Insects & Mites: Integrated Solutions for Crop Protection
California growers face relentless challenges from insect and mite pests that threaten crop yields and quality across every major agricultural system. They face icreasing pressure from invasive species, pesticide resistance, and tightening regulations, all while needing to maintain productivity and profitability. Effective management of these pests requires timely and reliable solutions that align with evolving production challenges.
At Rooted Research, we work with growers and companies to evaluate the economic impact of insect and mite pests and explore emerging tools for their management, helping advance practical and sustainable crop protection strategies.
Managing insect and mite pests requires more than just new products—it demands credible data, real-world testing, and alignment with California’s strict regulatory standards. At Rooted Research, we collaborate with growers, agricultural companies, and industry stakeholders to test and refine pest management tools under both greenhouse and field conditions. Our goal is to generate high-quality, relevant data that helps products move efficiently through regulatory processes and into the hands of growers who need them.
We assess product performance, pest suppression, and crop impact in diverse environments to ensure that pest control solutions are not only effective but practical and scalable for California agriculture.
