SUMMARY:Commercial Horticulture Webinar Series: Managing Pests in Cut Flowers
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a webinar on managing pests in cut flower production. Cut flowers are a high-value ornamental crop\, but even minor pest damage can significantly reduce their marketability. Having an integrated pest management plan in place before the season begins is essential to minimizing that damage. In this session\, we鈥檒l cover the biology of key insect pests affecting cut flowers and focus on a range of management strategies. Topics will include cultural prevention methods\, along with the basic requirements and key considerations for effective pesticide applications. \nRegister Online: Managing Pests in Cut Flowers \nRegistration is required; sliding scale fee options are available. For more information or to request a reasonable accommodation\, contact Rebecca Gray at 207.356.1348 or extension.gardening@maine.edu. \n海角社区 the Speaker\nJason Lilley聽is the Assistant Extension Professor of Sustainable Agriculture and the Maple Industry with U海角社区 Extension. His focus is on improving the overall environmental and economic sustainability of commercial farm operations.
