California seals victory over Mediterranean fruit fly
California officials toasted victory over the Mediterranean fruit fly ending a two year 96 million eradication effort. The ceremony at Medfly project HQ in Los Gatos marked the end of quarantines as federal officials noted past laxness and the state prepared contingency plans for any future outbreaks. The campaign sprayed malathion on 1495 square miles and released 4.5 billion sterile medflies while employing 4000 workers. Agriculture remains California’s top industry with 14 billion in annual gross revenue and medflies threaten 19 crops worth 5.4 billion.
