That's a great suggestion. SIR has worked. In my area, anyway, I no longer have to spray for codling moth. The problem with SIR is that as the acreage goes down, those people still in apples have to pay more. So definitely, if the federal government could come in and help out, that would be great.
I was also talking to someone working for SIR. Basically what they do is they take this moth and they sterilize it using radiation, I think, or some kind of machine, but that machine is getting old and needs to be replaced. They're scrambling, wondering where they're going to get the money for this new machine. So even aid for something like that, just to keep the cost of the SIR down, would definitely be welcome.
