Summary:
Developing a Pest Management Strategic Plan (PMSP) for rice in California would be the first one for this crop in the western states. Project objectives include: 1) Identify rice pest management research, regulatory, and extension needs and priorities; 2) Record baseline information on current pest management practices to, in the future, document changes in practices over time and the catalysts for change; and 3) Evaluate extension products and tools. The University of California (UC) Rice On-line website (http://rice.ucanr.edu/) and UC Pest Management Guidelines for Rice are prime resources for developing the initial draft PMSP. Key collaborators include UC Cooperative Extension advisors and specialists to guide the development of the draft PMSP, provide expertise in rice pest management, and bring together key grower, pest control adviser, and industry stakeholders. An experienced writer and editor with the UC Statewide IPM Program will draft the PMSP, facilitate the stakeholder meeting, and coordinate the review and finalize the PMSP for publication. Identifying rice stakeholder pest management needs and priorities is the first step to solving the most important pest issues and concerns.
