Free webinar from PAPAS about potato nematode management

(Webinar)The Future of Potato Nematode Management: A Systems Approach

Potato farmers need more sustainable, accessible options to manage potato nematodes, and PAPAS researchers across the country are working together to make that future a reality. 

Watch our free webinar —The Future of Potato Nematode Management: A Systems Approach—to see how we’re building an integrated, science-driven strategy for tackling plant-parasitic nematodes in potato production. 

What You’ll Learn:

  • The current impact of potato nematodes on farms and markets
  • How data is used to predict economic outcomes of control strategies
  • New diagnostic tools for faster, more accurate detection
  • Breeding breakthroughs in nematode-resistant potato varieties
  • Exploration of natural biochemicals with nematicidal potential
  • Outreach efforts to ensure farmers can access and use these tools effectively

Presented by PAPAS
Potatoes & Pests – Actionable Science Against Nematodes is a collaborative team of nematologists, plant scientists, and ag economists focused on developing new solutions for managing potato nematodes. 

Speakers include:

  • John Lundeen – Director of Research and Analysis, Potatoes USA 
  • Louise-Marie Dandurand, Ph.D. – Plant Pathologist & Nematologist, University of Idaho 
  • Philip Watson – Agricultural Economist, University of Idaho 
  • Inga Zasada, Ph.D. – Research Plant Pathologist/Nematologist, USDA ARS 
  • Joseph Kuhl, Ph.D. – Plant Geneticist, University of Idaho 
  • Cynthia Gleason, Ph.D. – Plant Pathologist, Washington State University 

Whether you’re a grower, agronomist, researcher, or industry leader, this webinar will offer practical insights from PAPAS—and a look at what’s ahead for sustainable nematode management.
