The Gyeonggi-do Agricultural Research and Extension Services has produced and published a "Manual for Pest and Disease Management in Eco-friendly Apple Cultivation."
The manual has been created as a handbook-style e-book for easy reference anytime and anywhere, and is organized into sections on diseases and pests.
In particular, it contains response strategies and management guidelines for pest and disease issues in eco-friendly apple orchards, including stink bugs, which are a significant problem in eco-friendly cultivation.
