A grower's journey to lighter touch crop protection

Grower Howe Young, has come a long way from weekly spraying in the late 1970s to nowadays championing crop monitoring, biodiversity and softer chemistries.    In this ‪@alightertouchnewzealand‬ video, Howe describes his crop protection journey from his early years on the family vegetable farm to becoming an integral player in the success of the numerous A Lighter Touch projects and activities at the Pukekohe Research and Demonstration Farm, where he is farm manager.  Olivia Prouse is the project lead for the A Lighter Touch-Vegetables New Zealand-Onions New Zealand biodiversity project at the farm. She credits Howe’s willingness to try new options and interest in the use of beneficials to support pest management as an important contributing factor to enabling work which contributes to industry knowledge and helps to de-risk new practices for other growers.  Keep updated on news from A Lighter Touch by signing up for the monthly newsletter In Touch here: https://a-lighter-touch.co.nz/keep-up...
