You may want to consider adjusting your nitrogen management practices this year. For this year\/ limit N applications in April to 50 lbs of total N due to hurricane Helene putting the trees in alternate bearing. With damaged branches, you don\u2019t usually have a crop the following season and trees store nutrients well. We want to stay low on N in 2025 unless you end up with a crop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Disease Management:<\/strong> Begin fungicide sprays with a phosphite or an 11+3 MOA fungicide at 10-14 day intervals based on disease potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Insect Management:<\/strong> Be scouting for ambrosia beetle damage. Also, if you have had a history of phylloxera in the past consider managing with a recommended treatment, such as imidacloprid after bud-break. For more information on phyloxerra, see below in the recent Southeast Georgia Pecan Press the newsletter from Dr. Barman on Phylloxera Management. <a href=\"https:\/\/uga.us4.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=c5314b7406ec484e5681477af&amp;id=feaeaad6a5&amp;e=11ee0a90bc\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"core\/file\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!state.hasPdfPreview\" hidden class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/applingcrop\/files\/2025\/04\/Southeast-Georgia-Pecan-Press-March-2025.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:600px\" aria-label=\"Embed of Southeast Georgia Pecan Press - March 2025.\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-4385d1e3-b757-4932-b6d4-17fbb9b7b604\" href=\"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/applingcrop\/files\/2025\/04\/Southeast-Georgia-Pecan-Press-March-2025.pdf\">Southeast Georgia Pecan Press &#8211; March 2025<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/applingcrop\/files\/2025\/04\/Southeast-Georgia-Pecan-Press-March-2025.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button wp-element-button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-4385d1e3-b757-4932-b6d4-17fbb9b7b604\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Riding around the county I am beginning to see some trees breaking out buds.
