New survey to measure downy mildew impact

Researchers at Cornell Cooperative Extension, Cornell University and Michigan State University are conducting a survey that seeks to determine the impacts of impatiens downy mildew on the greenhouse industry. No personally identifiable information will be released from this study, as all numbers will become part of an aggregate number.

 

The survey aims to gather information on the impact of the disease, grower and retailer responses to the disease, as well as information on trends in consumer purchasing. Results will be summarized and presented in industry magazines. The survey runs through Nov. 1, 2013. Participate in the survey now.
