What was accomplished under these goals?
Mississippi (MS) stakeholders require assistance with identification (ID) of various pest issues and theirmanagement. Stakeholders increase their knowledge in these areas through individual assistance from specialists and fromeducational resources and events created and delivered by specialists. As a result, they become more knowledgeable of pestissues, can more easily recognize those issues, and are better prepared to effectively manage those issues. This change inknowledge leads to reduced pest issues, quicker implementation and use of more effective management methods, improvedsuccess in production, and decreased costs. The accomplishments below cover the funding period (2021-2024).

Impacts
What was accomplished under these goals?
Mississippi (MS) stakeholders require assistance with identification of various pest issues and their management. Stakeholders increase their knowledgein these areas through individual assistance from specialists and from educational resources and events created and delivered by specialists. As a result, they become more knowledgeable of pest issues, can more easily recognize those issues, and are better prepared to effectively manage those issues. This change in knowledge leads to reduced pest issues, quicker implementation and use of more effective management methods, improved success in production, and decreased costs. (A heavy portion of the work for this project occurs during the summer months, which havenot yet occurred for the projectreporting period.) IPM Implementation in Agronomic Crops Objective 1: Provide technical assistance and troubleshooting to stakeholders (50% completed) •Specialists have provided technical assistance and troubleshooting in-person at meetings and site-visits and via phone, email, text, and in-person, to over 3,000 stakeholders. Objective 2: Conduct product evaluation and demonstration trials to support Extension recommendations and publications (60% completed) •Over 150 demonstration, product efficacy, and variety trials were initiated/conducted by specialists. Objective 3: Develop and disseminate information and resources through traditional and modern methods, such as in-print publications, electronic newsletters, videos, blogs, and podcasts(70% completed) •Fifty-one episodes of the Mississippi Crop Situation "Crop Doctors" Podcast have been delivered. •Eleven articles have been posted to the Mississippi Crop Situation Blog. •At least two MSU Extension publications, including the 2022 Insect Control Guide for Agronomic Crops, have been published and distributed to stakeholders. Objective 4: Develop and deliver formal and informal stakeholder (including county agents) trainings on target pests of agronomic crops(75% completed) •Eighteen educational programs were delivered in various counties in Mississippi. •Over 600 people from 16 states attended the MississippiRow Crop Short Course.
