AFE realizes that research you support must have direct value to each of you and to your companies.<br>Assuring that research is relevant to flower production begins with making sure that researchers are familiar and see first-hand the conditions upon which their results will be used. During the first week of October, three accomplished thrips researchers accompanied me to Medellin, Colombia to visit flower farms. These researchers included JC Chong of Clemson University and Margaret Skinner and Bruce Parker of the University of Vermont.<br><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-10782 size-medium\" title=\"afe researchers in medellin, columbia\" src=\"https:\/\/endowment.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/imported-files\/medellin-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"afe researchers in medellin, columbia\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\">In late 2016, we also took AFE-funded Botrytis researchers to flower farms. The following report by JC Chong in PestTalks provides an overview of the Medellin, Columbia trip. Now, all of these researchers now understand the production conditions and current insect control practices used in South American cut flower production. After the first of the year, we will host a couple of researchers visiting growers in California. We are asking that, where appropriate, researchers will have on-site \u2018Proof of Concept\u2019 trials at growers.<br><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-10807 size-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/endowment.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/imported-files\/jcchong-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\"><\/p><h4><\/h4><h4>Read JC Chong\u2019s trip debrief in Ball Publishing\u2019s PestTalks\u00a0e-newsletter\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.growertalks.com\/Newsletters\/View\/?article=2676\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Aqu\u00ed<\/a>.<\/h4><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-10808 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/endowment.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/imported-files\/PestTalks-300x87.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"87\"><\/p><p>Support from each of <a href=\"https:\/\/endowment.org\/es\/botrytis-thrips\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">these organizations<\/a> has allowed the American Floral Endowment to expand the scientific research efforts on thrips and Botrytis.
