Dr. Sally Miller is an Extension State Specialist for vegetable crop diseases. She works closely with growers, processors and Extension educators to develop practical solutions to crop production problems.
The vegetable pathology team diagnoses diseases in the laboratory and field, tests different disease control strategies within the umbrella of integrated pest management, and communicates results on a regular basis to our clientele. This is accomplished through electronic and print media as well as farm visits and presentations at meetings, tours and field days.
