| Abstract | As part of an area?wide integrated approach to fruit fly control, the sterile insect technique (SIT) was implemented in Trok Nong Subdistrict, Chanthaburi Province, Thailand. The project aimed to establish an area of low pest prevalence of fruit flies (FF-ALPP) under certification by the National Plant Protection Organization (NPPO), and to produce fruits that meet safety standards for consumption and export in accordance with the International Standard for Phytosanitary Measures (ISPM). The project includes a site suitability study, delimitation of core and buffer areas, and training programs to raise awareness among growers. SIT, using a genetic sexing strain of Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel), was conducted alongside male annihilation technique (MAT) and host sanitation. The average number of flies captured per trap per day (FTD) in the core area was significantly lower than in the neighboring area in both 2022 and 2023. Moreover, no economic fruits were damaged in the core area during 2023. |
