Resource Spotlight: 2024-2025 New York and New England Management Guidelines for Greenhouse Floriculture and Herbaceous Ornamentals
One of the most used resources for pest management across the
floriculture industry has a new face this year!
The former New England Floriculture Guide has joined forces with Cornell
University to become a jointly-authored publication, the 2024-2025
New York and New England Management Guidelines for Greenhouse Floriculture and
Herbaceous Ornamentals. Click the link above to purchase an online or
printed copy for $43.50 each, or $61.00 if purchased together.
Whether you have used the guide for years or are learning
about it for the first time – you will find comprehensive pest management information
for insects, mites, diseases, weeds, plant growth regulators, algae, and more. Users
outside of New York and the New England area will want to ensure that pest management
products and rates listed are labeled for use in their state. This new
publication also provides contact information for industry experts, diagnostic
services, testing services, as well as regulatory agencies.
Remember, growers can access a free online copy of the 2020-2021
edition of the New England Floriculture Guide here: http://negfg.uconn.edu/.
