Spotted Lanternfly Survey

Dear Wine and Grape Industry Members,

Spotted Lanternfly (SLF) threatens the grape and wine industry. However, we have not formally collected evidence on SLF impacts on the grape and wine industry regarding yield loss, management costs, potential business reputation loss, and industry outlook.

With your help, this survey aims to fill this gap and collect data on SLF’s actual costs to grape and wine industry members.

Even if your vineyard or winery is not impacted, please fill out the survey.

You can access the survey here: https://pennstate.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_b1I8lGq5cZxQMl0

If you have questions about this survey, please contact Claudia Schmidt (czs...@psu.edu).
