Got an IPM question? Need to know the latest IPM information? The Northeastern IPM Center has the answers with our Fall webinar series “The IPM Toolbox.” The NEIPMC has asked the experts to join us online for an hour of dialogue about an effective IPM practice, method, or effort.
There are three webinars scheduled next month…
Laura Harrington (Cornell University) will discuss the new Northeast Regional Center of Excellence in Vector Borne Diseases and latest research to understand, prevent and treat diseases passed from insects to people, such as West Nile, Dengue, Zika and tick-borne Lyme disease.
Monday, September 11, 2017. 11:00 am – 12:00 pm
Scott Isard, Director, and Julie Golod (Penn State) will discuss the integrated Pest Information Platform for Extension and Education or iPiPE – which is designed to share local, regional, and national observations of agricultural pests (pathogens, insects and weeds) and beneficial insects in real-time for making more timely and informed management decisions.
Wednesday, September 13, 2017. 11:00 am – 12:00 pm
Ben Chambers (Virginia Tech), Rick Cooper (Cooper Pest Solutions), Tom Kuhar (Virginia Tech), Mike Raupp (University of Maryland), with moderators: Tracy Leskey (Appalachian Fruit Research Station) and George Hamilton (Rutgers University).
