Project Methods
1) Development and Adoption of IPM 1. Enhance development and adoption of regional IPM solutions and strategically promote national outcomes for priority pest management issues. 2. Promote the overarching National IPM Roadmap goals: (1) improve cost benefit analyses when IPM practices are adopted, (2) reduce potential human health risks from pests and related management strategies, and (3) minimize adverse environmental impacts from pests and related management strategies as described in the National IPM Roadmap (2013) (http://www.ipmcenters.org/Docs/IPMRoadMap.pdf)2) Intra-Regional IPM Collaboration and Cooperation 1. Enhance intra-regional IPM collaboration and cooperation to achieve outcomes identified by the CPPM program. 2. Support the development and implementation of IPM on regional and national priorities by facilitating collaboration across states, disciplines, research and extension communities, commodities, and settings. 3. Increase coordination of IPM research, education and extension efforts and respond to critical, high-priority IPM needs by serving as regional focal points for core regional IPM support services, regional pest management information networks, collaborative team building, and broad-based stakeholder participation. 4. Coordinate with the Regional Association of State Agricultural Experiment Station Directors and the Regional Extension Directors Association. 5. Engage fully with the regional Hatch Multistate IPM Education/Extension and Research Activity committees (currently labeled NEERA1004, NCERA222, SERA003, and WERA1017. See the National Information Management and Support System (NIMSS) - www.nimss.org) to facilitate and obtain regional priority IPM outcomes. 6. Engage fully with appropriate regional Hatch Multistate Research Committees to facilitate and obtain regional priority IPM outcomes. 7. Coordinate actively with and provide assistance to the Project Directors (PDs) within the region who receive awards from the other two CPPM program areas (ARDP and EIP). NIFA intends to inform each funded regional IPM center of the awards made to PDs in their region under the CPPM program. NIFA expects these PDs to collaborate and coordinate with their respective regional IPM center, and with the other regional IPM centers when appropriate, to more efficiently and effectively leverage regional resources needed to facilitate and reach significant regional and national IPM outcomes. 8. Engage with and support the respective regional Sustainable Agricultural Research and extension (SARE) program and IR-4 program to further mutual IPM goals.3) Inter-Regional IPM Collaboration and Cooperation 1. Enhance inter-regional collaboration and cooperation to ensure efficient use of resources, to take advantage of the unique strengths and priorities of each region and regional IPM center, and facilitate and obtain regional and national priority IPM outcomes. 2. Participate in national coordination meetings with representatives from regional IPM research and extension committees, IPM-related programs and government agencies to harmonize regional needs and activities into a comprehensive, nationally coordinated program. 3. Support IPM projects that may require inter-regional collaboration. Examples are the development of national pest management strategic plans, crop profiles, national pest alerts, contributions to internet and database resources, evaluations of the impacts of IPM implementation on a regional and national scale, support of the Pest Information Platform for Extension and Education (ipmPIPE), IPM signature food security programs of national scope (see 6 below), or IPM priorities that span regional boundaries.4) IPM Information Networks 1. Establish and maintain multi-state information networks designed to provide pest managers, regulatory agencies, and policy makers with the information they need to make science-based decisions and to provide interactive communication and exchange of information among IPM practitioners, researchers and extension specialists, government agencies, and other program stakeholders. 2. Engage with Extension IPM programs and other IPM-related programs and experts operating at the national, regional, state and local levels. 3. Develop the capacity through the IPM information network to review science and regulatory documents related to IPM and to share current pest management information with pest managers and other stakeholders. 5) IPM Partnerships 1. Build partnerships to address IPM challenges and opportunities. 2. Establish broad-based stakeholder advisory and steering committees to provide an opportunity for research and extension experts, IPM practitioners and other stakeholders to identify and prioritize pest management needs, challenges and opportunities in the region. 3. Maintain a website listing of current, regional IPM priorities obtained from IPM stakeholders and, as appropriate, engage stakeholders in a regional process to identify and prioritize IPM needs, focus center resources and programs on the identified priorities, and share regional IPM priorities with NIFA annually. 4. Use input from a wide variety of other sources in the IPM needs prioritization process such as research and extension faculty including the state Extension IPM coordinators, multistate research and extension committees that address pest management issues, members of IPM-related eXtension Communities of Practice, commodity associations and other groups representing end-users, and public interest groups. 5. Work in partnership with appropriate government agencies, private sector organizations and academic institutions on opportunities for interagency cooperation and shared funding of priority projects.6) IPM Signature Food Security Programs 1. Develop IPM signature food security programs and foster their sustainability through regional IPM center leadership. IPM signature food security programs promote collaboration across state and organizational boundaries to respond to high priority IPM challenges such as invasive species, endangered species, pest resistance, impacts resulting from regulatory actions affecting pest management practices, emerging pests or IPM issues, or other CPPM program priorities. 2. Provide support for key management tools that help foster food security including the Pest Information Platform for Extension and Education (iPIPE, see www.ipipe.org/) and other high priorities for IPM programs relevant to food security by bringing together needed expertise and organizations, identifying resources, and communicating plans and priorities to appropriate audiences. 3. Directly respond, when appropriate, to a high priority IPM challenge by methods such as organizing workshops and training programs, developing Pest Alerts, or facilitating further development of IPM tools.7) Evaluation of IPM Implementation 1. Incorporate assessment and evaluation into IPM center programs to document the impacts and outcomes of IPM research and extension efforts throughout the region, including the aggregation and synthesis of existing information and the generation of new information. 2. Review and evaluate impacts of IPM implementation. 3. Collaborate with the other regional IPM centers to standardize evaluation metrics. 4. Communicate outcomes and success stories to key stakeholders, funding organizations and policy makers.

Outputs
Target Audience:Our target audience was very broad and diverse with core interactions with the following groups that served as our network to further disseminate information to their stakeholders: Land-grant institutions (1862, 1890 and 1994) within the North Central region as well as multi-regional programming based on project needs. NCERA-222 IPM coordinators, NCIPMC-funded working groups, Hatch Multi-State committees, Tribal Nations, the NCIPMC Advisory Committee and Steering Committee, NGOs and non-profit organizations, and regional and national pest management agencies, organizations and programs. During this grant period, there were over 800 individual members for the working groups, some are members of more than one working group. There were over 300 different affiliations (including over 70 different colleges and universities, Native American tribes and colleges, and 2 are HBCUs) and 47 states were represented along with 5 countries. In 2022 alone, the working groups reached over 28,000 additional people with their products and educational presentations. During the last year of the grant, 34 students were part of the North Central IPM Center programs, mostly through working groups. During the first year of the grant, 11, 704 people were reached; second year - 14,398; third year - 28,725; and last year - 164,580 people were reached through the NC IPM Center's efforts. Working Groups that were funded during the funding cycle were: Field Crops Extension; Public Tick IPM; Organic and IPM; Public Gardens as Sentinels against Invasive Plants; Great Lakes Urban Ag; Sunflower Pathology; Pulse Crop; Midwest Grows Green Lawn and Land Forum; IPM4Bees; Midwest Fruit; Great Lakes Hop; Great Lakes Vegetable; Great Lakes Ag and Wildlife Co-Existence; North Central Nursery IPM; Managed Pollinator Protection Plans; Hemp IPM; Alfalfa; Pollinator Education & Action For Youth; War Against Weeds Podcast; Rights-of-Way as Habitat; Building Continuity across State Invasive Lists; Extending Reach with a Pest Alert Network; and North Central School IPM. Many of the working groups were funded multiple years. Their target audiences are specialists, county agents, growers, government agencies, non-profits, legislators, school employees, urban gardeners, general public, bee keepers, Rights-of-Way companies and agencies, arboretum and public gardens, and many others. Each working group collaborates and networks to help solve problems affecting their area of expertise. Products produced include webinars, podcasts, educational bulletins and cards, curricula for teachers and others, databases to store information that others can use across the country to reduce duplication of effort, and many others. Changes/Problems: Nothing Reported What opportunities for training and professional development has the project provided?Many of our training and professional development efforts are listed under products as outputs from our working groups and critical issues projects. For the 10th International IPM Symposium, the NCIPMC supported 29 students from the region to attend. This provided students with the unique opportunity to learn about other disciplines in IPM and to participate in the judged poster session. Working Groups that have met in person for annual meetings over the past 5 years have provided an opportunity for specialists and students to present on their research and extension work. These talks have trained others on what research is taking place, but also provides a place for students to get feedback on their work and to ask questions about how their research might be improved. The talks have given students a place to practice and hone their presentation methods. The Tick IPM Working Group held several Tick IPM Academies that have been used to train professionals and non-professionals on the correct identification of ticks, how to scout for them, protect themselves and others from tick bites and how to control ticks. These workshops have been open to all states in the U.S. Many of the Working Groups have membership from many of the states, Canada, and other countries, allowing them to learn from each other. Tick IPM Working Group held Tick Academy Pollinator Education and Action for Youth Working Group trained 85 educators (K-12 teachers, master gardeners, 4H youth educators, and other extension specialists) in 12 training sessions in Iowa, Nebraska, Illinois, Wisconsin, Tennessee, and Ohio. Educators received a kit of materials with supplies for implementing the hands-on lesson activities. School IPM Working Group - established the Pest Defense for Heathy Schools as a central hub of info. 79 individuals completed at least one module. Held a virtual workshop in Pennsylvania with 20 attendees. Piloted Kids in Action (KIA) for 7 students at Wolcott College Prep in Chicago. Hosted 3 in-person workshops for Milwaukee Public Schools for food service staff, custodians and landscape and ground maintenance. Midwest Grows Green Lawn and Land Forum Working Group - hosted two webinars and one in-person workshop - 21 attended - implement a greenspace management or restoration project that transitions away from synthetic pesticides and fertilizers. Hosted Sustainable Landscaping Workshop - 33 attendees. Managed Pollinator Protection Plans Working Group - launched the Pollinator Protection Plan for Land Managers online course. Video of the Spanish version of Getting Tough on Pests and Going Soft on Pollinators. Pollinator Protection for Pesticide Applicators online course - 138 people reached. IPM4Bees Working Group - hosted 5 online seminars - 14 people at each presentation. Topics were Spanish outreach, honeybee programming for veterinarians, developing master beekeeper programs and extension focused on encouraging IPM practices. How have the results been disseminated to communities of interest?We disseminated results from this grant with our communities of interest through our interactive information networks that cross traditional, institutional, disciplinary, programmatic, and geographic boundaries to address regional IPM priorities, as well as novel approaches to improve communication and to develop and share educational information with new partners. Our information networks include our state IPM coordinator contacts who assist with regulator questions from EPA and the Office of Pest Management Policy, the NICPMC competitively funded working groups and critical issues grants, a Hatch Multi-State Committee (NCERA-222) and Advisory/Steering Committee, who receive our information from our newsletter, our NCIPMC website and our twitter feed in addition to oral and written updates and communications from the NCIPMC staff. Information is also disseminated through the Pest Alert series and the outputs from all the Working Groups to their clientele. 482 products were produced during the finding cycle including: websites, conference papers and presentations, journal articles, other news outlets, books and book chapters, podcasts, plus videos and YouTube products, etc. We held 29 webinars in a series called Pests and Progress for PIs of ARDP, EIP grantees, along with working group and critical issues grantees to report on their grants. The recorded webinars are available on the NC IPMC Center YouTube channel. We hosted booths at several professional meetings to let others know what the NCIPMC does and how our work on IPM has impacted others. Many of the working groups have their own website where they disseminate their research and educational materials. Some examples are below: Tick IPM Working Group - in 2022 the working group worked with Indian Health services' Bemidji Area Office (BAO) that oversees tick surveillance and management for 34 federally recognized tribes across the NC region. Held 10 webinars this year. Webinar attendance increased from 19 in 2019 to 40 in 2022. Secured sponsorships for the Tick Academy. Pollinator Education and Action for Youth Working Group - Trained 85 educators on using pollinator lesson plans and hands-on experience with some of the lessons - 27 curriculum lessons. 29 educators planned to teach the curriculum lessons to 13,763 student-classes/programs. School IPM Working Group - Pest Defense sends monthly newsletter to 3,234 people. Pest Defense website hosted 2,558 sessions and 2,116 unique users. Pest Defense has reached an international audience. 81 new registrants worked internationally - France, Brazil, Denmark, Canada, Austria, Poland, Netherlands, Norway, Switzerland, Germany, Iceland, Great Britain, Australia, Belgium. Public Gardens as Sentinels against Invasive Plants Working Group - newsletter to over 150 people. Five webinars held - 42 garden representatives attended. 22 follow-up meetings held with gardens.

Impacts
What was accomplished under these goals? Personnel for the NCIPMC included Lynnae Jess, Laura Iles, Daren Mueller as directors, and Jacque Pohl as communication specialist. NC IPM Center website: According to Google Analytics, the website totaled between 15,391 to 28,670 pageviews over the length of the grant, and users went from 8,886 to 14,206. Pest Alerts are produced by the NC IPM Center with authors from around the country. Downloads from our website have ranged from 5,421 to 8,131 per year. Paper copies have also been requested and filled by the NCIPMC. Pest Alerts are reviewed and updated, as needed, every 2 years. New Pest Alerts produced during this grant included: Asian Longhorned Tick, Coffee Leaf Rust, Bagrada Bug, Brown Marmorated Stink Bug, Pink Hibiscus Mealybug, Tick & Tick-Borne Diseases, Western Bean Cutworm, Blueberry Scorch Virus, and Blueberry Shock Virus. Connections online 'blog' was used for items that needed to get out quickly. Page views ranged around 3,050. Our monthly newsletter - the Central Issue - aggregates news from the region, and USDA NIFA and pushes these articles and critical stories to stakeholders. The newsletter serves as our primary mode of promotion of official NCIPMC announcements and news, and subscriber numbers went from 773 to 1,471. The NCIPMC Twitter account has 750 followers and the NCIPMC YouTube channel has gone from 16 to 53 subscribers and views have gone from 187 to 4,148 over the life of the grant. 2. Management process and structure of NCIPMC Advisory Committee and Steering Committee - there were 14 members on the Advisory Committee with 6 of those members serving also on the Steering Committee. The Committee met in-person in 2019, virtually in 2020 and 2021 and in-person in 2022. Working Groups - In year 1, 13 working groups and two Critical Issues grants were funded. The WGs had 432 members. WGs create a powerful network of partners representing diverse interests working towards the same goals. Year 2, 11 Working Groups and three Critical Issues grants were funded, with 622 members. Year 3, 11 Working Groups and two Critical Issues grants were funded. WGs had 835 members. Year 4, 11 Working Groups and three Critical Issues grants were funded. WGs had over 835 members. Working Group membership covered over 299 affiliations, including over 75 colleges and universities, 47 states, 7 Canadian provinces, England, Australia, Philippines, and Hungary. During this time there was an Emergency working group established at the request of NIFA - the Herbicide-Drift Risk Management WG. This group was funded two years and produced an Herbicide Drift Survey, and 5 Dicamba and 2,4-D Drift Issues fact sheets. In year 4, WGs applied for $8,294,339 in grants. Working Groups are great examples of bringing people together to network and collaborate on special needs in their area of expertise. During the no-cost extension year, the NCIPMC was able to provide supplemental funds to 5 Working Groups to expand their work, along with one Critical Issues project. 3. Information Networks NCERA-222 - NCIPMC helps with the annual NCERA-222 meeting by obtaining the meeting space and food. This group is used to help respond to information requests from EPA/OPMP. Regional activities - Working Groups use Basecamp, or listservs, to keep their members up to date. NCIPMC is sponsoring 42 Basecamp groups. These listservs are used by many working groups to help solve grower problems in the field. If a grower asks the member what something is, the member posts it to the listserv/Basecamp group and others respond with possible identification and solutions. This saves time for the member and for the grower since a quick answer is usually obtained. It saves growers money since they can control the problem faster. Many members are experts in different areas, so the working groups are able to combine their expertise to help growers. IR-4, SARE, and PSEP - participated in regional and national IR-4 meetings and priority setting. SARE rep is on our Advisory Committee. Work has been done with PSEP including attending their national meeting held in Denver. The Managed Pollinator Protection Plans working group has produced an educational module to help pesticide applicators mitigate pollinator exposure. They also produced cards: Protect Pollinators - read Pesticide Labels NCRA and NC Extension Association directors - NCIPMC worked with leaders on NCERA-222, Herbicide Drift-Risk Management Working Group, PSEP and EIP program reporting. At the request of NIFA, the NCIPMC met with NCRA and NC Extension Association Directors to learn if the Herbicide Drift-Risk Management WG was needed. It was a concern of the states in the North Central Region and a working group was formed and led by Ohio State University. A survey was conducted to understand growers' knowledge about drift and to see how much damage specialty crop growers had seen. PDs of ARDP projects - to meet the NIFA requirement of providing opportunities for PDs to present their final reports, the webinar series Pests and Progress was initiated. Each webinar is 30 minutes in length and is held the third Wednesday of the month. The recorded webinars can be viewed on the NCIPMC YouTube channel. There are 56 subscribers to the channel and 29 webinars were produced during this granting period. Signature Programs Invasive Species and Re-Emerging Pests - worked closely with the other 3 Centers on this. The NCIPMC funded the Public Gardens as Sentinels Against Invasive Plants Working Group, and Building Continuity Across State Invasive Lists Working Group. Critical Issues grants were funded on Spotted Wing Drosophila, Spotted Lanternfly, Asian Longhorned tick, and Soybean Gall Midge. Pest Resistance Management - the Herbicide Drift-Risk Management Working Group was funded. Critical Issues grants worked on Palmer Amaranth and Waterhemp in Alfalfa, Developing Molecular Tools to Increase Throughput and Accuracy of Herbicides, Soybean Cyst Nematode Resistance Management, and Certified Crop Advisor Perspectives and Practices Regarding Pest Resistance. Pollinator and Monarch Conservation - Four working groups work in this area: IPM4Bees, Managed Pollinator Protection Plans, Rights-of-Way as Habitat, and Pollinator Education and Action for Youth. Advanced Genetic Tools and IPM - Context, our evaluation group, surveyed industry and specialists to see what if understood and what educational efforts are needed.

Progress 09/01/21 to 08/31/22

Outputs
Target Audience:Our target audience is very broad and diverse with core interactions with the following groups that serve as our network to further disseminate information to their stakeholders: Land-grant institutions (1862, 1890 and 1994) within the North Central region as well as multi-regional programming based on project needs. NCERA-222 IPM coordinators, NCIPMC-funded working groups, Hatch Multi-State committees, Tribal Nations, the NCIPMC Advisory Committee and Steering Committee, NGOs and non-profit organizations, and regional and national pest management agencies, organizations, and programs. Changes/Problems:We will request a one-year no-cost extension for this grant. Travel funds have not been utilized due to Covid-19 restrictions on travel and meeting in person. What opportunities for training and professional development has the project provided?Many of our training and professional development efforts are listed under preoducts as outputs from our working groups and critical issues projects. For the 10th International IPM Symposium, the NCIPMC supported 29 students from the region to attend. This provided students with the unique opportunity to learn about other disciplines in IPM and to participate in the judged poster session. How have the results been disseminated to communities of interest?We disseminated results from this grant with our communities of interest through our interactive information networks that cross traditional, institutional, disciplinary, programmatic, and geographic boundaries to address regional IPM priorities, as well as novel approaches to improve communication and to develop and share educational information with new partners. Our information networks include our state IPM coordinator contacts who assist with regulatory questions from EPA and the Office of Pest Management Policy, the NCIPMC competively funded working groups and Critical Issues grantees, a Hatch Multi- State Committee and Advisory Committee who receive our information from our newsletter, our NCIPMC website and our twitter feed in addition to oral and written updates and communications from the NCIPMC staff. Information is also disseminated through the Pest Alert series and the outputs from all the Working Groups to their clientele. This year we held monthly webinars in a series called Pests and Progress for PIs of ARDP and EIP programs to report on their grants. The recorded webinars are available on the NC IPM Center YouTube channel. What do you plan to do during the next reporting period to accomplish the goals?Next year will be our one-year no-cost extension year to finish out the projects we have started. 1. Management proces and structure of NCIPMC Advisory Committee and Steering Committee - will meet in Kansas City in September. WG leads will give an update on their "One Big Thing" for their WG. The AC and SC will be given an overview of what the NCIPMC has done for the last four years and an overview of the new grant and what work is proposed. Involving other stakeholders and partner institutions Working Groups and Critical Issues grant programs - the current grants that were funded to start March 1, 2022 will continue until February 28, 2023. All work will be completed by that date. NCERA-222 - the NCIPMC has set up the hotel for the annual meeting to be held March 2023 in Columbus, Ohio.

Grants Management - 90% • An external peer review panel was used to review 13 Working Group proposals and 4 Critical Issues proposals. A primary goal of the NC IPM Center funding is to increase IPM research and adoption in our region. One way we measure this success is by the outputs of our grant recipients: • 88 publications were produced covering subjects ranging from tick management, hop production, and using public gardens as sentinels against invasive plants. • Funded groups also produced webinars, podcasts, videos, and presentations reaching 27,931 people. • Over $1.56 million dollars in grant funding was applied for and over $1.46 million dollars were received that will support research, extension and implementation of IPM in hop, sunflower, chickpeas, lentils, and more. • Supporting the next generation of IPM educators and researchers is critical and as a direct result of our funding 20 undergraduate and graduate students participated in IPM research.

Progress 09/01/20 to 08/31/21

Outputs
Target Audience:Our target audience is very broad and diverse with core interactions with the following groups that serve as our network to further disseminate information to their stakeholders: Land-grant institutions (1862, 1890 and 1994) within the North Central region as well as multi-regional programming based on project needs. NCERA-222 IPM coordinators, NCIPMC-funded working groups, Hatch Multi-State committees, Tribal Nations, the NCIPMC Advisory Committee and Steering Committee, NGOs and non-profit organizations, and regional and national pest management agencies, organizations, and programs. Changes/Problems: Nothing Reported What opportunities for training and professional development has the project provided?Many of our training and professional development efforts are listed under products as outputs from our working groups and critical issues projects. How have the results been disseminated to communities of interest?We disseminated results from this grant with our communities of interest through our interactive information networks that cross traditional, institutional, disciplinary, programmatic, and geographic boundaries to address regional IPM priorities, as well as novel approaches to improve communication and to develop and share educational information with new partners. Our information networks include our state IPM coordinator contacts who assist with regulatory questions from EPA and the Office of Pest Management Policy, the NCIPMC competively funded working groups and Critical Issues grantees, a Hatch Multi- State Committee and Advisory Committee who receive our information from our newsletter, our NCIPMC website and our twitter feed in addition to oral and written updates and communications from the NCIPMC staff. Information is also disseminated through the Pest Alert series and the outputs from all the Working Groups to their clientele. What do you plan to do during the next reporting period to accomplish the goals? Management process and structure of NCIPMC Advisory Committee and Steering Committee - Will meet in Kansas City in September. If travel is still not allowed, a virtual meeting will take place. WG leaders will give an update on their "One Big Thing" for their WG. The AC and SC will form priorities for the NCIPMC, look at the Mission Statement and Goals for the Center and make recommendations for the future. The SC will meet to finalize priorities, look at the Signature Programs, the budget and other items to give NCIPMC personnel feedback on the direction of the Center. Involving other stakeholders and partner institutions Working Groups and Critical Issues grant programs- $200,000 will be set aside to fund working groups for the coming year. WGs can apply for up to $20,000. $100,000 will be set aside for the Critical Issues grants. Critical Issues proposals can request up to $50,000 each. NCERA-222 - the NCIPMC will set up the hotel for the annual meeting to be held at the 10th International IPM Symposium, Feb 28-Mar 3, 2022, in Denver, CO. Underserved audiences - NCIPMC will continue to look for ways to work with underserved audiences. A member of a Tribal Nation is a member of the AC and SC. Will continue to work with other 1890 and 1994 institutions, as needed. There are two members on the NCERA-222 group representing the two 1890 institutions in our region. Other Regional IPM Centers - Will continue to partner with the other IPM Centers on the Invasive Species and Re-emerging Pests Signature Program. Center personnel will serve on review panels as needed. Will continue to meet monthly via Zoom or in person twice a year. Identifying program needs and establishing priorities - The NCIPMC will meet with the Advisory Committee and the Steering Committee in September 2021 to review and establish priorities. Working Groups, NCERA-222 and other groups will be asked to submit priorities in the IPM area. Strategic planning process - The NCIPMC will meet with the Advisory Committee and Steering Committee in Sept 2021 to make sure we are on the right track to achieve the goals of the Center. Context will be used to help us determine if we are working in the right areas to have the biggest impact. Methods to establish and maintain interactive information networks NCERA-222 - The NCIPMC uses these individuals to respond to information requests from EPA/OPMP. We are working with OPMP to streamline this process. Regional Pest Management Activities - We will work with multi-state committees as needed. Will work with authors on producing regional and national Pest Alerts. Will work with groups to produce/revise Crop Profiles and PMSPs. IR-4 and SARE - NCIPMC will continue to participate in regional and national IR-4 meetings and the priority setting process. A SARE representative is on our Advisory Committee. Personnel from IR-4 were invited to be on the Advisory Committee, but they declined. NCRA and NC Extension Association directors - NCIPMC personnel will continue to stay in touch with leaders of both these groups working on NCERA-222, EIP program reporting, and other issues as they arise. PDs of ARDP projects - We are starting a webinar series that will take place the third Wednesday of each month for half an hour for PDs to present their work. Signature Programs - Invasive Species and Re-Emerging Pests - work with the other 3 IPM Centers on this program. The NCIPMC funded a working group, Public Gardens as Sentinels Against Invasive Plants working in this area. A new working group - Building Continuity Across State Invasive Lists: Sharing Scientific Resources will start March 2, 1021. Will continue to work with NPDN. Pest Resistance Management - will continue to work with the Herbicide Drift Risk Management Working Group. Another new working group was funded in this area - War Against Weeds Podcast - Exploring Strategies to Communicate integrated Weed Management Principles to Mitigate Herbicide Resistance. Pollinator and Monarch Conservation -The IPM4Bees working group and the Managed Pollinator Protection Plans working group were funded for another year. We funded a new working group - Pollinator Education and Action for Youth. A previous working group for RIghts-of-Way companies was funded again this year. Advanced Genetic Tools and IPM - We will continue to work with the Herbicide Drift Risk Management Working Group to address issues caused by dicamba and 2,4-D resistant GMOs. Evaluation Efforts NCIPMC will continue working with Context to provide evaluation services. Context personnel will attend the AC and SC meeting to work on evaluation and future work of the Center. Grants Management The Grants Management System will be used to have PIs submit their proposals. An external peer review panel will review Working Group proposals and Critical Issues proposals. The NCIPMC will make all final funding decisions based on the rankings of the proposals by the review panel.

Impacts
What was accomplished under these goals? Personnel - 100% complete Personnel include Lynnae Jess, Laura Iles, and Daren Mueller as directors, and Jacque Pohl as communication specialist. NC IPM Center website: According to Google Analytics, the website totaled 22,847 pageviews, 13,271 visits, and 10,869 users. While the homepage is the most popular individual page (4,614 pageviews) during this time period, the grants page (1,272 pageviews) and pest alerts pages (7,183 pageviews--all alerts combined) are also relevant and useful. We continue to produce Pest Alerts (6,971 downloads since 6/1/2020), or they can be ordered as print copies. A new Pest Alert - Asian Longhorned Tick - has been published. Pest Alerts are reviewed and updated, if needed, every 2 years. Pest Alerts are also available as web page files to ensure digital accessibility compliance, as well as to increase usability on mobile devices. The Connections online 'blog' is used for items that need to get out quickly (3,050 pageviews from 6/01/2020 - 5/24/2021). Our monthly newsletter - the Central Issue - aggregates news from the region, and USDA NIFA and pushes these articles and critical stories to stakeholders. The newsletter serves as our primary mode of promotion of official NCIPMC announcements and news, and has 773 subscribers. The newsletter has an average open rate of 27.1 percent, and an average click rate of 6.5 percent. Management process and structure of NCIPMC Advisory Committee and Steering Committee - 100% There are fourteen members on the Advisory Committee. Six of the 14 Advisory Committee members are on the Steering Committee. The Advisory and Steering Committee, along with the Working Group leaders, met virtually on 9/17/2020. The Working Groups gave a 5 minute "One Big Thing" presentation on what they have been working on for the past year. Context, our evaluation group, presented a summary of their focused evaluation of three Working Groups. Involving other stakeholders and partner institutions - 80% Working Groups - Just over $200,000 was provided to 11 working groups this year. An external peer review panel reviewed all proposals and ranked them from highest to lowest. The WGs started 3/1/2021. Six working groups are using a no-cost extension. The 2021 Working Groups have 622 members from 224 affiliations, 61 colleges and universities, 44 states, 7 Canadian provinces, England and Australia. NCERA-222 - the 2021 meeting was held virtually on 3/24/2021. The NCIPMC provided an update on our activities and Working Groups and Critical Issues Funding. Underserved audiences - the Great Lakes Urban Ag WG works with community gardens/urban ag to help underserved neighborhoods have access to fresh produce. Central State University, and LIncoln University have joined the NCERA-222 group. Both universities are 1890 Land Grant Institutions. Two individuals that identified their affiliation as a Native American entity are members of the Tick IPM working group. Other Regional IPM Centers - The NCIPMC led the Communications Specialists the past two years. We work with other IPM Centers on Invasive Species work, new grant management system, reporting system, and other projects as they come along. We meet monthly via Zoom. Identifying program needs and establishing priorities - 100% Priorities were established with the Advisory and Steering Committee and are available on our website. Applicants to our grants programs are encouraged to state how their project meets an NCIPMC priority. Strategic planning process - 80% The NCIPMC met with the Advisory Committee and Steering Committee in September 2020 to make sure we are on the right track to achieve the goals of the Center. Productive discussion took place on how Working Group funding, and other items pertinent to our Center. Methods to establish and maintain interactive information networks - 85% NCERA-222 - The NCIPMC uses these individuals to respond to information requests from EPA/OPMP. Regional Pest Management Activities - Directors are involved with several multi-state technical committees. Working groups use Basecamp, or other listservs, to keep members up to date. Basecamp or listservs are used to answer questions for growers on pests that are affecting their crops. This is a quick way for Extension personnel to get answers to help save crops. The NCIPMC sponsors 42 Basecamp groups. IR-4 and SARE - NCIPMC participated in the regional and national IR-4 meetings and priority setting process. A SARE representative is on our Advisory Committee. National Plant Diagnostic Network - one co-director represents the Regional IPM Centers on the NPDN Advisory Committee and serves on the Extension and Outreach Committee. NCRA and NC Extension Association directors - NCIPMC personnel have held several conversations with leaders working on NCERA-222, dicamba drift, Pesticide Safety Education programs, and EIP program reporting. PDs of ARDP projects - We have initiated a webinar series for PDs for ARDP and EIP to present their work. The webinar series will help promote IPM regionally and across the U.S. Signature Programs - 75% Invasive Species and Re-Emerging Pests - working with the other 3 Centers on this program. The NCIPMC continues to fund Public Gardens as Sentinels Against Invasive Plants. A new working group, "Building continuity across state invasive lists: Sharing scientific resources" was funded this year. We funded a Critical Issues proposal on the invasive insect Spotted Wing Drosophila. One of the directors serves on the BMSB Advisory Board for the national SCRI grant. The NCIPMC will continue to work the Pest Alerts. Pest Resistance Management - fund a Herbicide Drift Risk Management Working group to address the issues caused by dicamba and 2,4-D drift onto sensitive crops and plants. The working group has completed 5 fact sheets related to dicamba and 2,4-D drift and sensitive crops. NCIPMC completed a white paper at the request of the NIPMCC.. Pollinator and Monarch Conservation -The IPM4Bees working group has continued in creating multimedia outputs. The Managed Pollinator Protection Plans working group networks on state required pollinator protection plans, and has produced training modules for pesticide appllicators. A new working group will collaborate across the region to bring pollinator education to youth. Advanced Genetic Tools and IPM - Context, our evaluation group, surveyed people and specialists to see what is understood and what educational efforts are needed. Evaluation Efforts - 75% NCIPMC is working with Context to provide evaluation services. This year, Context worked with several of our Working Groups to provide success stories. The NCIPMC Working Groups continue to network and collaborate to help solve constiutent needs and problems. The NCIPMC granted two Critical Issues grants last year. Grants Management - 75% An external peer review panel was used to review 14 Working Group proposals and 9 Critical Issues proposals. The new grants management system was used for scoring and proposal submission. A primary goal of the NC IPM Center funding is to increase IPM research and adoption in our region. One way we measure this success is by the outputs of our grant recipients: 51 publications were produced covering subjects ranging from tick management, hop production, and using public gardens as sentinels against invasive plants. Funded groups also produced webinars, podcasts, videos, and presentations reaching 14,398 people. Over $3.7 million dollars in grant funding was applied for and over $3.5 million dollars were received that will support research, extension and implementation of IPM in hop, sunflower, chickpeas, lentils, and more. Supporting the next generation of IPM educators and researchers is critical and as a direct result of our funding 20 undergraduate and graduate students participated in IPM research.

Progress 09/01/19 to 08/31/20

Outputs
Target Audience:Our target audience is very broad and diverse with core interactions with the following groups that serve as our network to further disseminate information to their stakeholders: Land-grant institutions (1862, 1890 and 1994) within the North Central region as well as multi-regional programming based on project needs. NCERA-222 IPM coordinators, NCIPMC-funded working groups, Hatch Multi-State committees, Tribal Nations, the NCIPMC Advisory Committee and Steering Committee, NGOs and non-profit organizations, and regional and national pest management agencies, organizations, and programs. Changes/Problems: Nothing Reported What opportunities for training and professional development has the project provided?Many of our training and professional development efforts are listed under products as outputs from our working groups and critical issues projects. How have the results been disseminated to communities of interest?We disseminated results from this grant with our communities of interest through our interactive information networks that cross traditional, institutional, disciplinary, programmatic, and geographic boundaries to address regional IPM priorities, as well as novel approaches to improve communication and to develop and share educational information with new partners. Our information networks include our state IPM coordinator contacts who assist with regulatory questions from EPA and the Office of Pest Management Policy, the NCIPMC competively funded working groups adn Critical Issues grantees, a Hatch Multi-State Committee and Advisory Committee who receive our information from our newsletter, our NCIPMC website and our twitter feed in addition to oral and written updates and communications from the NCIPMC staff. Information is also disseminated through the Pest Alert series and the outputs from all the Working Groups to their clientele. What do you plan to do during the next reporting period to accomplish the goals?Plan of Work for Next Reporting Period: 1. Management process and structure of NCIPMC Advisory Committee and Steering Committee - The two groups are scheduled to meet Sept 16-17 in Kansas City, MO. WG leaders will attend the first day and give an update on their "One Big Thing" for their WG. This will allow the AC and SC to hear what work is being done by these groups, and to see if any changes are needed in the process we are using. The AC and SC will meet on the second morning together to form priorities for the NCIPMC, look at the Mission Statement and Goals for the Center and make recommendations for the future. The SC will meet the second afternoon to finalize priorities, look at the Signature Programs, the budget and other items to give NCIPMC personnel feedback on the direction of the Center. Involving other stakeholders and partner institutions - Working Groups and Critical Issues grant programs - $200,000 will be set aside to fund working groups for the coming year. WGs will be allowed to apply for up to $20,000. $100,000 will be set aside for the Critical Issues grants. Critical Issues proposals can request up to $50,000 each. NCERA-222 - the NCIPMC will help set up the hotel for the annual meeting to be held in conjunction with the 10th International IPM Symposium that will be held March 15 in Denver, CO. The Center pays for meals and the meeting room, and helps with the agenda, etc. Underserved audiences - NCIPMC will continue to look for ways to work with underserved audiences. A member of a Tribal Nation is on our AC and SC. That person will help us determine what many be needed. Will continue to work with other 1890 and 1994 institutions, as needed. Other Regional IPM Centers - WIll continue to partner with the other IPM Centers on the Invasive Species and Re-emerging Pests Signature Program. Center personnel will serve on review panels as needed. Will continue to meet monthly via Zoom or in person twice a year. Identifying program needs and establishing priotities - The NCIPMC will meet with the Advisory Committee and the Steering Committee in Sept 2020 to review and establish priorities. Workinig Groups, NCERA-222 and other groups will be asked to submit priorities in the IPM area. Strategic planning process - The NCIPMC will meet with the Advisory and Steering Committee to make sure we are on the right track to achieve the goals of the Center. Context will be used to help us determine if we are working in the right areas to have the biggest impact. 2. Methods to establish and maintain interactive information networks NCERA-222 - the NCIPMC uses these individuals to respond to information requests from EPA/OPMP. We will continue to send EPA/OPMP requests out via Basecamp and ask that they send the requests to the appropriate people in their state and then return the responses to us for collation and submission to EPA/OPMP. Regional Pest Management Activities - We will continue to work with multi-state committees as needed. Will work with authors on producing regional and national Pest Alerts. Will work with commodities/specialists in the region to produce/revise Crop Profiles and PSMPs. IR-4 and SARE - NCIPMC will continue to participate in regional and national IR-4 meetings and the priority setting process. A SARE representative is on our Advisory Committee. Personnel from IR-4 were invited to serve on the Advisory Committee, but they declined. NCRA and NC Extension Association directors - NCIPMC personnel will continue to stay in touch with leaders of both groups working on NCERA-222, herbicide drift, EIP program reporting, and other issues as they arise. PDs of ARDP projects - Continue to work with the PDs on the best place to present their work. SIgnature Programs - Invasive Species and Re-Emerging Pests - work with the other three IPM Centers on this program. Serve on the Invasive Species subcommittee for the regions. The NCIPMC funded a working group that is working in this area. Will continue to work with NPDN as needed, and will continue the Pest Alert program. Pest Resistance Management - will continue to work with the Herbicide Drift Risk Management Working Group to address the issues casued by dicamba and other herbicides. Meeting with the Iowa Pest Resistance Management program and providing them IPM support. Pollinator and Monarch Conservation - The IPM4Bees working group was funded for another year. They will continue working on pollinator research and outreach. We will work closely with the newly funded Managed Pollinator Protection Plans Working Group. Advanced Genetic Tools and IPM - We will continue to work with the Herbicide Drift Risk Management WG to address issues caused by dicamba and 2,4-D resistant GMOs. Context will be working on a needs assessment in the region to determine what work is needed to inform extension agents, growers, and other stakeholders about new technologies such as CRISPR. 3. Evaluation Efforts NCIPMC will continue working with Context to provide evaluation services. Context personnel will attend the AC and SC meeting to work on evaluation and future work of the Center. We will continue to work closely with Context to evaluate our efforts and to produce impact statements. 4. Grants Management The Grants Management System will be used to have PDs submit their proposals for Working Groups and Critical Issues. We will work closely with the other regional IPM Centers to coordinate candidates for review panels so people aren't asked by multiple Centers. An external peer review panel will review Working Group and Critical Issues proposals. Reviewers will use the new grants management system to submit their scores and their final reviews. The NCIPMC will make all final funding decisions based on the rankings of the proposals by the review panel. We will continue to coordinate with the other Centers on reporting requirements through the Grants Management System.

Progress 09/01/18 to 08/31/19

Outputs
Target Audience:Our target audience is very broad and diverse with core interactions with the following groups that serve as our network to further disseminate information to their stakeholders: Land-grant institutions (1862, 1890 and 1994) within the North Central region as well as multi-regional programming based on project needs. NCERA-222 IPM coordinators, NCIPMC-funded working groups, Hatch Multi-State committees, Tribal Nations, the NCIPMC Advisory Panel, NGOs and non-profit organizations, and regional and national pest management agencies, organizations, and programs. Changes/Problems: Nothing Reported What opportunities for training and professional development has the project provided?ISU personnel attended the Emerging Leaders Academy. Gave presentations at the North American Invasive Species Management Association National Meeting held in Rocherster, MN. Many of our trainings and professional development efforts are listed under products as outputs from our working groups and critical issues projects. How have the results been disseminated to communities of interest?We disseminated results from this grant with our communities of interest through our interactive information networks that cross traditional, institutional, disciplinary, programmatic, and geogratphic boundaries to address regional IPM priorities, as well as novel approaches to improve communicatin and to develop and share educational informaton with new partners. Our information networks include our state IPM coordinator contacts who assist with regulatory questions from EPA and the Office of Pest Management Policy, the NCIPMC competitively funded working groups, a Hatch Multi-State Comittee and Advisory Panel who receive our information from our newsletter, our NCIPMC website and our twitter feed in addition to oral and written updates and communications from the NCIPMC staff. What do you plan to do during the next reporting period to accomplish the goals?Continue to fund working groups and critical issues grants. Will share knowledge through the Central Issue newsletter which contains articles promoting work that matches Signature Programs, highlighting the efforts of those working to develop, create and implement pest management strategies. Also a place to promote networking in the region by advertising regional evetns. Promote the successes of our working groups. In the future will be the vehicle to promote success stories of the NCIPMC. Currently launchinng an evaluation tool with our evaluators, Context, who will conduct follow up interviews in order to assess Center acitivities and impacts. Will continue working with NCERA-222, other mulit-state Hatch committees, OPMP and EPA, to gather information on pest management issues. With partner with SARE and IR-4. Will work closely with the Advisory Panel and Steering Committee to ensure our activities are meeting the NCIPMC goals, our Signature Programs reflect priorities of the region, evaluating the efficacy of the programs, and that funds are being spent appropriately.

Impacts
What was accomplished under these goals? The NCIPMC supports our major goals by funding working groups and critical issues grants, in addition to facilitation by NCIPMC personnel of collaboration and coordination of projects. Many of the NCIPMC projects and working groups are multi-regional, national or international in scope demonstrating the reach of the NCIPMC's collaborative efforts. Our working groups (currently 13) have 432 members that create a powerful network of partners representing diverse interests working towards the same goals. To share knowledge with our colleagues and stakeholders we produce a monthly newsletter (The Central Issue) with ~1,000 subscribers. A Connections is on-line blogthat provides job postings, beneficial announcements such as grant opportunities, etc. Each year an Advisory Panel meeting is held to share the achievements of the NCIPMC and our working groups. In addition, several groups provide updates with the panel on their IPM activities. The NCIPMC continues to have a strong partnership with the NCERA-222 group and attend their annual meeting to share NCIPMC information and learn of priroties of the NCERA-222.
