About UC IPM
History of the UC IPM Program
Building
on a growing movement within and outside the University to promote integrated
pest management research
and extension,
in 1979 the California
Legislature
funded the University of California to establish the Statewide IPM
Program.
This history of the UC IPM Program, written by Jim Lyons (director
or acting director of the program on four distinct occasions), details
the setting in which the idea for an IPM program arose, describes how the program developed,
and chronicles major milestones. It takes the program through mid-2003.
