Research Summary: Currently, there is limited research and best practices regarding pest management for cannabis production. Many growers resort to management programs designed for other crops but are met with limited effectiveness. The proposed project will work in collaboration with producers and suppliers to develop cannabis-specific pest management recommendations for both indoor and outdoor production, providing growers with validated effective pest management practices for this new, rapidly expanding sector.
