The focus of 2019’s capacity building workshop & expert meeting was: “Invasive species on nut trees and their management”. The opening of the workshop was delivered by Mr Yalcin Akin, Regional Director, Bursa Regional Directorate of Forestry; Ms Shiroma Sathyapala (REU) and Mr Ferenc Lakatos (REUFIS network secretary).

The threats and future challenges were demonstrated by the keynote lectures given by Mr Simone Propero, WSL Switzerland. Invited speakers from Turkey gave a valuable insight into the current forest health situation of nut trees in Turkey. Prof. Selma Ülgentürk (Ankara University), Mr Kahraman Ipekdal (Ahi Evran University) and Ms Secil Akilli Simsek (Cankiri Karatekin Univeristy) focused on the example of chestnut tree pests and pathogens (chestnut blight, gall wasp, Phytophthora, etc.) but also on other invasive pests (e.g. stinkbugs, walnut twig beetle) and diseases (ink disease).

2020 – Protecting oak trees for future generations in Europe and Central Asia

24.11.2021.

Forests face new threats from both native pest species with changing biology and behaviour, and also non-native, sometimes even invasive, pest species; the latter of which are often very difficult to manage.Recognizing this issue, the countries of Europe and Central Asia established the Forest Invasive Species Network for Europe and Central Asia (REUFIS) where scientists, forest managers and policy-makers can share information and coordinate activities related to forest invasive species.

Oaks are one of the dominating tree species in many forest types across the region, and  play an important  economic, societal and ecological role.  Protection of the oak species from pests and diseases is pivotal for future of regional forests and forest ecosystems.

 

The webinar will

  • Raise awareness and preparedness for future pest and disease outbreaks in oak forests;
  • Share experiences on good practises on Integrated Pest Management for pests and diseases of oak tree species;
  • Contribute to the goals of the International Year of Plant Health 2020.

Forests face new continuous threats from both native pest species with changing biology and behaviour, as well as from non-native, invasive species; the latter of which are often very difficult to manage.

Recognizing this issue, the Forest Invasive Species Network for Europe and Central Asia (REUFIS) has created a platform where scientists, forest managers and policymakers can share information and coordinate activities related to forest invasive species.

Early warning/early action (EWEA) systems are valuable tools to mitigate potentially detrimental events such as pest and disease outbreaks through preventative activities. Contingency plans both generic and pest-specific also have the potential to enable more rapid and efficient response to pest incursions and outbreaks. Well formulated EWEA systems and contingency plans provide better preparedness and guidance to industries, scientists, regulators, communities and public on what actions to take and how to implement them in an event of an incursion or outbreak as well as how to recover from after such event. Both EWEA systems and contingency plans can support forest health and resilience towards pest outbreaks.
