New Extension agent Robert Cating is stationed in Hilo, attached to Plant and Environmental Protection Sciences and focused on floriculture, nursery and related industries statewide.
Brent Sipes was named a Fellow of the Society of Nematologists for excellence in research and Extension and service to the society—an elite honor bestowed upon less than 1 percent of members in any given year.
Mark Wright is lead author of a recent study that describes how elephants can be safely deterred from entering areas where they might do damage: with honeybee pheromones! Another research project Mark is involved in with more local applications is the use of pheromones as control agents for agricultural pests in Hawai‘i.
CTAHR faculty and Master Gardeners helped Jefferson Elementary students with Project Lemon Tree, which established CO2-reducing trees, an arbor, and student gardens on a campus site vandalized in 2016.
Insect ecology specialist Mark Wright explains how honeybee pheromones could be a tool for preventing human-elephant conflicts in the July 23 issue of Current Biology.
