The semi-annual meeting of the PPDC occurred virtually this week. This committee is made up of pesticide stakeholders across the political spectrum and serves as a forum for EPA to discuss topical issues. This week, the PPDC tackled pesticide resistance management, emerging agricultural technology, the agency’s efforts to confront the COVID-19 pandemic, emerging pathogens, and farmworker pesticide training. NALP continues to engage with EPA as a stakeholder representing landscape uses of pesticides, advising the agency how members use these products in servicing our customers such that the agency can make informed and accurate decisions.
