A brief description of the IPM program:
At the Lyle Center of Regenerative Studies, 16 acres are maintained with an IPM plan. Insects which threaten crops are controlled through integrated pest management techniques. Flowering plants in the garden attract predatory insects which feed on agricultural pests. Organic pesticides made out of garlic and peppers are also applied.
IPM is also a top consideration at 40 acres of AGRIscapes, where an IPM program is used in every decision made in regard to any pesticide used based on a four tiered approach.
