The Pest Management Alternatives Program (PMAP) offers this grant to support and encourage integrated pest management (IPM) practices, reducing human and environmental risks. This grant is for researchers addressing specific pest problems. It aligns with the “National Roadmap for Integrated Pest Management” goals. Commercial production faces severe challenges due to regulatory changes, new pest emergence, and developing pest resistance. Impacts are primarily on specialty crops, but also affect grain, forage, fiber, and animal health. This funding seeks innovative solutions for complex pest management issues, supporting the evolution of current technologies.

| Description: | The purpose of Pest Management Alternatives Program (PMAP) is to provide support for and encourage the development and implementation of integrated pest management (IPM) practices, tactics, and systems for specific pest problems while reducing human and environmental risks. This purpose addresses the broad goals outlined in the “National Roadmap for Integrated Pest Management,” developed by federal and non-federal IPM experts, practitioners, and stakeholders in 2004. The successful management of pest problems in commercial production is facing severe challenges due to regulatory changes, emergence of new pest problems, and the development of pest resistance to present management technologies. The greatest impact on current management technologies is in the production of specialty crops; however, other crops, including grain, forage and fiber, as well as animal health, are also being impacted by these changes. |
