After meeting virtually in 2021, Miller Research will be holding its annual Potato Pest Management Meeting in person on February 10, 2022, at the Historic Wilson Theater in Rupert, ID. The meeting will run from 8:30 am to 12:00 pm with a 30-minute break at 10:00 am. Three CCA (integrated pest management) credits and three ISDA pesticide recertification credits have been awarded for the meeting. Oregon and Washington credits have been requested.
We are working on making a virtual option available. If this works, virtual attendees will still need to pay the registration fee and answer questions during the presentation as proof of attendance.
Registration is $20 to cover the cost of the meeting. Additional proceeds will be donated to the 4-H program.

8:00 am – 8:30 am: Registration
