Integrated pest management for stone fruits in the United States in not widely practiced at a high level. The most advanced integrated pest management is practiced in California, where the production of stone fruits is most intensive.

Proposed guidelines for sweet cherry production are available in New York, and organic and biological control options for pest control are available in California for peaches and plums. The greatest obstacles for further development of pest management are the zero tolerance for cherry fruit fly in exported fruit and the need for calendar based sprays for cat-facing insects on peach in the East
