2019 WERA-1017 Annual Meeting September 18-19 2019 Richland Community Center, Richland, WA

Attending: Jim Farrar, Paul Jepson, Peter Ellsworth, Al Fournier, Katie Murray, Natalie Ferris, Amer Fayad, Steve Elliott, Matt Baur, Naomi Pier, Doug Walsh, Diane Alston, Marion Murray, Mary Burrows, John Connett, Bob Nowierski, Laura Lavine, Rhonda Hirnyck, Tunyalee, Frank Piers, Greta Dupuis, Sally O'Neil, Melody Hefner (Nevada), Miranda Kerston (NM), Scott Werner, Len Coop, Sarah Eilers, Mark Wright

Discussion of the WERA-1017 continuation report and new project proposal

Doug Walsh will work with Mary Burrows (incoming Chair) on developing the report

Discussed:
- Structuring state reports using impact style with reference to specific WERA Objectives
- Possibly focusing the WERA report on knowledge and collaboration/cooperation gains and sorting by WERA objectives (merging efforts by objectives) rather than by state
- Highlighting impacts across commodities similar to the W-4185 project
- State reports should highlight the 20% of EIP grants that is focused on research to help develop the next proposal (see below)

ACTION ITEM: Mary Burrows will share the template for state reports through WERA listserv

The current project terminates next year and the new proposal draft is due in six to eight months with one more in-person meeting before the proposal is due. The last proposal was written by Mary Burrows and Tom Holzer. Reviews of the previous proposals and reports identified the need to highlight research activities in addition to the extension activities

Discussed items included:
- Assuring that objectives in the next project proposal can be accomplished within the timeframe
- State reports should highlight the 20% of EIP grants that is focused on research to help develop the proposal
- The proposal/report should include summaries from Risk Communication Signature Program subgroup
  - Katie will help to assemble this component for the proposal
- Highlight the Project Director Workshop held in connection with the WERA1017 meeting includes the ARDP program
- The proposal could contain a synthesis component such as state of IPM in the west, research gaps, areas for improvement, achievements and flow of information between
- Extension and research,

WERA-1017 report to National IPM Coordinating Committee (NIPMCC)

Doug will need state reports to develop the NIPMCC report

The West should identify a chair-elect for NIPMCC

Concerns about current NIPMCC efforts were raised including a general lack of information about the upcoming meeting in October released to the larger IPM community

NIFA/EIP Update (Bob Nowierski)

Fiscal year 19/20 CPPM awards have been processed and ARDP award information is forthcoming

About 25% of NIFA staff will report in Kansas City, Missouri by the end of the month, and National Program Lead jobs announced at gov

Bob will probably be the intermn NPL for CPPM and as such requests briefs from advisory committees

Six NIFA science liaisons will stay in DC

In an effort to alleviate some of the pressure on the remaining NIFA staff, the WERA group suggested that IPM Centers might be able to help administer the CPPM program

The RFP for EIP is in the works but not ready for prime time

ACTION ITEM: Jim and Peter will draft a recommendation for moving administration of CPPM programs to the regional IPM centers and circulate to the WERA committee

ACTION ITEM: Doug will bring up the proposal to move administration of CPPM programs to the regional IPM centers at the NIPMCC meeting in October in Washington DC

Western IPM Center Update (Team)

On the CPPM common measures initiative
- The IPM centers will accumulate common measures in the accomplishments section of REEPort
- The common measures will be a summary of products and outputs (tallies) & statistics on knowledge and behavior changes
- Also discussed was the measurement of Continuing Education Credits (CEUs) as a knowledge change category
- Discussed were Agriculture Experiment Station Directors workshops on developing short paragraphs focused on a subset of stakeholders and the impacts for that community in story format

General overviews of the Center signature programs were provided
- The Risk Communication Signature program seeks to develop a better understanding and ability to communicate pesticide risk and hazards by IPM extension personnel in the West
- The Network Coordination Signature program seeks to provide information to inform EPA decisions, and the efforts on the part of Al Fournier to document the impacts of these efforts including examples where Center comments are cited in EPA decisions and case studies documenting the economic impacts of the EPA decisions
- Crop-Pest Losses workgroups benchmarks industries on where they stand on IPM. And for IPM programs can serve as a needs assessment or program evaluation or strategic planning process
  - To date assessments in the Pacific Northwest include onions, potatoes, mint, cranberry, sweet cherry, hazelnut, and planned are the pear and nursery industries

NRCS 595 (IPM) Standard Discussion

To qualify for EQUIP funds, the NRCS 595 Standard requires growers to use IPM recommendations extended by Land Grant Universities, but in the West, some specialty crops do not have established IPM programs developed by the state LGU. UC IPM guidelines cover 47 crops, but 100's of crops grown in the state.

Ask: Is there a way to cover a minor/specialty crop in a state where an IPM system isn't published? Could the WERA committee develop IPM guidelines for minor crops not covered by an existing document?

NRCS has reached out to Mary Burrows and Katie Murray

Decided that the WERA committee is interested in further discussion on expectations and funds allocated to the process with NRCS

ACTION ITEM: Mary will forward the communication with NRCS to Jim

ACTION ITEM: Katie Murray will forward the NRCS meeting request to Jim -

Project Director Workshop for CPPM program

ARDP Project Director Report:

Development of Integrated Pest Management Strategies for Commercial Dairies: Formulating Dairy Total Mixed Rations that are Resistant to Bird Depredation

Scott Werner, Research Wildlife Biologist at the USDA National Wildlife Research Center in Fort Collins
- The focus of the project is the development of bird resistant (BR) feed formulations
- Bird impacts include disease transmission (salmonella, & others) and diminished economic returns by consuming feed
- Increased pellet size and pellet cohesion decreased bird depredation
- The bird resistant (BR) pellets with increased size and cohesion negatively affected Average Daily Gain (ADG), milk production, and fat and lactose yield, but the effect varied by breed
- The BR pellets will be economical under high bird pressure, but the level of pressure is yet to be determined

School IPM training modules are available online

Infographics used as building blocks for IPM training sessions

Interest in hemp IPM program

Pests of concern include:
- cheatgrass and grasshoppers on rangelands and natural areas

Also highlighted were the activities of:
- Scott Schell, who is running the diagnostic laboratory and developing a degree day model for alfalfa weevil for Wyoming
- Derek Scasta (rangeland specialist), who is working on hornflies & lice affecting livestock
- Dan Tekiela, who focuses on invasive plant biology and will serve on the WERA 1017 committee next year

Arizona (Peter Ellsworth)

Urban program
- School IPM program covers inside and outside environments and is active in 12 districts and in a tribal nation, and conducted 2nd Arizona school IPM conference in April
- Also conducted the Southwest Rodent Academy and the Termite Academy
- The part of the IPM program focused on Native American Indians has now reached 15 tribes

Specialty crops
- Primarily lettuce and melons, and program has reached 1100 participants, provided 50 CEUs, and saved the industry between $500,000 to $1,000,000

New project on blister beetles in organic spinach and other vegetable crops

Agronomic crops
- Use of sulfoxaflor restored because of APMC comments and this is worth several million dollars in savings to growers
- Predator thresholds launched for cotton producers and widely accepted by pest control advisors and growers. APMC developed a visor guide with pictures of predators and levels to defer a white fly spray. These outputs have been translated into Spanish and this was paid for by industry.

WERA1017 participants awareness of regional and national integrated pest management issues has increased due to participation in annual meetings. The virtual meeting held in the spring of 2020 highlighted western regional IPM issues along with in-depth research projects and programs. Reports were presented to the group for four USDA-NIFA ARDP projects (Applied Research and Development Program): Using Crop Variety, Crop Diversification, Cover Crops, and Targeted Grazing to Chip Away at Multiple Herbicide Resistant Weeds; IPM Methods to Control Replant Disease of Tree Fruit; Integration of early harvest with biological control for sustainable alfalfa production and Fielding a strong defense: optimizing the effectiveness of pheromone-based lures for detection of invasive cerambycid beetles. Project director reports that were presented from Arizona, California, Alaska, Guam, New Mexico, Idaho, and Wyoming and state reports focused on the strategies/research implemented by the group to address integrated pest management needs. Members participated in numerous IPM associated meetings and conferences including but not limited to:

Western Pesticide Risk Reduction Workgroup

Western SARE annual meeting

National Plant Diagnostic Network (Western and Great Plains Diagnostic Networks)

State nursery and landscape association meetings

Pest Management Strategic Plans (https://ipmdata.ipmcenters.org/source_list.cfm?sourcetypeid=4) and Crop Profiles (https://ipmdata.ipmcenters.org/source_list.cfm?sourcetypeid=3)

Northcentral IPM Center Pulse Crop Working Group

IR-4 Project

Western Association of Agricultural Experiment Station Directors

National IPM Coordinating Committee

Professional society meetings: American Phytopathological Society, Weed Science Society of America, Entomological Society of America, Agronomy Society of America, Crop Science Society of America, etc.

Outcomes and Impacts

WERA1017 engagement allows members the opportunity to acquire knowledge from a diverse group of educators who all are focused on regional and national IPM issues. The collaborative model that the committee follows is based on allows for the dissemination of information to members. Outreach activities, research, and evaluation methods have all been shared with its members. Collaborative multistate projects multiply the benefits each state receives. Besides not replicating already existing programs, the collaborative model reduces individual state responsibilities while at the same time increasing the availability of outreach materials to multiple regions.

The Western Pesticide Risk Reduction Group published the Pesticide Risk-Reduction: An International Guideline in The Lancet: Planetary Health in March 2020. This paper classifies 659 active ingredients based on their risks to humans and the environment, including including biomagnification and atmospheric ozone depletion and risks to aquatic life, terrestrial wildlife, and pollinators.

The Western Region IR-4 Project had 43 priority requests for the Food Use Workshop. At the food use workshop representatives from all the states prioritize products for residue and efficacy testing. All requests have an IPM-fit statement that is the result of consulting with IPM experts making the request.

The Western Plant Diagnostic Network (WPDN) consists of ten western States and two U.S. territories in the Pacific. Land grant universities house the diagnostic labs. The WPDN labs cover 26% of the US land area. Every sample is an opportunity to educate the public about IPM.

WERA1017 Objective 2: Increase relevance of federal and regional IPM RFA’s, programs, and policies to better align them with regional stakeholder needs.

Accomplishments

The WERA 1017 annual meeting provided attendees the opportunity to be informed about federal and regional programs. Bob Nowierski, National Program Leader for Bio-Based Pest Management reported on NIFA programs. He gave a status report on the EIP, RCP and ARDP funding programs and the deadlines associated with them. He gave updates on new staff, new location and points of contact for plant protection and integrated pest management issues. Matt Bauer, Associate Director of the Western IPM center, presented on the programs of the center.

The Western IPM center funded 10 projects in 2019 and had received 36 proposals representing 10 out of the 13 Western states for the 2020 funding cycle.

IPM Summit, hosted by the Oregon IPM Center with over 50 faculty attending from various departments and programs. designed to bring together the different people and groups, including faculty and staff from extension and research, working in IPM at OSU. The primary goal of the summit was to identify goals, barriers, and needs for advancing IPM in Oregon

Western SARE funded projects in 10 western states along with Guam, America Samoa and the Northern Marian Islands in 2019.

Outputs

Discussions were held on the ramifications of NIFA transitions/staffing and how they will influence state programming.

Western IPM Center funded 10 projects in 2019, from rodent and kochia work groups to research into codling moth mating disruption and bacterial blight in seed crops

IPM Summit findings included the need for increased communication across faculty, increased resources (financial resources as well as IPM-related resources), professional capacity development in IPM for agricultural Extension faculty, and more tools and resources that support IPM decision making.

There were 70 funded Western SARE projects and the release of the Fresh Growth podcast in 2019

WERA1017 Objective 3: Enhance collaboration, sharing of ideas, and hence creation of regional outputs such as multi-state grants and shared outreach materials

Accomplishments

Multi-state collaborations have increased which has significantly improved shared outreach materials. Pest and weather models, surveys, production guides, webinars, and websites are all part of the regional outputs. Outreach materials have expanded reach due to the multi-state collaborations.

WERA1017 Objective 4: Improve coordination of IPM programs that address on-going, emerging, and other critical pest and related environmental issues. 

Accomplishments

WERA1017 members can address emerging and on-going critical pest issues rapidly due to the involvement of participants IPM events. Members attend IPM National Stakeholder Workgroup meetings, participate in state invasive species councils, landscape associations and first detector training events throughout the country. The committee offers members the chance to disseminate this information to fellow IPM educators. Two environmental issues that arose at the 2020 meeting were the diminishing number of weed scientists in the west and the arrival of murder hornets. A discussion was held were available regional resources were identified. WERA1017 interactions allow for the information to be shared.

Western IPM Center Associate Director Matt Baur, in addition to leading the Center for much of 2019 and overseeing our grant program, also was an active participant in the Western Governors’ Association initiative on invasive species.
