The New York State Integrated Pest Management (NYSIPM) Program, based in Babylon, NY, is dedicated to developing sustainable methods for managing pests and minimizing environmental, health, and economic risks. They provide education and outreach to help individuals and organizations make data-driven decisions in their pest management plans, using tools and data for risk assessment. NYSIPM focuses on a wide range of areas, including agriculture, vineyards, orchards, schools, nursing homes, playgrounds, and even homes and gardens. Their research initiatives aim to pioneer ecologically resilient pest management practices for safer and more sustainable pest control strategies.
NYSIPM offers resources and support for pest identification, beneficial insects, biocontrol, and invasive species management. They also provide information on integrated pest management (IPM) for various sectors, such as fruit, vegetables, ornamental crops, field crops, livestock, homes and buildings, schools and daycare centers, and landscapes, parks, and golf courses. Additionally, NYSIPM houses the Pesticide Safety Education Program (PSEP) of Cornell Cooperative Extension, further emphasizing their commitment to promoting safe and responsible pest management practices.
