CropLife America (CLA) encourages the continued research into pest management and crop protection technology. With a base of sound, science-based research, the crop protection industry can continue to produce safe and effective products in the face of evolving agricultural threats. Crop research and science is vital to helping provide the world with high-quality food and fiber.
A number of organizations independent of CLA have published important studies in pest management and crop protection. Collected by CropLife International, these studies represent the latest research and data in the field.
Purdue University has created a page devoted to the continuing research of pest management and crop protection technology. Through various multimedia outlets, Purdue University has produced a wealth of great content related to the crop protection industry.
