Timely information on integrated pest management for North Carolina crops/sites and pests is available from the North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service and other sources.
The North Carolina Extension IPM Program serves as a focal point for team building, communication and stakeholder participation in integrated pest management (IPM) within the state. Program goals include promoting effective and economical management of pests, reducing risks to human health from pests and pest management practices, and minimizing environmental effects through the adoption of IPM on a variety of crops and settings in North Carolina. These goals are achieved by the timely delivery of IPM technology and research information to stakeholders in all regions of the state.
