Far below normal precipitation has caused a drought and increased fire danger levels. All of Connecticut is currently in a Stage 2 Drought Advisory. Residents are encouraged to be mindful of water consumption and use extra caution to prevent fires. An emergency burn ban remains in effect at all state parks, forests, and wildlife management areas, prohibiting the use of all outdoor grills, firepits, campfires, etc.

Plant Pathology and Ecology

Research is conducted on diseases of plants, and plant problems are diagnosed for growers and the general public. Station pathologists are developing and integrating knowledge of the ecological interactions of plants, pathogens, and their environment to develop sustainable management strategies for plant pathogens with minimum use of pesticides. The mission is to solve disease problems using economical methods that ensure a safe food supply and protect the environment.
