Project Type: Non-Assistance Cooperative Agreement

Start Date: Sep 1, 2014
End Date: Aug 31, 2019

Objective:
The objective of the current research project is to conduct demonstration field trials of anaerobic soil disinfestation to encourage mid- and small-scale in-ground cut flower producers to evaluate this technique for pest control on their farms.

Approach:
Replicated field trials will be conducted with grower cooperator. Trials will be established at the commercial farm and harvests conducted based on the grower standard.
