Abstract

Understanding the knowledge and behavior of nonindustrial private forest landowners towards Port-Orford cedar (POC) root disease (Phytophthora lateralis), sudden oak death (Phytophthora ramorum), and disease-resistant seedlings can help target effective education and outreach programs. We surveyed two counties in Southern Oregon to gain knowledge about these pathogens, disease-resistant seedlings, landowner behavior, and landowner preferences regarding planting disease-resistant seedlings. Amenity-based management objectives were more associated with planting disease-resistant POC. Respondents were more likely to plant disease-resistant conifers than hardwoods. Disease-resistant planting preferences were associated with years owned and acres of ownership. Designing targeted education and outreach programs will be necessary to achieve broad scale adoption of disease management and restoration practices. Study implications: We present results from a survey of nonindustrial private forest (NIPF) landowners in two counties in Southern Oregon to determine general landowner characteristics and knowledge of two nonnative diseases, Port-Orford cedar root disease, caused by Phytophthora lateralis, and sudden oak death, caused by Phytophthora ramorum. NIPF landowners play meaningful roles in invasive disease management: recognizing and reporting symptoms of nonnative plant diseases with the objective of early detection and control, implementing management actions to help mitigate disease spread, and planting disease-resistant seedlings during restoration efforts. Understanding landowner knowledge about diseases is important for engaging them in insect and disease mitigation.
了解俄勒冈州南部土地所有者在入侵疾病预防和恢复种植方面的教育需求
了解非工业私人森林土地所有者对奥尔福德港雪松(POC)根病(侧孢疫霉)、橡树猝死(疫霉)和抗病树苗的认识和行为,有助于制定有效的教育和推广计划。我们对俄勒冈州南部的两个县进行了调查,以了解这些病原体、抗病树苗、土地所有者的行为以及土地所有者对种植抗病树苗的偏好。以美化环境为基础的管理目标与种植抗病 POC 更为相关。与硬木相比,受访者更倾向于种植抗病针叶树。抗病树种的种植偏好与拥有树种的年限和亩数有关。有必要设计有针对性的教育和推广计划,以广泛采用病害管理和恢复方法。研究意义:我们介绍了对俄勒冈州南部两个县的非工业私有林(NIPF)土地所有者进行调查的结果,以确定土地所有者的一般特征以及对两种非本地病害--由侧生疫霉引起的奥福德港雪松根病和由疫霉引起的橡树猝死--的了解情况。NIPF 的土地所有者在入侵疾病管理方面发挥着重要作用:识别并报告非本地植物疾病症状,以便及早发现和控制;实施管理措施,帮助减轻疾病传播;在恢复工作中种植抗病树苗。了解土地所有者对病害的认识对于让他们参与昆虫和病害防治工作非常重要。
