This award recognizes the successful efforts of a collaborative team approach to pest control. Priority is given, but not limited, to small teams (defined as having 10 or fewer members) and must include entomologists from both the private and public sectors. The focus of the award is teamwork and project success and should be aligned with the subject matter of the Plant-Insect Ecosystems Section. At least one of the members of the team must be an ESA member of the P-IE Section. Nominations may be made by anyone. The nomination package must include a letter of nomination that provides a brief explanation of how the team members excelled in performing their duties; the summary of the IPM project and its impact and success; background information of each team member to be included with the CV; and research information related to the team's project research publications. This award is offered every other year, on odd years. Please visit the award's website for more information.
