A Pest Management Conservation System is a system that combines an Integrated Pest Management decision making process with natural resource conservation to address pest and environmental impacts. This video explores how Steve Ward implemented this practice in Wareham, Massachusetts. Practice benefits:
• Reduces Pesticide use
• Saves on input costs
• Protects natural resources
• Helps protect wildlife
• Reduces threat to groundwater
The Conservation at Work video series was created to increase producer awareness of common conservation practices and was filmed at various locations throughout the country. Because conservation plans are specific to the unique resource needs on each farm and also soil type, weather conditions, etc., these videos were designed to serve as a general guide to the benefits of soil and water conservation and landowners should contact their local USDA office for individual consultation.
