Speaker: Raymond A. Cloyd, Ph.D., Professor and Extension Specialist, Kansas State University

Raymond will discuss the factors associated with resistance management including how resistance occurs, mechanisms of resistance, and the biological factors that promote resistance developing in insect and/or mite pest populations. Raymond will then discuss, in detail, how to delay the prospect of resistance developing to current insecticides and miticides by rotating different modes of action. The presentation will provide applied information that will help you mitigate insect and/or mite pest populations developing resistance to insecticides and miticides.
