The mission of the Mid-Atlantic Information Network for Pesticides and Alternatives Strategies is to promote informed regulatory decisions on registered pesticides used on commodities grown in states of the Mid-Atlantic region. Emphasis will be placed on decisions related to the Food Quality Protection Act (FQPA). As a member of the Mid-Atlantic region, the West Virginia Information Network for Pesticides and Alternatives Strategies program was established to:
  • Improve the level of knowledge, awareness, and understanding about pest management practices, including pesticides, and pesticide use and usage for individuals and agencies making regulatory decisions.
  • Bring together key individuals to form partnerships and collaborations that will promote more informed decision-making on pest management practices including pesticide usage.
  • Enhance the productivity and global competitiveness of the U.S. agricultural production system.
