This $273,000 Project Grant award from the USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) under the Crop Protection and Pest Management (CPPM) Competitive Grants Program will support integrated pest management (IPM) implementation efforts across Oregon. The key objectives are to: (1) develop IPM strategic plans and strengthen IPM outreach/education for agronomic and specialty crops; (2) enhance a statewide IPM website for urban and rural communities; (3) create educational content on pesticide use, resistance management, and risk mitigation for pesticide applicators; and (4) provide pest identification training and support diagnostic services targeting issues in multiple crop systems. The awardee, Oregon State University, will deliver these services through a combination of in-person, hybrid, and online programs, with materials available in both English and Spanish. The project will run from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2025.
