"IPM Outline" spreadsheet version 5 (last updated May 15, 2009)

IPM Outline (.xls)

To Protect the details of members this spreadsheet is password protected. The password is the name of the city where we had our 2008 Congress, in all lower case letters.

The Taskforce is divided into five main groups (diseases, nematodes, insects, weeds and IPM components), each with a group leader.  Each of those five groups is further subdivided into sections, each with a section leader.  These section leaders allocate the tasks, and report back to the group leader.

The attached Excel spreadsheet gives a list of taskforce members with contact addresses, the overall outline of the taskforce structure and a sheet for each group.  This file will be constantly updated.  Each update will have a different suffix in the file name (e.g. IPM_Outline_5.xls) and the version number and date of last update will be displayed both in the file (as a header) and at the top of this page.
