DriftWatch.org a Useful Tool for Those Who Raise Bees and Specialty Crops
This weekend I attended the Northern Indiana Grazing Conference. I was helping people signup for DriftWatch, a free online mapping service for those who raise sensitive crops like fruit, vegetables, and organically raised grains, pasture and hay, and bees.
Think of DriftWatch as a communication tool designed to help growers of sensitive specialty crops communicate with pesticide applicators. It is not a regulatory tool.
