We help you deal with pests—with the weeds, insects, and plant diseases that
infest your tree fruit, grapes, and berry crops. Our research, workshops,
demonstrations, and publications help you find answers to problems new and old.
Of course, each grower’s situation is different, and pest
management doesn’t exist in a vacuum—it's closely linked with other
management decisions on the farm. That's why we work closely with
local extension educators, crop consultants, agricultural
businesses, Cornell University faculty, and you to
teach a range of economically and environmentally sound ways to deal
with pest and farm management problems.
Our Fruit IPM
Working Group makes long-range plans for research and extension
projects. The group receives and reviews grant proposals submitted
to the NYS IPM grant program. The group promotes informed and
active teamwork and comprises growers, research and extension
faculty and educators, and private crop consultants. |
