Panelists will discuss how biocontrols such as insects, parasites or pathogens can be used as an invasive species management tool at the Hawaii workshop of the Western Governors’ Biosecurity and Invasive Species Initiative. Panelists: Darcy Oishi – Biocontrol Section Chief, Hawaii Dept. of Agriculture; Tracy Johnson – Research Entomologist, USFS – Pacific Southwest Research Station; Joel Price – Biological Control Entomologist, Oregon Dept. of Agriculture. The central policy initiative of Hawaii Governor David Ige’s term as Western Governors’ Association Chair is focused on the impacts that nuisance species, pests and pathogens have on ecosystems, forests, rangelands, watersheds, and infrastructure in the West. The workshop was held Dec. 10 in Hawaii.
