Since 2013, the California Department of Pesticide Regulation (CADPR) Pest Management Research Grant Program has been providing funds for research projects that develop integrated pest management (IPM) in both agricultural and urban situations. To date, more than 4 million dollars has been awarded to fund 18 projects. Over the same time period 1.8 million dollars has been awarded for research contracts to explore facets of IPM of special interest to CADPR. Sharing the outcomes of this research is integral to the mission of CADPR, part of which is to “foster reduced-risk pest management”.
To that end, CADPR is hosting an Integrated Pest Management Research Symposium to showcase CADPR funded research and outreach projects that have recently been completed, or are nearing completion.
This event will take place on March 21, 2017, from 9:00 to 4:30, at the following location:
Sacramento State University
Modoc Hall, Willow Suites 2 & 3
3020 State University Dr.
Sacramento, CA
Lunch will be provided and parking passes will be provided at the venue. Registration is free here. Seating is limited so register early. Registration will close on March 15.
