Extractions: Links to US EPA for information on: - About PESP - Joining - Members - Publications ... - Resources Texas IPM Foundation Several EPA-supported programs exist to reduce the risks and use of pesticides. Perhaps the longest running risk mitigation effort is the pesticide applicator Certification and Training program, which has an established outreach to more than one million applicators nationwide. These applicators include agricultural producers and others involved in pest management who also are the key target audience of the Integrated Pest Management (IPM) Program. This proposal seeks to establish a pilot project in Texas to deliver IPM education via web-based, interactive learning modules, which will be designed to fulfill the mandatory training needed by 66,000 pesticide applicators. Once developed, the modules and associated delivery system can be accessed in part or whole by other states, for either general education or required pesticide applicator training. Also, upon completion, the modules will be maintained as an ongoing part of the Pesticide Applicator Training (PAT) Program of the Texas Agricultural Extension Service.

Katherine Esau During the second year, Dr. Esau went south and spent two semesters in Hohenheim, near Stuttgart, where she enrolled in various agricultural courses. http://www.botany.org/bsa/misc/esau.html
Extractions: Reproduced with permission from the Plant Science Bulletin , Volume 31 No 5, October 1985. With the presentation of the first Katherine Esau Award, established by her for student papers and named by others for her this evening, I thought it would be fitting to devote my address to Dr. Esau, herself a life-long student. Many of us are familiar with her research and books, but few of us know her personally or the difficult and unusual path she followed to her distinguished career as a botanist. Indeed, she is today the grande dame of American Botany. MODERN AMERICAN GOTHIC The picture above is one example among many shown during the talk. Dr. Esau humorously gave it its title. Katherine Esau was born on April 3, 1898, in the City of Yekaterinoslav, now called Dnepropetrovsk, in the Ukraine. The city was named originally after Katherine the Great who promoted agriculture in the steppes of the Ukraine by inviting settlers from Germany, among them the Mennonites. Dr. Esau's family is Mennonite. Dr. Esau's great-grandfather Aron Esau immigrated to the Ukraine In 1804 from Prussia. Her grandfather Jacob Esau dealt in grain commerce and lived in the so-called colony of Gnadenfeld, where her father John was born. Her father and his older brother, Jacob, left the colony to study In Russian schools the first Mennonites from their colony to do so. Her uncle became an eye doctor and her father a Mechanical Engineer.

Extractions: Agricultural training was one of the primary missions of the College from its beginnings. In the 1872 Catalog, Agriculture is listed as one of 13 courses of study. It consisted of lectures on: the selection, breeding, food, shelter, use, nature, and management of farm animals; dairy farming; soils; plants; landscape gardening; floriculture; farm economics; and building materials. Agriculture was one of the first four major administrative divisions created when Deans were appointed to the academic departments. In 1907-08, there was a School of Scientific Agriculture and a School of Agricultural Apprentices, but both were subordinate to the Department of Agriculture that had its own Dean. In 1920-21, the title was changed to School of Agriculture; then in 1964, it became the College of Agriculture. The name was changed to the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences in 1971. Return to Guide Mounted clippings concerning Agriculture from 1906-47 are located under classification "MA." From 1948-59, the mounted clippings are divided into the different Agriculture departments, with each department having a separate classification. The classifications are: Agronomy - MAAG; Animal Husbandry - MAAN; Animal Pathology - MAB.AP; Forestry - MAB.F; Biochemistry and Nutrition - MABio; Dairy - MAD; Agricultural Economics - MAHm; Horticulture - MAHr; Horticulture Garden Short Course - MAHrG; Institute of Rural Affairs - MAIn; Agriculture-Misc. - MAM; Poultry - MAP; Vocational Education - MAV; Plant Pathology and Plant Physiology - MAPP.
