Workshop on organic vegetable production coming up!

Our lab is organizing, in collaboration with UF/IFAS Extension agent Tatiana Sanchez-Jones, the first Updates on Organic Vegetable Production Workshop on September 25 at the UF/IFAS Plant Science Research and Education Unit in Citra, FL. We will discuss pest management for organic production and provide a display of the major insect pests to be addressed. This event is sponsored by the USDA-NIFA (grant number: 2024-51300-43092) through the project titled: “Integrative management of whiteflies for organic cucurbit production in the US Southern Region”.
