The New Brunswick Horticultural Trades Association applauds the Town of Grand Bay-Westfield for its positive approach to municipal lawn care practices. The town recently issued a tender call for maintaining a portion of its properties using Integrated Pest Management (IPM) - the first true tender for IPM in turf in New Brunswick. 'The approach taken in this tender represents a quantum leap forward in pesticide reduction concepts for the province ' a concept that sets the stage for environmentally responsible turf management practices for the future, said Jack Wetmore, the IPM and conservation project coordinator for the association. The tender was awarded to Urban Landscaping of St. John, one of the leading IPM firms in the association. Integrated Pest Management sets out three key criteria in turf care:
The New Brunswick Horticultural Trades Association, in cooperation with the Provincial Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Aquaculture and the Department of Environment and Local Government, has been working to compile information for the region in an IPM guideline for turf care. It is also conducting trials to validate 'outside' recommendations. The guideline project has just reached circulation stage for initial drafts. Its content will provide the necessary technical background to close the gap in similar future projects. ''Both community staff and cooperating personnel within the Departments of Environment and Agriculture deserve the strongest possible recognition for Grand Bay - Westfield's landmark initiative," said Mr. Wetmore. "It represents the most tangible demonstration we've seen in the turf field to date to support the environmental stewardship efforts of Environment, Agriculture and industry." Jack Wetmore, P. Ag., NBHTA IPM and Conservation Project Coordinator. 357-6324 jwetmore@nbnet.nb.ca |
