A head-and-shoulders portrait of a smiling man looking directly at the camera. He has curly, dark brown hair, a full beard and mustache, and bright blue eyes. He is wearing a dark gray, short-sleeved polo shirt with a fine, horizontally ribbed texture. The background is blurred, showing a framed artwork with soft, abstract colors on the left and a plain, light wood-toned surface on the right.

The Crop Protection Network (CPN) is a collaborative network of university Extension specialists and researchers working to provide unbiased, research-based information that helps agricultural professionals make informed crop-management decisions. CPN brings experts together across institutions to develop educational resources, synthesize research and field data and communicate emerging crop-protection issues. Through this collaborative approach, CPN delivers timely, consistent and accessible information on crop diseases and other threats to crop production.
