8:30am-9:30am | EP & PF | How Characteristics of Insecticides Affect Field Performance and Risks | Dr. Whitney Cranshaw |
Speaker Bio:
Whitney Cranshaw is an Emeritus Professor of Entomology at Colorado State University where he has worked since 1983. During this time, he has conducted a wide-ranging Extension/Research/Teaching program with the primary focus of improving the understanding of and effective management of insects of horticultural crops (vegetables/fruits, flowers, trees/shrubs, turfgrass, hemp). He has written extensively on these subjects, producing many hundreds of publications on research and for public education/Extension. He has also written several books, perhaps best-known being Garden Insects of North America and Bugs Rule! An Introduction to the World of Insects. His work has been recognized by numerous awards from various “green industries” and professional associations, within the state and nationally. Although retired from CSU in July 2020, he has not retired from “bugs” and continues to write, speak with diverse audiences, manage websites and listserv discussion groups, and conduct research on projects of interest.
Course Description:
There are dozens of insecticides available to help manage problems with insects and mites on shade trees and shrubs. Each of these vary in their chemistry and formulation, changing characteristics that will affect their use and performance. These include differences in water solubility and the Koc values, which in turn determine features such as their mobility in soil or whether they can move systemically in the plant. Ability to resist breakdown in light or how they degrade in soils or water of different pH affects persistence. Products may have a broad spectrum of insects they may be able to kill, or may have a narrow range, affecting how selective are their effects on desirable insects such as biological controls or pollinators. This will be a brief overview of these key chemical and biological characteristics of insecticides commonly used to manage insects on turfgrass and landscape plants.

8am – 9am | 207 | Organics in Ornamentals: from Regulatory Bodies to Grower Technologies | Dave Burkhardt |
Speaker Bio:
Dave has been with Gowan USA for over 20 years, supporting the industry by delivering safe and effective technologies to the turf and ornamental markets across the Western U.S. Since 2011, Dave has worked closely with greenhouse and nursery growers, arborists, landscapers, and turf managers to address agronomic challenges. He is an active member of several industry associations, including: University of California Nursery and Floriculture Association, California Pest Control Advisors, Oregon Association of Nurseries, Arizona Nursery Association, Golf Course Superintendents Association of America (Hi-Lo and Cactus & Pine chapters), and Colorado Arborist and Landscape Professionals. Dave holds both bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Arizona State University.
Course Description:
As ornamental growers and nurserymen are guided by Integrated Pest Management (IPM) to seek pest control solutions that minimize effects to the environment, this class looks at both the Regulatory organizations governing Organic production as well as some of the common technologies (active ingredients) that are Organic Materials Review Institute (OMRI) listed and used in greenhouse/nursery/landscape production.
8am – 9am | 107 | Colorado Rangeland Restoration Successes: A Wildlife, Pollinators, and Wildfire Perspective | Dr. Derek Sebastian |
Speaker Bio:
Dr. Derek Sebastian is the Envu Range and Pasture Government Relations and Sales Manager. He completed his MS and PhD at Colorado State University with his main research focus on the development of new innovative tools for range and pasture, and industrial vegetation management. This includes detailed research and development of tools such as Rejuvra, Esplanade 200 SC, Plainview, Method, and Telar. He continues to focus on innovative tools to increase the efficiency and success of your rangeland, natural areas, and wildlife habitat restoration projects.
Course Description:
Invasive winter annual grasses (WAGs) such as cheatgrass, feral rye, medusahead, and ventenata continue to negatively impact western rangeland. Impacts include displacement of species diversity, displacement of critical wildlife and pollinator habitat, and a drastic increase in fine fuels associated with wildfire. These fires are extremely costly, including damage or loss of infrastructure, post-fire impacts (such as flooding and erosion), impacts to watersheds, and permanent devastation to ecosystem services. Rejuvra is a new mode of action to land managers providing multiple years of WAG control with a single application. This allows for the depletion of the WAG soil seed bank, ultimately increasing our restoration success. One concern of land managers, ecologists, and wildlife biologists throughout the west is the ever-increasing threat of cheatgrass, the possible permanent displacement of these in-tact ecosystems, and wildfire risk. Recent efforts by CSU, NRCS, and Front Range Open Space programs to control invasive annual grasses have provided several learning opportunities in terms of habitat enhancement and wildfire mitigation. Initial observations on fire impacted properties from CalWood, Cameron Peak, and Sublette County wildfires have shown that annual grass treatments can potentially alter fire behavior on Open Spaces, including reducing wildfire continuity and high intensity burns. These practitioner experiences demonstrate how landowners and management programs can prioritize areas to manage invasive annual grasses in order to mitigate wildfire risk and protect critical wildlife winter range.
