Check out the video on our Cornell-State Park relationship that began with 15 years of pesticide-reducing research at Bethpage. Note that the “she” in Frank Rossi’s opening “she said” line is me!

[Cornell Turfgrass @Cornell_Turf]

The 25-year collaboration between @CornellCALS and @NYstateparks began with research on Long Island and evolved into a service partnership with superintendents statewide, making small changes that yield big ecological impacts.

This legacy sets the stage for the next generation of golf best management practices and turfgrass stewardship.

Research coming out the @McArtlab at Cornell--feeding substance to bees to sequester neonicotonoids and thereby improve bee health @nysipm @Cornell_Turf

[Benjamin Z Houlton 🌍 @BenHoulton]

Outstanding collaborative breakthrough led by scientists in the Department of Biological and Environmental Engineering and Department of Entomology in @CornellCALS

Excellent use of technology for practical pollinator habitat enhancement!

[Cornell AgriTech @CornellAgriTech]

An innovation led by researchers at @CornellCALS and @CornellAgriTech allows growers to use corn seed planting machines to plant milkweed and wildflowers next to their fields, boosting habitat for monarch butterflies and bees. #biodiversity https://t.co/LGcc822mEq

Those rats better watch out with @JodyGangloffK and @MateoFrye on the job! @NYSIPM

[Julie Suarez @JulieSuarez12]

So proud of @NYSIPM partnership with @NYCMayor to host the Inaugural Urban Rat Summit! Cleaning up the garbage & adopting structural exclusion techniques recommended by IPM will help! https://t.co/xpGXXdeYKf

Apropos of nothing, I just found this to be a gorgeous photo of this beetle as well as its hitchhiking mites.

Thanks to Sigma Alpha for inviting @NYSIPM to join #ArtofAgriculture Day. We loved sharing the art behind IPM with the @CornellCALS community.

[Jennifer Grant @IPM_jag]

I gotta agree with Lynn on this! Maybe if Caitlin's allowed to sell T-shirts on the side she can crack 6 figures a year...

Are. You. Sh*tting. Me.

That's right Tyler! It's never too late to implement the practices that many of us have been promoting for decades. Thanks to the authors for reviewing & presenting smart, environmentally friendly turfgrass management. @Cornell_Turf @nysipm @Carl_Schimenti @FrankSpeaks3

[Tyler Carr @TylerTalksTurf]

Turfgrasses can thrive under reduced inputs from mowing, fertilizer, pesticides, and water.

Improvements in low-input practices and cultivars have led to high quality turf while reducing environmental impact.

Overcoming barriers to adoption can lead to greater implementation.

How cool is this?

[Cornell University @Cornell]

Genomic sequencing revealed that populations of wasps that recognized each other's faces – and cooperated more – showed recent adaptations in areas of the genome associated with cognitive abilities such as learning, memory and vision.

@Carl_Schimenti Pretty easy to see when it's your day home with a sick kid Carl, your posts turn from turf to toddler toys--but always collecting data!

[Jennifer Grant @IPM_jag]

Golf courses use the Environmental Impact Quotient #EIQ to estimate risk. Learn how at seminar taught by Dr. Bruce Clarke and me Thursday at MetGCSAA
https://t.co/W8XRCSGgXN
For more about the EIQ overall, join NYS IPM program's online symposium on Nov. 29 @cornell_turf @nysipm

[Diana Obregon Ph.D. @dianaobregonc]

The Environmental Impact Quotient (EIQ) is a tool to estimate pesticide risk for humans and non-target organisms. If you want to learn more about it, join us for a virtual symposium on Nov 29th. Multiple companies are going to show how they use the tool. https://t.co/MkdYnLTdsH
