Join us for a hands-on event on IPM, connecting you with resources and evidence for advancing IPM strategies on farm.
The aim of the meeting is to provide support in the use of resources and accessing information for advancing IPM implementation on farm, and to launch a Pilot IPM Network, supporting farmers and advisors to share knowledge and data on IPM strategies.
The event will draw together outputs from three ongoing EU funded IPM related projects; IPM Decisions, IPMWORKS, and OPER8 (alternative weed management).
We will highlight what tools, and information is available, and where to get it, and provide evidence from field based demonstrations that show IPM in action.
