Description
EPA Region 10 is soliciting proposals for a pilot project to support agricultural community transition from high-risk pesticides to the use of reduced-risk methods of agricultural pest control. The program supports grants for education, development, demonstration, and studies for Food Quality Protection Act transition and employs reduced risk practices for pest management in agriculture. The desired pilot project will develop and test a decision support system to implement FQPA requirements for soil fumigants under localized application methods and scenarios, and provide options for alternative soil-borne pest control tactics.
