Impacts What was accomplished under these goals?
Comprehensive extension IPM programs were developed, maintained and delivered for four key emphasis areas: Agronomic Crops, Consumer/Urban Environments, Specialty Crops, and Public Health Pests. Specific education and training products delivered directly by the key scientists involved in these programs in 2016-2017 include: 40 extension publications; 46 other publications, including publications in refereed journals, proceedings, Arthropod Management Tests, and similar venues; 109 newsletters or articles for newsletters; 41 popular press articles in venues that target specific clientele groups; 205 educational presentations; 21 educational posters; 7 web casts and teleconferences; 223 extension trials and demonstrations; thousands of identifications of physically and digitally submitted insect and disease samples; and more than five thousand personal consultations via phone, internet, field days and site visits. Secondary delivery by extension agents, agricultural consultants, industry representatives, and Master Gardeners, greatly magnifies total impact. Specific examples of the types of positive benefits these IPM programs provide to Mississippi citizens and producers include: 1} the homeowner who avoids having their home damaged by termites because of information received through the extension education program. 2} the commercial nurseryman who is able to limit damage and control cost due to the newly invasive European pepper moth, Duponchelia fovealis, because of training and recommendations provided by the specialty crops IPM team 3} The municipal mosquito control program that is able to better control mosquitoes and better respond to citizen's concerns about Zika virus as a result of information provided by the MSU Public Health Pests IPM program. 4} The soybean producer who avoids serious late season damage by the newly invasive redbanded stink bug, Piezodorus guildinii, and successfully controls soybean diseases because of information provided by the Agronomic Crops IPM Program. 5} The commercial watermelon producer who increases production and quality as a result of disease control information and recommendations provided by the extension plant pathology specialty crops program.

Gardening enthusiasts and Master Gardener. Theater, New Albany, MS. Apr 16, 2016 What do you plan to do during the next reporting period to accomplish the goals?Goals and expected outputs for the next reporting period are similar to those reported for this year. We will continue to develop and deliver holistic Extension IPM education programs in all four emphasis areas: agronomic crops, communities/urban environments, specialty crops, and arthropods affecting public health.
Impacts What was accomplished under these goals?
Comprehensive extension IPM programs were developed, maintained and delivered for four key emphasis areas: Agronomic Crops, Consumer/Urban Environments, Specialty Crops, and Public Health Pests. Specific education and training products delivered directly by the key scientists involved in these programs in 2015-2016 include: 26 extension publications; 83 other publications, including publications in refereed journals, proceedings, Arthropod Management Tests, and similar venues; 144 newsletters or articles for newsletters; 46 popular press articles in venues that target specific clientele groups; 140 educational presentations; 24 educational posters; 6 web casts and teleconferences; 178 extension trials and demonstrations; thousands of identifications of physically and digitally submitted insect and disease samples; and more than five thousand personal consultations via phone, internet, field days and site visits. Secondary delivery by extension agents, agricultural consultants, industry representatives, and Master Gardeners, greatly magnifies total impact. Specific examples of the types of positive benefits these IPM programs provide to Mississippi citizens and producers include: 1} the homeowner who is able to successfully control fire ants in their lawn by following recommendations received through the extension education program. 2} the commercial institution with thousands of crape myrtles in their landscape that is able to promptly react to and control invasive crape myrtle bark scale because of training and recommendations provided by the specialty crops IPM team 3} The municipal mosquito control program that is able to better control mosquitoes and better respond to citizen's concerns about Zika virus as a result of information provided by the MSU Public Health Pests IPM program. 4} The soybean producer who saves more than $10 per acre by scouting and controlling soybean podworms, Helicoverpa zea, according to the MSU Extension soybean insect control recommendations. 5} The commercial tomato producer who produced hundreds more pounds of tomatoes per acre as a result of disease control information and recommendations provided by the extension plant pathology program.

What do you plan to do during the next reporting period to accomplish the goals?Goals and expected outputs for the next reporting period are similar to those reported for this first year. We will continue to develop and deliver holistic Extension IPM educations programs in all four emphasis areas: agronomic crops, communities/urban environments, specialty crops, and arthropods affecting public health.
Impacts What was accomplished under these goals?
Comprehensive extension IPM programs were developed, maintained and delivered for four key emphasis areas: Agronomic Crops, Communities/Consumer-urban Environments, Specialty Crops, and Public Health Pests. Specific education and training products delivered directly by the key scientists involved in these programs in 2014-2015 include: 12 extension publications; 33 other publications, including publications in refereed journals, proceedings, Arthropod Management Tests, and similar venues; 29 newsletters or articles for newsletters; 25 popular press articles in venues that target specific clientele groups; 124 educational presentations; 20 educational posters; 6 web casts and teleconferences; 65 extension trials and demonstrations; 2755 identifications of physically and digitally submitted insect and disease samples; and more than five thousand personal consultations via phone, internet, field days and site visits. Secondary delivery by extension agents, agricultural consultants, industry representatives, and Master Gardeners, greatly magnifies total impact. Specific examples of the types of positive benefits these IPM programs provide to Mississippi citizens and producers include: 1} the homeowner who maintains effective control of fire ants in their yard for less than $50 per year as a result of information received through the extension fire ant education program. 2} the small-scale cut-flower producer who learns to more effectively control insecticide resistant leaf miners in their gerbera daisies by incorporating biological control into their total pest management program because of training and recommendations provided by the specialty crops IPM team 3} The citizen who is able to more calmly deal with a bed bug infestation and achieve control more quickly as a result of information provided by the MSU Public Health Pests IPM program. 4} The cotton producer who saves $12 per acre in tarnished plant bug control cost and enjoys an 8% yield increase as a result of effective scouting and following the MSU Extension cotton insect control recommendations. 5} The nurseryman who avoids having to discard thousands of dollars' worth of potted plants as a result of disease control information and recommendations provided by the extension plant pathology program.
