IMPACT: Virginia Winter Fruit School Impact | Tree fruits are important to the agricultural
economy in Virginia. The commonwealth
ranks sixth in the nation in apple production,
with a crop valued at more than $68 million,
and 20th in peach production, with a crop
valued at $4.5 million. Although smaller in
acreage, cherries, pears, and plums also play
an important role in some areas of Virginia.
These fruit crops are susceptible to an everchanging
array of insects, plant diseases,
and weeds, and pest management programs
are complex and knowledge-intensive. |

Aging With Dignity | Life expectancy has increased dramatically in the past 100 years: 1 in every 8 Americans is age 65 or older. For most, this means an increase in the number of healthy years.
