Four New Pest
Management
Centers
WASHINGTON, D.C. Ag
riculture Deputy Secretary Rich
ard Rominger announced recent
ly the creation of regional pest
management centers that will
help focus research and exten
sion efforts on developing and
delivering alternative and safer
pest management strategies to
farmers and ranchers.
“These centers will help
strengthen the connection be
tween production agriculture, re
search, and extension programs,
and agricultural stakeholders
throughout the U. 5.,” said Ro
minger. “For example, the cen
ters will play a key role in
USDA’s efforts to work with
EPA on the continued imple
mentation of the Food Quality
Protection Act.”
The centers will bring together
university research and extension
specialists in each region of the
country. In the north central re
gion, Michigan State University,
and the University of Illinois will
lead a multi-state coalition.
Similar coalitions are estab
lished in other areas. Pennsylva
nia State University and Cornell
University are the lead institu
tions in the Northeast. In the
South and West, the University
of Florida and the University of
California at Davis are the lead
institutions.
Rominger emphasized that
these cooperative partnerships
will involve colleges, universities,
and crop production experts
from states within the region.
The centers will focus their ef
forts on pest management issues
that are common to agricultural
production within a region and
across state boundaries.
A key objective of the centers
is the formation of a responsive
pest management network that is
able to inform public and private
sectors about emerging issues
and to identify farmer needs and
priorities.
