3 1 Background Economic importance fruit fly occuring in Thailand imposes a significant cost on horticulture production especially a wide range of soft fruits every year. The ecomonic loss of fruit flies damage to mango production is estimated using domestic price showed hundred millions dollar. These fruit flies are classified as a primary quarantine pest for many of Thailand s trading partners. Exports of Thai fresh fruit would need to undergo postharvest disinfestations treatment prior to shipment to fruit fly free markets such as Japan and the United State of America, the promising future market of Thailand fresh fruit. The cost of disinfestations is around USD $ 250 to USD$ 375 per ton varying due to treatment methods and varieties of fruit but is seen as a significant cost. The most common routine control is insecticide spray, especially to commercial fruit orchards. While the practice of bagging can lessen damage to individual fruit but typically, the removal of infested and/or fallen fruit was ignored. 2 Fruit flies in Thailand The Oriental fruit fly OFF (Bactrocera dorsalis, Hendel) and the guava fruit fly GFF (B. correcta, Bezzi), has been considered the important species of agricultural pests widespread in Southeast Asia, East Asia and the Pacific (Mau and Matin, 1992; Sutantawong, 2004; White and Elson Harris, 1992;). OFF is originally described from Taiwan and its degree of wide spreadness is second only to the Mediterranean fruit fly (Mau and Matin, 1992). Because of the potential losses as an economic impact from fruit fly infestation, considerable pilot fruit fly control programme using SIT based was launched in The first pilot project using SIT IPM was implemented in Paktor district, Ratchaburi province within the area of 7.2 km2, where B. dorsalis was a dominant fruit fly species. A small pilot facility could produce up to 40 million sterile flies per week in the Pathumthani province. Further steps were done according to standard operation procedures described in this paper. Recently, the sterile insect technique (SIT) has been implemented in a suppression strategy (Enkerlin, 2005) with monitoring network system and other control methods such as annihilation of males, bait sprays, orchard sanitation and wild host cutting.this was done through close collaboration between the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) of the United Nations, Joint FAO/IAEA Division of Nuclear Techniques in Food and Agriculture and Department of Agricultural Extension (DOAE) of Thailand. The integrated SIT approach was effective in controlling fruit flies by reducing damage of fresh fruits. This has opened the possibility for exports of mango produced in these selected pilot areas to some of the most stringent and lucrative markets such as Japan. An economic feasibility study conducted 3 P age

4 in 2002 clearly showed that fruit fly control in Thailand using area wide SIT could be expanded to other production areas with significant economic returns. The scenario of SIT for fruit fly control has been facing difficulties from various factors. That effected the degree of population suppression. These factors include high variability in pupae production and deficient sanitary practices (i.e. host removal after harvest) in the orchards in the release area. Inadequate funding has been a major constraint. Despite the problems, including some fruit fly outbreaks in the release area, the programme is regarded as successful. Moreover, the program is highlighted in Phichit province since field operational cost is covered mainly by growers, rather than the national government. The map of release sites in core area Left) Ratchaburi province. Right) Phichit province Description of the control options analyzed * Option Conventional control (low input) Conventional control (high input) SIT suppression non area wide SIT suppression area wide Description Minimum orchard management is carried out by farmers. Irregular pest control is done. Moderate orchard management is carried out including pruning, orchard sanitation and a conventional pest control programme at orchard level. OFF control includes from 7 to 10 calendar insecticide cover sprays per season. Moderate orchard management is carried out including pruning, orchard sanitation, minimum level of population monitoring, 1 to 2 insecticide sprays against OFF and permanent ground releases of sterile flies at orchard level. Intensive orchard management is carried out including pruning, orchard sanitation, optimum level of population monitoring, permanent aerial releases of sterile flies in orchards and marginal areas. A government centralized management structure is in place where farmers actively participate in monitoring and control activities in the orchards and the government takes responsibility for activities in the marginal areas.

Provincial officers had gotten training course on area wide intergrated fruit flies control. Training program was carry out related to on time of field implementation for fruit flies control such as male annihilation technique using mathyl eugenol mass trapping, bait application to suppress female, orchard sanitation and fruit flies wild host cutting and replace by non host. But level of content were difference related to target group. The Sterile fruit flies were release 20 5 P age

6 millions per week in Phichit province which was consider base on potential of grower, grower organization and community. More than 160 volunteer growers, 2,000 gorwers, 50 school teachers and 3,000 students was educated on fruit fly importance and IPM classical control. After this projet under Farmer s Assistance Fund, growers racognized that fruit fly wis importance and some provinces can carry out fruit flies control activities as routine work by growers. Meanwhile, some province have got funding from local province office. Moreover, currently fruit fly control program some provinces e.g. Samut Sakhon, Nakhon Nayok and Trad province have being carry out by Provincial Administrative Organization and /or Provincial Administrative Office using appropriated IPM for their local conditions for fruit flies control.

Two Tephritid species of fruit flies of economic importance occur in Thailand, the Oriental fruit fly OFF (Bactrocera dorsalis, Hendel) and the guava fruit fly GFF(B. correcta, Bezzi), the key pests of a number of tropical fruits e.g. mango (Mangifera indica Linn.), guava (Psidium guajava Linn.), Rose apple (Syzygium jambos Linn. Alston), Marian plum (Bouae burmanica Griff.) Sugar apple (Annona squamosa Linn.) and Spodilla (Manilkara achras Fosberg). To improve quality of fresh fruit through environmental friendly techniques and strategies therefore area wide Control of fruit fly B. dorsalis (Hendel) and B. correcta (Bezzi) using Integrated Techniques would be launch. Two provinces of proposed areas; plantation and 1) Samut Sakhon which has diversify of tropical fruits together scatter small cucurbit 2) Nakhon Nayok which is well known of the best delectable taste and quality of Marian plum (Bouae burmanica Griff.) 6 P age
