dc.description.abstractThe MyIPM for Vegetables app is a free integrated pest management tool for industry professionals. The app is the latest release of the MyIPM app series, which includes MyIPM Fruit and Nut, MyIPM Row Crops, and MyIPM Hawaii. App content for MyIPM for Vegetables was written by contributors from land-grant institutions across the Southeast region of the United States. Commodities included in the app are tomato, cucurbits, peppers, and brassicas. App usage data and relevance to Virginia are discussed. Next steps to further evaluate usage trends and further serve Virginia producers are also introduced. An overview of Land-grant Institutions, Cooperative Extension, integrated pest management, the MyIPM app series, and Agriculture Census data is also presented.en
