Normative Law number 10, March 18th 2005, “Greening Task Force”:

  • Sep. of 2006: new law, farmers need to do the inspection

2008: new law again, removal of affected blocks

So, what are growers normally doing now ?

A) With low HLB intensity: following the law (inspection + eradication) + vector control B) With high HLB intensity: many are not following the law + vector control attempting nutritional programs, etc

Losses caused by HLB in São Paulo

Officially: 511,627 (Sep 5th, 2008) Volunteered: ~ 6 million trees removed (?) If so, total: ~ 6.5 million trees lost Infected but symptomless yet ?

What is the impact?

Actual citrus belt with ~ 200 million trees So, ~ 3.25 % lost in 5 years (+ the asymptomatic trees) Regular grove renew from 6 to 10% per year New citrus area in the Southwestern SP and Northern Paraná

So, regular losses so far, but tremendous risk !!!

HLB in Paraná

54 counties with HLB (Croce-Filho et al, SEAB/DEFIS/DDSV, 2010), but things are different in Paraná... very low intensity (so far !) 90 % of growers are integrated in some organization (cooperatives, companies, grower association, etc) more political power in agriculture coordinated inspection and management (eradication) properties normally don’t have citrus neighbors psillids are not easily seen

Some managers and directors:

Strong holds also with official institutions: Universities Cooperatives are experienced organization on other commodities…

Research work on HLB

Need alternatives to grow citrus

New managements and treatments

  • Early productive groves
  • New scions, roostocks, …
  • High density, nutrition, precision agriculture, and

more…

Evaluating germplasm collection

  • Is all really susceptible ?

Building artificial resistence

  • Genetic engineering and biotechnology

  • Other rootstocks also: Trifoliata, Flying Dragon, …

Campos et al, 2009

Also less vigour, so potential for high density plantings

  • Blocking “communication” between bacterial cells
  • Being tested against HLB (no results yet)

Strategies and actual status

(Vieira’s group)

1) Valencia against citrus canker (Vieira and group, 1999-2001) 2) Drought resistant Swingle and Carrizo 3) More strategies against HLB

  • Orange trees more responsive to HLB (no results yet, but eventually more

susceptible…)

  • More efficient nutrient uptake
  • Osmotic protection
