Welcome to the 2024 Purdue Landscape Report! We’ll be sending out the newsletter every other week throughout the growing season. New in 2024 we’ll be featuring bi-weekly articles from the Indiana State Climate Office. As we all know, the ‘new normal’ for weather is now ‘abnormal’. The State Climate Office will be providing a recap and upcoming outlook for weather, which will allow you to more effectively plan for pesticide applications, schedule irrigation, predict pest emergence, and provide your clients with more efficient plant health care. You can access their website here for more in-depth climate information.
