Purdue Pesticide Programs (PPP), as part of the Purdue University Cooperative Extension Service (CES), has a unique, interdisciplinary purpose relative to pesticide issues. Its mission encompasses three broad areas: implementation of pesticide education outreach programs directed at pesticide user groups and the general public; coordination of pesticide research and pesticide impact assessment projects between Agricultural Experiment Station researchers and Cooperative Extension specialists; and transfer of regulatory information from EPA and the Office of the Indiana State Chemist to the regulated community and other interested parties. A philosophy committed to enhancing educational efforts, improving communication links, and encouraging diverse viewpoints facilitates the successful fulfillment of these obligations.
