Be prepared to work in group settings to design spray programs within specific examples. This program will highlight their critical management periods, resistance management, and resources to help you in the future. At the end of the workshop, we plan for you to walk away with an example spray program and the knowledge to adapt it each year to your vineyard. Please bring your laptop if you have one.
