Syngenta is expanding its Pest Patrol program for the 2012 season. It has enhanced the Pest Patrol website to be compatible with most mobile devices. It’s also added five entomologists to record pest updates and is expanding the program into Missouri, Nebraska, Iowa, Illinois and Minnesota.
Currently in its third season, the Pest Patrol hotline, text message alert program and website provide growers access to recorded updates about pest pressures, treatment recommendations and field conditions from expert university entomologists. With real-time pest alerts, scouts can help growers customize their insect management plans to fit the conditions in their specific region.
Growers may call the toll-free hotline at (877) 285-8525, or visit www.syngentapestpatrol.com.
