This project was an extension of the 2003-2006 project titled Implementing IPM in arable crops in New Zealand.
This follow-up project involved on-farm trials with a new group of collaborating farmers to demonstrate IPM to achieve control of all pests in arable crops across the south island of New Zealand. Field days were held at the trial sites where other farmers and agronomists were invited to see the results at harvest.
