Editing Raspberry (section)

==== Animals ====
Raspberries, among other plants with high sugar content like peaches, are prime targets for the [[Japanese beetle]], which relies heavily on these sources as its main food resource. The voracious feeding habits of Japanese beetles not only pose a direct threat to raspberry plants but also increase the risk of transmitting various plant diseases. This dual impact can significantly undermine agricultural productivity, making it crucial for raspberry growers to implement effective pest management strategies to mitigate the damage caused by Japanese beetle infestations.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Japanese beetle - Popillia japonica |url=https://entnemdept.ufl.edu/creatures/orn/beetles/japanese_beetle.htm |access-date=25 April 2024 |website=entnemdept.ufl.edu }}</ref><ref>{{Cite report |title=Popillia japonica (Japanese beetle) |last=Klein |first=M |date=7 January 2022 |doi=10.1079/cabicompendium.43599 |language=en |doi-access=free }}</ref>
