  • A Sustainable Agricultural Future Relies on the Transition to Organic Agroecological Pest Management
    sustainability Review A Sustainable Agricultural Future Relies on the Transition to Organic Agroecological Pest Management Lauren Brzozowski 1 and Michael Mazourek 1,2,* ID 1 Section of Plant Breeding and Genetics, School of Integrative Plant Science, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA; [email protected] 2 David R. Atkinson Center for Sustainable Future, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 21 April 2018; Accepted: 11 June 2018; Published: 15 June 2018 Abstract: The need to improve agricultural sustainability to secure yields, minimize environmental impacts and buffer environmental change is widely recognized. Investment in conventional agriculture has supported its present yield advantage. However, organic agriculture with agroecological management has nascent capacity for sustainable production and for increasing yields in the future. Conventional systems have leveraged reductionist approaches to address pests, primarily through pesticides that seek to eliminate biological factors that reduce yield, but come at a cost to human and ecosystem health, and leave production systems vulnerable to the development of pest resistance to these chemicals or traits. Alternatives are needed, and are found in organic production approaches. Although both organic and agroecology approaches encompass more than pest management, this aspect is a pivotal element of our agricultural future. Through increased investment and application of emerging analytical approaches to improve plant breeding for and management of these systems, yields and resilience will surpass approaches that address components alone. Keywords: organic agriculture; agroecology; pest management; plant breeding; biodiversity; sustainability; host plant resistance; pesticides 1. Achieving Needs for Agricultural Productivity and Pest Management Sustainably There is broad recognition among agricultural scientists that a growing world population will consume greater amounts of food and fiber with fewer resources available for production [1].

  • Bekah's Permaculture Assignment #7
    1 1. In your own words what is “IPM”? IPM stands for integrated pest management. This is a term used to describe an approach that deals with pests (in gardens, fields, on plants, etc.). It is called integrative because it utilizes multiple approaches and techniques to deal with pest populations. This helps to make this approach more sustainable that traditional pesticides that the vast majority of people use. 2. Give 5 specific examples of IPM. There are several types of IPM. Here are just a few of them: 1) Increasing predator populations (such as attracting birds, bats, praying mantis, and other predatory creatures that help to control and reduce pest population) 2) Polyculture/crop combining (this means to plant a wide variety of things because certain pests tend to like certain plants and so the more variety there is, the more likely you will be able to control and limit pests) 3) Delaying (this means that you delay planting your crops/plants so that you avoid the peak season of the particular pest you are trying to avoid) 4) Planting flowers (this helps to attract predatory things such as bees and wasps and it can cause confusion amongst pests due to the color and smell of flowers) 5) Natural pesticides (this refers to making natural sprays, such as from crushed up pests, to spray on the plants to repel the pests) 3. Why don’t most people practice IPM? Most people don’t practice IPM because it takes more effort than simply spraying on pesticides. Also, many people don’t know about IPM and so they can’t practice what they don’t know.

The increase in the global population has entailed an increase in the demand for agriculture in recent decades. Accordingly, there has been worldwide pressure to find means to improve the quality and productivity of agricultural crops. Antifungal agents have been widely used as an alternative for managing fungal diseases affecting several crops. However, the unregulated use of antifungals can jeopardize public health.

    News Release BASF introduces Encartis, a new dual-active fungicide for the golf course market RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, NC, July 14, 2021 – BASF has introduced Encartis™ fungicide, a powerful dual-active fairway solution that provides preventative and curative activity against dollar spot and 10 other key foliar diseases. Encartis fungicide is offered in a new, easy-to-use, pre-mix formulation, combining the strength of both boscalid and chlorothalonil for strong preventive defense and fast curative action. The dual-active solution provides long lasting protection for up to 28 days to help maintain healthy, disease-free playing conditions all season long. “Encartis is an outstanding fungicide pre-mix and always performed very well in trials at Clemson,” said Dr. Bruce Martin, Turfgrass Pathology Professor Emeritus, Clemson University. “The combination extends the spectrum of diseases controlled while providing defense against selection of resistant fungal strains. I am glad to see this product added to turf managers’ tools for disease control.” While perfect for fairways, Encartis fungicide can be used anywhere on the golf course, including tees and greens, at any time of the year to control key diseases. Superintendents can learn more about Encartis fungicide by contacting their local BASF representative.

  • 2012 Guide for Weed Management in Nebraska
    EXTENSION Know how. Know now. EC130 2012 Guide for Weed Management in Nebraska with Insecticide and Fungicide Information ® Introduction The 2012 Guide for Weed Management in Nebraska with Insecticide and Fungicide Information is a valuable tool for anyone with responsibility for pest management in crop, pasture, range, turf, or aquatic environ- ments in Nebraska. Our goal is to provide a comprehensive publication that will enable the user to make sound weed control decisions based on unbiased, research-based information, and to carry out weed control activities in a safe and responsible manner. The second half of the title, with Insecticide and Fungicide Information, highlights of fungicide and insecticide tables for corn, soybean, and wheat. Each section has been enhanced with the addition of a fungicide or insecticide dictionary and a table listing approximate retail prices of insecticide and fungicide products. We seek to make improvements in the Guide for Weed Management each year. In addition to the enhance- ments to the insecticide and fungicide sections, we have included color pest identification keys and photos in each discipline. All sections have been revised to include new products, label updates, and recent research results. If you have other suggestions, please submit them to Lowell Sandell (see address on the Weed Management divider page). Information in the 2012 Guide is organized into broad topical categories, highlighted in the Table of Contents on page 1. The Index, beginning on page 2, will help you quickly locate the information you need. Inside the back cover are Web addresses for other resources that will help you make informed weed management decisions.
