On September 10, 2014 the Biopesticide and Organic Support program
will hold a Biopesticide Workshop at the Marriott Hotel Atlanta-Buckhead. The
goal of the workshop is to bring together growers, extension, research and
biopesticide manufacturers to discuss and prioritize research needs. These
priorities will be utilized in guiding the biopesticide efficacy research grant
program for 2015. The workshop will cover pest management in many diverse uses
including fruits, vegetables, ornamentals, public health, honeybees, etc. The
types of products will include all classes of biopesticides including
natural products, pheromones, microorganisms and biotechnology
products. Overall the program will emphasize integration of biopesticides into
conventional programs as well as the needs of the organic community. This
will conveniently be in conjunction with the IR-4 Food Use Workshop
A form to request your priority needs is available online http://ir4app.rutgers.edu/biopestPub/FmAndList.aspx
