CSREES Plant and Pest
Biology Stakeholders' Workshop
CSREES held its second Stakeholders' Workshop
on Plant and Pest Biology Research, Education,
and Extension Priorities November 16, 2005.
It brought together representatives from
scientific societies, commodity groups, and
other organizations who presented their priorities
in research, education, and extension in
the context of CSREES’strategic goals.
The workshop also provided an opportunity
for communication between CSREES and the
stakeholders to ensure relevant issues were
being addressed, as well as to explore new
areas for consideration. In turn, the
workshop informed stakeholders of current
CSREES and interagency programs. Federal
program managers from CSREES, USDA Agricultural
Research Service, the Department of Energy,
and the National Science Foundation attended
and participated in a question and answer
session on Federal activities in plant and
pest biology.
