End Date: Aug 31, 2010

Objective:
To obtain efficacy and residual data of insecticides and miticides on vegetable crops and ornamentals against insects and mites.

Approach:
Field evaluations of insecticides, miticides, fungicides, and herbicides will be conducted on vegetable and ornamental crops. Research will be conducted according to IR-4 protocols and good laboratory practices. No specific treatments can be mentioned ahead of time because program needs change depending on industry requests. Residue samples will be assayed by appropriate federal, state, or private laboratories.
