The corporate objectives or goals of ARI are to combine traditional and innovative approaches to integrate pest management strategies into agronomic, horticultural, turfgrass, and ornamental cropping systems. This is accomplished through ground-level project research and development; laboratory, greenhouse, and field testing of biocontrol agents; evaluation of innovative compounds and materials; testing of equipment/techniques; evaluation of host/pathogen range(s) and interactions; evaluation of strategy limitations and market potential; diagnostics development and testing; protocol development and on, or off-site consultation. To meet these objectives, we carry out our core work in-house and actively collaborate with strategic partners for other activities.
