The project will assess the effects of pecan hedge-pruning on critical horticultural parameters (nut yield, quality, water-use efficiency, and nutrition), disease (incidence and severity of scab, colonization of branches by wood rot fungi), insect pest and natural enemy populations and pest-related injuries. The project will also evaluate impacts of hedge-pruning on soil-borne entomopathogens. A comprehensive economic analysis and implementation of Extension and Outreach programs will also be conducted based on the research results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A vital part of this study is obtaining grower perceptions on pecan hedge-pruning, hence we are conducting this <a href=\"https:\/\/ugeorgia.ca1.qualtrics.com\/jfe\/form\/SV_cwn4BDP2lTMibJ3\"><strong>survey<\/strong><\/a>.
