Scaffolds 01 index

PEAR-RATUM

An error (only one?) has been found in the Recommends that we would like to correct: Table 50 (p. 193) lists a 7-day PHI for Nova on pears. However, this material is not labeled for use on pears, so the correct entry should in fact be a 'dash'.

NEWLY UPDATED IPM RESOURCES

The New York State Integrated Pest Management Program (Cornell University) has substantially improved its website, which now has a simpler URL: www.nysipm.cornell.edu. There are many links, free publications, and an abundance of information about agricultural pests and those that affect schools, homes, and municipalities. The new Catalog of IPM Resources and staff directory can be found on the website.
