Integrated Pest Management programs in nursery and greenhouse systems must be intentionally designed to be effective, practical, and sustainable. This webinar focuses on how to build an IPM program from the ground up or refine an existing program to improve consistency and outcomes. Participants will learn the core components of a successful IPM program, including pest monitoring, accurate identification, action thresholds, cultural and environmental management, and strategic use of chemical and biological controls. Emphasis will be placed on decision-making processes, recordkeeping, and aligning pest management strategies with production goals and labor realities. Common barriers to IPM adoption will be discussed, along with practical solutions for implementation in real-world production environments. This session is ideal for growers, production managers, and consultants seeking structured IPM programs that reduce pest pressure and support long-term crop health.

Effective disease management in greenhouse and nursery production begins long before fungicides are applied. This webinar focuses on how environmental conditions, sanitation practices, and cultural decisions influence disease development and spread in controlled production systems. Participants will learn to recognize early disease symptoms, identify common production-related risk factors, and understand how moisture, airflow, temperature, and plant density contribute to outbreaks. The session will also cover strategic fungicide selection, proper application timing, and resistance management, emphasizing decision-making rather than calendar-based spraying. Practical prevention strategies, including sanitation protocols and production adjustments, will be discussed to help reduce disease pressure and improve overall crop health. This webinar is designed for growers, production managers, and consultants seeking proactive, integrated approaches to disease management.

Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is more than reducing pesticide use—it is a systematic decision-making process that improves pest control outcomes while minimizing risk to people, plants, and the environment. This on-demand webinar provides a clear, practical foundation in IPM principles tailored to ornamental landscape, nursery, and greenhouse professionals.

Participants will learn the core components of an effective IPM program, including pest identification, monitoring and scouting techniques, action thresholds, recordkeeping, and selection of appropriate control strategies. Emphasis is placed on prevention-first thinking, integrating cultural, mechanical, biological, and chemical tools into a cohesive management plan.

The program explains how to properly diagnose pest problems before treatment, how to evaluate contributing environmental factors, and how to avoid common misapplications that lead to resistance, control failures, and unnecessary pesticide use. Real-world examples illustrate how IPM improves efficiency, reduces costs, and strengthens client confidence.

By the end of this course, participants will understand:

The principles and goals of Integrated Pest Management

How to implement systematic scouting and monitoring programs

How to establish and apply action thresholds

How to select control measures within an IPM framework

How proper documentation supports regulatory compliance and long-term success

This course is designed for commercial pesticide applicators, landscape professionals, greenhouse and nursery managers, and others seeking a practical, structured approach to pest management in ornamental systems.

Understand insecticide MOAs, resistance development, and how smart rotation improves pest control performance.

Insecticide control failures can result from resistance development, improper product selection, mistimed applications, or environmental influences. This on-demand course provides practical instruction on diagnosing control failures and using insecticide mode-of-action (MOA) knowledge to improve treatment outcomes.

Designed for ornamental landscape and turf applicators, this program explains how repeated use of products with the same mode of action can reduce effectiveness over time. Participants will learn how to interpret IRAC group classifications, develop rotation strategies, and integrate resistance management into their overall pest management program.

Topics covered include:

Common causes of insecticide performance failures

Insecticide mode-of-action classifications and IRAC group numbers

Resistance development and resistance management planning

Proper rotation strategies for single and multiple pest scenarios

Application timing based on insect biology

Coverage, calibration, and environmental considerations

Label interpretation and regulatory compliance

This course emphasizes structured decision-making to extend product effectiveness, reduce unnecessary applications, and strengthen long-term pest management programs.
