IPM matters. Why?

New York, with 19 million people, is one of the nation’s most heavily populated states.

It’s also among the 10 top agricultural producers nationwide in dairy, ornamental plants, fruits, vegetables—18 crops in all.

That’s why dealing safely with pests and pesticides, whether in town or on the farm, couldn’t be more important. IPM helps you manage pests—insects, plant diseases, weeds, and more—with methods that help keep health, economic, and environmental risks as low as possible.
