Southwest New York Dairy, Livestock and Field Crops Program

To make information about the Birds and Bees Protection Act, ongoing research and current findings accessible to growers, Cornell IPM and project partners from Cornell University and Cornell Cooperative Extension are hosting a series of informational meetings for growers, crop consultants, certified crop advisors, industry representatives, crop managers and policymakers at locations across the state.

Topics will include research updates on seedcorn maggot, tools for assessing risk and predicting pest pressure, and a discussion on neonicotinoids—what they are and how to adjust management practices without them. We'll also take a look at ongoing field research.

Lunch will be available for attendees!

1.25 DEC credits in 1a, 4, 10, 21 have been approved. CCA credits will be requested.
