As a grower of greenhouse flowers, nursery stock, Christmas trees, or herbaceous perennials there are some situations where you do not have pest control materials that will give reliable control to your problem. Identify those situations on the survey to help direct researchers to work toward solutions. We all know that pesticide resistance, invasive species, changing pest populations and crop safety (phytotoxicity) are issues that contribute to pest control problems in our industries.
Take a few minutes to complete the IR-4 Ornamental Horticulture Program Survey. This survey helps to identify local, regional and national pest management holes where there are limited or no tools to manage disease, pest, and weed populations. It also identifies key crops where crop safety information is needed.
