A research team, led by Dr. Ariana Torres, from Horticulture Economics at Purdue University, is developing an online tool designed to assist farmers in evaluating the economic impact of adopting integrated pest management strategies. This tool uses a TurboTax Q&A format to ask farmers for revenues and expenses growing leafy greens. The goal is to help farmers make informed decisions.

The team is organizing a series of webinars for growers that are growing (or considering) leafy greens in high tunnels. These webinars will guide participants through using the tool to assess the economic feasibility of using biological controls.
