Project Title
Diagnose, Inform, & Manage (DIM) - IPM Resources for South Florida
Participants: Dr. Aaron Palmateer, Ian Maguire, Henry Mayer
Project Description:
South Florida has a diverse agricultural community with over 1600 ornamental nurseries in Miami-Dade County alone. Establishing a successful IPM program in the nursery must begin with the proper diagnosis of diseases and disorders. The Florida Extension Plant Diagnostic Clinic (FEPDC) located at the Tropical Research and Education Center (TREC) in Homestead is committed to helping clients properly diagnose plant diseases and disorders, and inform growers of effective management strategies. Our goal is to increase awareness of the FEPDC among the South Florida growing community by promoting the availability of our resources in English and Spanish with the use of traditional advertising methods (print material) and emerging technology (Internet based video, blogs, DVD/CDROM, etc.). Materials produced throughout this project will be disseminated via World Wide Web, local industry trade shows, and agricultural areas of interest to South Florida growers. With a steady increase of housing and development urban agriculture is on the rise making it more important than ever to practice environmentally sound disease and pest management strategies.
