Conservation Biocontrol on Urban Farms in NYC

November 1, 2021


Join us as we discuss the results of our 3-year project with NYS IPM to help urban NYC growers improve their management of arthropod pests by attracting and conserving natural enemies (arthropods that prey on pest arthropods). CCE Intern, Ileana Katzman will present the findings from her work this past summer monitoring three cooperating urban farms to assess the diversity and abundance of natural enemies and pests of interest to these growers, as well as the amount of damage the pests are doing to crops.
