescribed by IPM are responsible for some of U. necator's triadimefon-, myclobutanil-, and fenarimol resistances.[94][272]
Other diseases
Phytophthora cactorum causes Strawberry crown rot, a common disease here.[122]
The Foliar Nematode (Aphelenchoides fragariae) and Northern Root Knot Nematode (Meloidogyne hapla) are the two most common Strawberry nematodes here,[273] although RKN is rarely seen by CalPoly Strawberry Center's diagnostic lab.[274] Even rarer are the Root Lesion (Pratylenchus penetrans), Stem (Ditylenchus dipsaci), Dagger (Xiphinema americanum), Needle (Longidorus elongatus), Foliar (Aphelenchoides ritzemabosi and A. besseyi), and other Root Knot (Meloidogyne incognita and M. javanica) nematodes.[273]
Anthracnose occurs on peach, almond, and strawberry here.[87] Colletotrichum acutatum is a common cause.[87] Natamycin is often used in strawberry.[87] (See § Natamycin and § Strawberries.) Adaskaveg & Hartin 1997 identify the C. acutatum strains most frequently responsible in peach and almond.[87] (See § Almonds and § Peaches.)
Monilinia fructicola and M. laxa are significant diseases of stonefruits here and benzimidazole is often used.[101] The Ma & Michaelides group has done extensive work on fungicide resistance in these microorganisms.[101] (See § Stonefruit and § Benzimidazole.)
Botryosphaeria dothidea is a significant fungal diseases here which often receives strobilurin, iprodione, azoxystrobin, and tebuconazole treatments.[101] The Ma & Michaelides group has done extensive work on fungicide resistance, including in this pathogen.[101] They have characterized resistance alleles of tebuconazole-resistant- isolates.[101]
Figs commonly suffer from Fig Smut here.[275] Smut is caused by various Aspergillus spp. and relatives, including: Aspergillus niger, A. japonicus, A. carbonarius, A. flavus and A. parasiticus, Eurotium spp., A. tamarii, A. terreus, A. wentii, A. alliaceus, A. melleus, A. ochraceus, Emericella spp., A. carneus, A. fumigatus, A. sclerotiorum, and A. sydowii.[275]
Olives here suffer from a wide range of fungal diseases of the Botryosphaeriaceae family, as elsewhere in the world.[74] Úrbez-Torres et al., 2013 finds Neofusicoccum mediterraneum and Diplodia mutila are the most virulent of them on Manzanillo and Sevillano.[74] Moral et al., 2010 finds N. mediterraneum commonly causes a branch blight on several cultivars and D. seriata causes a branch canker.[74] More specific controls than currently available are needed for N. mediterraneum in highly susceptible cultivars, and early harvest may be the only successful treatment for D. seriata.[74] See § Olives.
In early 2012 a previously unknown plant disease (a Fusarium) and vector (a Euwallacea, preliminarily termed the polyphagous shot hole borer, PSHB) were detected in Los Angeles and Orange Counties.[13] This is especially a disease affecting avocado growers, but also other crops in this state and in its other invasive range, in Israel.[13] In fact although PSHB was noticed on a black locust here in 2003, the associated Fusarium was only detected in 2012 on home avocado trees in LA County.[13] (See § Avocados above.) As all Euwallacea in both their native and invasive ranges, this insect prefers to infest hosts in this area in locations which are stressful due to their unnaturalness, such as urban ornamental plantings and orchards.[13]
Avian malaria is present in the state.[162][161] Plasmodium relictum and its vectors C. quinquefasciatus, C. stigmatosoma, and C. tarsalis are most commonly responsible.[161] The Herman group made the first reports of infection and vector competence in various hosts, in Herman 1951, Herman et al., 1954, and Reeves et al., 1954-II.[161] Zoologix is based in the state and is a major provider of testing services here and for the entire country, including for avian malaria.[162] See § Fowl for hosts and § Culex for vectors.
Stripe rust is believed to have been a continuous presence in the state since at least the 1770s because newspapers reported it at the time on wheat and wild grasses, and because stripe is more common today than leaf or stem.[14]: 3 Barley, wheat, and various grasses are hosts here.[14]: 9 (See § Barley and § Wheat.)
Stromatinia cepivora (garlic white rot) was identified in the San Francisco area in the 1930s and Gilroy in the 1940s.[276] It continues to be a problem for garlic growers in the state.[277]
Leaf Spot of Caneberry (Mycosphaerella rubi, anamorph Septoria rubi) is common here.[20] It is common on caneberry excluding raspberry, so erect and trailing blackberry, dewberry, olallieberry, and boysenberry.[20] (See also § Caneberry.) Treatment is simple, almost entirely relying on increased air circulation.[20] No fungicides are registered but any fungicides for § Anthracnose and § Gray Mold will work.[20] Copper and lime sulfur work to some degree.[20]
This should be distinguished from Leaf Spot of Raspberry (Sphaerulina rubi, anamorph Cylindrosporium rubi).[20] Although Leaf Spot of Raspberry is found here it is not common in California.[20] (See also § Raspberry.)
Phytophthora ramorum was first discovered in the 1990s on the Central Coast[278] and was quickly found in Oregon as well.[279] P. ramorum is of economic concern due to its infestation of Rubus and Vaccinium spp.[279] All isolates here and throughout North America have been of the A2 mating type and genetic analysis suggests that although it was discovered here, the pathogen originated elsewhere.[279] Although P. r. has also been found in England and Poland,[278] Europe was not the source of the introduction here and analysis shows that it too was introduced from an unknown third region.[279]
Verticillium Wilts (biovars of Verticillium dahliae) are found here as in any other ecozone. This includes Verticillium Wilt of Strawberry.[280] Unlike every other known Vert Wilt of any other crop, this syndrome sometimes lacks any or any noticeable vascular discoloration of the crown.[281] In strawberry, methyl bromide has historically been vital to prevention, and with phase out, this disease is of increasing concern.[280][282] (See § Methyl bromide.) In all cases some fumigation is necessary, and if fumigation is not possible then solarization and/or rotation are the only remaining options.[280] (See § Soil solarization.)[280] Although drip fumigation (fumigation inline in the drip tape) is possible it does not produce the same results, especially failing to reach the shoulders of the beds.[280] Nurseries universally use MB or MB + chloropicrin, while growers may use 1,3-D + chloropicrin, chloropicrin alone, metam sodium, or metam potassium.[280] Note that MB+chloropicrin also provides an uncharacterized growth promoter effect in this crop.[282]: 180 (See § Chloropicrin, § 1,3-dichloropropene, § Metam sodium, § Metam potassium.)
Fusarium Wilt of Strawberry (Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. fragariae) had only been seen once before, in Queensland, in one sample of Winks & Williams in 1966,[283] until appearing again here in 2006 and identified by Koike et al. 2009.[284] As of 2018[update] it has spread throughout the state.[124] Henry et al., 2017 apply a Japanese PCR-based test of nuclear ribosomal intergenic spacer and elongation factor 1-α.[285] They find such high similarity between the intended – Japanese – target populations and California populations that there are almost no false negatives.[285] There are no false positives on other Fo types (i.e. those not pathogenic on strawberry).[285] Although this suggests both populations have a common origin, that remains to be proven. The matching IGS and EF-1α sequences divide into three somatic compatibility groups.[285] The vast majority fell into what they term SCG1, with a few of SCG2 and SCG3.[285] SCG2 is always a false negative with this test which may indicate the entire group lacks the sequence in question.[285] Although this proves to be a good test, a universally valid test may require finding a sequence specifically pertinent to virulence on the host and not other, incidental sequences.[285] For genetic resistance see § Diseases of strawberry.
Strawberry Crinkle Virus (SCV, Strawberry crinkle cytorhabdovirus) is common here.[286][287] Much of the fundamental research into SCV has been performed by a lab at UC Berkeley, including research on mechanical transmission.[286][287]
Frequent use has produced streptomycin resistance in Fire Blight (Erwinia amylovora) here.[288] This disease is a problem of pomes, including pear.[288] See also § Streptomycin and § Pear.
For one disease caused by Podosphaera aphanis see § Powdery Mildew of Strawberry.[111]
Alternaria spp.
Various Alternaria spp. are significant fungal diseases here and often receive strobilurin, iprodione, azoxystrobin, and tebuconazole treatments.[101] The Ma & Michaelides group has done extensive work on fungicide resistance, including in these pathogens.[101] They have characterized resistance alleles (and in some cases produced molecular diagnostics methologies) for strobilurin-resistant-, iprodione-resistant-, and azoxystrobin-resistant- isolates.[101]
A. alternata has one of the widest host ranges of any fungal crop pathogen and so fungicides are commonly used.[289] Almost all fruiting production of vulnerable crops must be fungicide-treated.[289] Avenot, along with the Michailides group has found extensive boscalid resistance in a swathe from the center down into the central southern part of the state, especially Kern, Tulare, Fresno, and Madera.[289] Although it is also commonly applied in Kings, no resistance is known there.[289] (See § Boscalid.)
Black Heart is a common pomegranate disease worldwide. Out of the group of causative species, here Luo et al., 2017 find it is caused by A. alternata and A. arborescens.[33]: 192 [290] Michailides et al., 2008 finds the 'Wonderful' cultivar can suffer at a rate of 10% or more here.[33]: 192 [291]: S105 (See also § Pomegranates.)
Alternaria Rot of Fig is common here. It is caused by various species of this genus and relatives including: Ulocladium atrum, A. alternata, rarely other Alternaria spp., Dendryphiella vinosa, and Curvularia spp. Epicoccum purpurascens causes Alternaria of breba only.[275] (The first, "breba" crop is not eaten but must be removed because it harbors inoculum of all of these microbes for the second, real crop.)[275] See also {{Section link}}: required section parameter(s) missing.
Treatments
Lindane was heavily used as a seed treatment here, applying almost 5,000 pounds (2,300 kg) in 2000 but voluntarily reducing that to only 775 pounds (352 kg) by 2004, before the federal EPA banned it for agricultural use 2006.[292]
Fungicides are heavily used especially in fruit production. Adaskaveg et al., 2005 finds no compromise in effectiveness when substituting lower-toxicity fungicides for older, higher-toxicity ingredients.[293] They find a boscalid + pyraclostrobin mixture, fenhexamid, fludioxonil, and pyrimethanil to be good substitutes for the more toxic dicloran, iprodione, and tebuconazole.[293] (See § Boscalid, § Pyraclostrobin, § Fenhexamid, § Fludioxonil, § Iprodione.) Older fungicides also have generally experienced much slower resistance evolution than newer ingredients.[94]
Methyl bromide was formerly an indispensable part of strawberry cultivation here, such that that Ansel Adams and Nancy Newhall selected "strawberry fumigation" as one of the great achievements of the University of California system to photograph for their centennial book.[144][147] However, increasing legal restrictions have made alternatives financially more attractive, otherwise more attractive, or even just necessary.[75][144] (Note also the unexplained growth promotion effect of MB+chloropicrin in strawberry.)[282]: 180
Soil solarization is one such other option.[75] Stapleton et al., 2005 kill almost 100% of yellow sweetclover (Melilotus officinalis L. Lam.), chickweed (Stellaria spp.), annual bluegrass (Poa annua Linnaeus), shepherd's purse (Capsella bursa-pastoris Linnaeus Medikus), crabgrass (various Digitaria spp.), and spotted spurge (Euphorbia maculata Linnaeus Small) with this method in strawberry and parsley.[75] Solarization completely fails against yellow nutsedge infesting the same crops however.[75] (See also § Strawberries and § Parsley.)
The isothiocyanates (including sinigrin) in the harvest residues of broccoli make them useful in the biofumigation of nematodes, although cultivars of Brassicaceae with higher concentrations would be desirable.[19] Combining with solarization (biosolarization) does not improve the performance of this treatment however.[19] (See also § Nematodes.)
With methyl bromide being phased out, UC-IPM recommends fumigating strawberry with chloropicrin or a combination of chloropicrin and 1,3-dichloropropene followed by metam sodium or metam potassium 5–7 days later, for nematodes (see § Strawberry nematodes).[273] (This treatment will also control weeds, other soilborne pathogens, and soil-dwelling insect pests.)[273]
UC IPM provides recommendations for integrated pest management, including specifically for strawberry.[294]
For Strawberry Crown Rot, genetic resistance would be most helpful.[122] Shaw et al., 2008 provides some markers to screen germplasm for such resistance.[122] (See also § Strawberry crown rot.)
Natamycin is used as a prophylactic dip treatment to prevent Colletotrichum acutatum anthracnose.[87] (See also § Colletotrichum acutatum.)
Boscalid is an SDHI (succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor fungicide, FRAC group 7) commonly used for fruit molds.[295] It is considered to be at high risk for resistance here due to its frequent use[295] often multiple applications per season.
Pyraclostrobin, thiophanate-methyl, fenhexamid, cyprodinil, boscalid, pethiopyrad, iprodione, fluopyram, fludioxonil, and isofetamid (in descending order) suffer extensive resistance due to repeated sprays many times per season in strawberry here.[120] The team performing this research, Cosseboom et al., 2019, also surprisingly found that this is such a problem that within-season evolution is significant, especially in the north and especially in fenhexamid, pyraclostrobin, and thiophanate-methyl.[120] In fact, if there was any resistance at all it was most commonly triple resistance to these three.[120] They suggest thiophanate-methyl should not be used at all.[120] Adaskaveg & Gubler 2006 and Billard et al., 2012 find fenhexamid resistance carries a fitness cost however, so rotating it out for a time may restore its efficacy.[120] Johnson et al., 1994 and Raposo et al., 1996 find suggestive evidence for the same in iprodione.[120]
Captan is by far the most commonly used fungicide in strawberry,[120] see also § Strawberry.
The Diaphorina citri-associated C virus (DcACV) is a virus of the Asian citrus psyllid.[296] It was first identified by Nouri et al., 2016 in isolates from this state.[296] It is hoped that this can be weaponized as a bioinsecticide of ACP, a virus to be intentionally spread outside of the state to help control this insect.[296] (See also § Citrus and § Asian citrus psyllid above.)
DDT was formerly extensively used in citrus here.[36] Honeybees developed DDT resistance in the 1950s, possibly for that reason.[36] (See also § Honeybees.)
Benzimidazole is commonly used against Monilinia fructicola and M. laxa.[101] The Ma & Michaelides group has done extensive work on benzimidazole-resistant- biotypes of both species.[101] (See § Monilinia fructicola and § Monilinia laxa.)
Toxomerus marginatus and Platycheirus stegnus are the two most common parasitoids of N. ribisnigri aphids on the Central Coast.[67] These serve as natural biocontrols for organic lettuce growers here.[67] See also § Lettuce and § Nasonovia ribisnigri.
Methyl anthranilate is registered as a bird repellent for edible fruits such as cherry, apple, blueberry, and grape.[32] (See also § Birds in fruits.)
The moth Digitivalva delaireae predates on the invasive weed Cape-ivy.[297] (See § Cape-ivy.) In food preference tests, Mehelis et al. 2015 find that the moth is so selective about preferring Cape-ivy that it would serve well as a safe biocontrol here and in Oregon.[297] Cercospora delaireae is a fungus which has been found on the same weed in its native range.[298] It can be used as a biocontrol as well.[298]
Ozone is usable in organic.[54] Ozone is often used here in organic grape – and sometimes by packers handling conventional – for post-harvest Gray Mold. See § Grapes and § Gray mold.[54]
Archbold et al., 1997 test a large number of wound volatiles and find them effective against Gray Mold isolates from grape here.[299] Those volatiles are (E)-2-hexenal, 1-hexanol, (E)-2-hexen-1-ol, (E)-2-hexenyl, nonanal, 2-nonanone, (E)-3-nonen-2-one, methyl salicylate, methyl benzoate, and benzaldehyde.[299] See also § Gray Mold and § Grape.
Streptomycin has been commonly used for some bacterial diseases here since the 1950s.[288] Overreliance in treatment of Fire Blight led to such severe streptomycin resistance by 1970 that oxytetracycline was used instead, although it is less effective.[288] Moller et al. 1981 found resistance had declined to ~5% at the original location and streptomycin usage resumed, but in 2006 pear again suffered from resistant epidemics in Sacramento County and most usage again ceased.[288] Förster et al., 2015 finds efficacy has again returned everywhere but Sutter and San Joaquin.[288] All other strains were in the range of moderate to low resistance.[288] The SY/SJ strains carry a mutation in codon 43 of the gene rpsL, a chromosomal gene.[288] rpsL codes for the protein S12 which is part of the 30S ribosomal subunit.[288] This mutation reduces binding affinity for the anti-bacterial to the ribosome, permitting unimpaired protein synthesis.[288] This mutation is much more effective than any on plasmids or in transposons.[288] See § Pear, § Fire Blight, and § Apple.
Rodenticides are used both to protect fields and storage facilities. (See also {{Section link}}: required section parameter(s) missing.) Serieys et al. 2014 finds that this has had a detrimental environmental side effect: Bobcats (Lynx rufus) suffered a severe population decline in rodenticide application areas at times when they also suffered an epizootic of notoedric mange (Notoedres cati).[300]
Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) has been used to great success against both the Mexfly[251]: 16 and the Medfly.[251]: 18 See also {{Section link}}: required section parameter(s) missing and {{Section link}}: required section parameter(s) missing.
Insurance
As with the entire country there is USDA subsidized crop insurance for the state.[301] The Risk Management Agency provides various insurance schemes and deadlines by County and by crop.[301]
Research, testing, and propagation material
Foundation Plant Services[302] (FPS) is a part of UCD's College of Agriculture which serves the horticultural industries. FPS performs several services including testing for diseases (especially viral diseases), identifying varieties of unknown plant samples, and supplying cuttings (vegetative propagation material) from in situ individuals they maintain.[302] They use a library of published Simple Sequence Repeats (SSRs) known to be relevant to the state's strawberry industry to identify those varieties specifically.[122] California Seed & Plant Lab is an even more active, private molecular lab for the strawberry industry.[122] CS&PL tests for clients here and around the world.[122]
California's experiences with the Vine mealybug, Glassy-winged sharp-shooter, and Pierce's disease have informed the process of creating geographic models for the spread of pests and diseases and their management in viticulture around the world.[303]: 43 See {{Section link}}: required section parameter(s) missing and {{Section link}}: required section parameter(s) missing.
Labor
For many decades the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) left farmworkers alone.[304] INS and then CBP chose not to do any significant enforcement in agriculture, hospitality, or construction.[304]
Farmers here were solid supporters of candidate and then President Trump, but were quickly surprised by the rhetoric of the administration due to the labor situation in the industry.[305]
Some farmworkers here are not employed here all year but instead travel to other agricultural employment while California is in the off season.[306]
