Zone 11

Apple, herb (lavender), 

Zone 12

Highbush blueberry

Zone 14

grass (brome), Grass (fescue), Herb (caraway), Quinoa, rhodiola

EFFICACY/CROP TOLERANCE TRIALS

Proponents must submit the “Efficacy and Crop Tolerance Application Form” (Appendix D, Attachment 1) for each trial for which a bid is being made. 

Location of the trial must be identified and efforts to ensure sufficient pest pressure at the site must be documented and submitted with the proposal.

Bids for trial locations in differing zones than indicated may be made with documented support that the crop is grown and that the pest occurs in the proposed zone. Preference may be given to locations in the zone specified for trial distribution purposes.

Efficacy/Crop Tolerance Trials are available for the following:

Entomology:

Blueberry (highbush), caneberry, cucumber (greenhouse), herb (mint), lettuce (greenhouse),lettuce (leaf), onion (green), ornamental (greenhouse), pepper, quinoa, strawberry, strawberry (greenhouse), tomato (greenhouse)

Pathology:

Beet (garden), caneberry, caneberry (raspberry), cranberry, edible honeysuckle, ginseng, grass (fescue), grass (timothy), greenhouse lettuce, herb (caraway), hops, lettuce (head), lettuce (leaf), ornamental (Christmas tree), ornamental (greenhouse), parsley, peach, pepper (greenhouse), plum, spinach, strawberry, swiss chard, tomato (greenhouse)

Weed Science:

Apple, cabbage, edible honeysuckle, garlic, grass (perennial ryegrass), grass (timothy), leek, onion (dry bulb), rhodiola

SCREENING TRIALS

Proponents must use the “Screening Trial Application Form” (Appendix D, Attachment 3) for each screening project proposal.

Screening Trial proposals may be submitted for the following:

Entomology:

Raspberry fruitworm, western raspberry fruitworm in caneberry

Emerald ash borer in ornamentals (birch, ash)

Weed Science:

Broadleaf weeds in quinoa

IPM DEMONSTRATION TRIALS

Proponents must use the “IPM and Demonstration Application Form” (Appendix D, Attachment 5).
