We are very excited to announce that Ontario CropIPM, our interactive IPM training program is now online!

You can find it in English at http://www.omafra.gov.on.ca/IPM/english/index.html,
And in French at http://www.omafra.gov.on.ca/IPM/french/index.html.

Ontario CropIPM is an interactive educational tool to improve your knowledge of Integrated Pest Management in Ontario crops. Growers, scouts and consultants will be able to learn about insects, diseases, disorders, and weeds by:

• searching photo galleries,
• using identification keys,
• consulting pest scouting calendars,
• comparing photos of often-confused pests,
• learning about soil diagnostics and herbicide injury,
• referring to glossaries,
• and checking additional resources.

Ontario CropIPM includes modules for:

• Brassicas, Cucurbits, Peppers, Strawberries, Sweet corn,
• Tomatoes

We expect to be adding more crops as time goes on.
