This federal Project Grant award, valued at $180,000 and provided by the USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) under the Crop Protection and Pest Management (CPPM) Competitive Grants Program (CFDA 10.329), supports integrated pest management (IPM) research, extension, and education initiatives at New Mexico State University (NMSU). The award aims to highlight the benefits of IPM, overcome perceived barriers, and increase IPM adoption across stakeholder groups in New Mexico. The project will focus on delivering IPM education and increasing adoption for agronomic/specialty crops, communities, pollinator health, pesticide applicators, and pest diagnostic facilities. This aligns with the CPPM program's priorities of supporting IPM for sustainable communities, diversified IPM systems, and plant protection tactics and tools. NMSU will leverage its expertise as a Hispanic-serving, land-grant research university to advance these objectives through applied research, education, and extension services across the state.
