Entomologists at Geneva are dedicated to the protection of horticultural crops from attack by insects and mites. Entomologists study the biology and ecology of crop pests, improved pesticide management procedures, and alternative control strategies to reduce the use of chemicals. A significant part of the crop protection program in New York State is to encourage the practice of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) procedures. Working closely with researchers, farmers, extension agents, and industry, the group has been able to implement many pest control strategies that are effective, economical, and safe.
