VI/NFU IPM Plan – specialist horticulture crops
Step 1: Please enter your details
Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is a whole farm approach to crop protection that maximises profitability while minimising environmental impact. Find out more about IPM (link).
The VI/NFU IPM Plan enables individual businesses to evaluate their crop protection practices and continue to improve and develop IPM planning and adoption. The plan allocates scores for the different components of IPM, enabling users to establish a baseline score and measure improvements year on year. Upon completion you will receive a tailored report of your plan.
The collated information collected through these plans may be used to help develop future policy. Data collected from individual businesses will not be published or allow businesses to be identified by inference.
The VI would like to thank Henry Creissen of SRUC for their help in compiling these IPM Plans, which are based on published peer reviewed work ().
