This week we're joined by Savanna Shelnutt, Ag Climate Resiliency Specialist with Cornell Cooperative Extension in the Hudson Valley. In this episode, Monique talks with Savanna about climate resiliency programs, Kerik brings us the latest disease forecasts, and Kelsey and Anna bring the State of the State of degree days, phenology and pest updates.
Our regular hosts include Monique Rivera (monique.rivera@cornell.edu), Assistant Professor of Entomology at Cornell AgriTech; Kerik Cox, Associate Professor of Plant Pathology at Cornell AgriTech; Kelsey Tobin, postdoctoral researcher, and Anna Wallis, Fruit IPM Coordinator at NYSIPM.
