BioControl Strategies at the Front Lines, presented by Alison, 9:45 a.m. Aug 22nd. 

Pest trying to outwit you? This talk will cover best practices for keeping beneficial insects and microbial tools working for you as the first line of defense in your greenhouse. Even with the best biological control program we all occasionally must spray, so let's discuss maximizing and fine tuning your program while minimizing negative impacts on beneficials. These days with more biological tools than ever before, we can easily reduce reliance on conventional chemistries. This presentation will help you find a fresh balance between biological insecticides, biofungicides and the beneficial insects working in your greenhouse.
