  1. NIFA programs forIPMIntegrated Pest Management Martin A. Draper National Program Leader Plant Pathology and IPM

  2. NIFA Funding • Funding runs along a spectrum… • Non-competitive to Competitive. • Reasons vary: • Purpose (what) • Justification (why) • Eligibility (who), and • How long (when)

  3. NIFA Funding – Continuum • Unofficial model… Capacity--Non-Competitive Capacity--Competitive Extended Capacity Core Capacity Competitive Non-Competitive Fully Competitive

  4. NIFA Funding – Capacity/Formula • Core Capacity • Hatch/Hatch MS • Smith-Lever 3 b-c • Evans-Allen • 1890 Extension • UDC Extension • 1994 Extension • Extended Capacity • Smith-Lever 3(d) • EFNEP • McIntire-Stennis • RREA • eXtension • Special grants AREERA Reporting

  5. NIFA Funding – Capacity/Formula • Capacity-Non-Competed • Animal Health & Disease • Smith-Lever 3(d) • EFNEP • Ext IPM (pre-FCEA) • McIntire-Stennis • NPDN / NAHLN • Capacity-Competed • Farm/Youth Safety • CYFAR • FRTEP

  6. NIFA Funding • Competitive • May serve a capacity function (ongoing programming need), or may not (temporal). • Specialty Crop Research Initiative (SCRI) • Organic Research & Extension Initiative (OREI) • Methyl Bromide Transitions (MBT) • Crop Protection and Pest Management (CPPM) • Three program areas: • Agricultural Research and Development Program (ARDP) • Extension Implementation Program (EIP) • Regional Coordination Program (RCP)

  7. NIFA Funding • Competitive • May serve a capacity function (ongoing programming need), or may not (temporal). • Specialty Crop Research Initiative (SCRI) • Methyl Bromide Transitions (MBT) • Crop Protection and Pest Management (CPPM) • Three program areas: • Agricultural Research and Development Program (ARDP) • Extension Implementation Program (EIP) • Regional Coordination Program (RCP)

  8. NIFA Funding • So what changed? • Mainly one word – • “Shall be distributed…” to “Shall be competed…” • 1890s made eligible. • Some programs chose not to apply. • Capped at $350K initially, then $300K. • Formula range? $18K to ~$700K.

  9. Competing Extension IPM • Goals. • Respect stakeholder input. • Obey the law… • Allow all entities to see their customers in the program “emphasis areas”. • Emphasis Areas – a menu, not a prescription • Primary – Agronomic, Specialty, Urban, Animal • Secondary – Diagnostics, Schools, Housing, Public health, Conservation, Recreation, PAT/PSEP, Wide-area monitoring

  10. Finding the best alignment • So many IPM related lines - so little funding in most. • Lost lines: • Crops at Risk (CAR). • Risk Avoidance and Mitigation Program (RAMP). • Critical Issues. • “National IPM Committee” first proposed consolidation.

  11. IPM Consolidation – First proposed in FY2013 Presidents budget. – Adopted by Congress in FY 2014 Appropriations Act. – Good and bad aspects. – Comes with challenges. – The devil is in the details! • Lines proposed: • IPM Centers • EIPMDSS • PMAP • Regional IPM • EIPM-CS • IR-4

  12. Areas of function/programming • Plant Protection Tactics and Tools. • Diversified IPM Systems. • Enhancing Agricultural Biosecurity. • IPM for a Sustainable Society. • Development of the Next Generation of IPM Scientists.

  13. IPM Consolidation

  14. Creating CPPM • Informed by stakeholder input • Some was helpful… • Some was not. • ECOP White Paper was considered and applied as best we could. • Centers and local programs were changed as little as possible. • Research component changed the most.

  15. CPPM Model Sustainable Food Security National IPM Roadmap Goals

  16. 35 Years of Smith-Lever 3(d) IPM *Black line appropriation indicates “payments to states”.

  17. Funds Distribution - Crop Protection

  18. EIPM/EIP Comparison Reasons for success? Clear plan with stakeholder engagement and evaluation. What – Why – Can you prove success? Reasons for disappointment? No apparent stakeholder engagement. Weak to no evaluation.

  19. Panel Composition

  22. Priority Area Comparison

  23. Evolving Integration for IPM Outcomes and Impacts Education and Implementation Extension (Behavior) Research (Knowledge) EIP ARDP RCP* 4 *IPM Centers Stakeholder Feedback Research 3 Extension Research 2 Extension Research Extension 1

  24. Outcomes • Reported outcomes from 2008-2012 • More than 300 outcomes reported from 53 awards. • 160 Knowledge. • 140 Behavioral. • Most from high value/high input/specialty crops, followed by agronomic IPM, and urban IPM. • 1-26 outcomes/award. • Averaged 5.6 outcomes per award.

  25. Concerns and Initiatives • Pollinators! • Presidential Memorandum -- Creating a Federal Strategy to Promote the Health of Honey Bees and Other Pollinators • Includes several action plans. • NIFA Pollinator coordinator: • Mary Purcell-Miramontes • (202) 401-5168 mpurcell@nifa.usda.gov
