Welcome to the IPM Planning Guide

Produced by some of the most highly regarded turfgrass researchers in the field, the IPM Planning Guide takes you step by step through the process of building a comprehensive integrated pest management (IPM) plan specific to your facility. You'll start with setting your goals and end with a complete plan that includes your management practices, schedule and even a related budget.

Each section of the guide is set up as its own unit – in it, you'll find all the materials you need, including sample plans, to complete that segment. The guide also contains a valuable set of reference materials that you'll want to download and have on-hand as a resource for your entire team.
