Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report summarizes pest impact data for onions grown in the Treasure Valley, gathered through Oregon State University's Crop Pest Losses Impact Assessment program. The program facilitates the collection of real-world data on the impacts of invertebrates, pathogens, weeds and other pests to key crops in the Pacific Northwest -- data which are vital yet lacking in most agricultural industries. We demonstrate the yield and economic impacts of specific pests and management practices for the 2018 crop season. The report is for onion researchers, Extension workers, crop consultants and others who have an interest in crop losses, and in development and deployment of integrated pest management.
