The goal of the Horticulture Extension efforts are 1) to provide commercial growers, homeowners, landscape and turf professionals, and other interests the information required to manage horticultural plant growth and diagnose and control insect, disease, and weed pests, and 2) provide guidance and support to elementary and secondary educators in coastal Mississippi to enhance plant science-based curriculum.
Below are links to selected publications produced by MSU-ES personnel and provide useful reference information for the management of horticultural plants and crops. If you do not see a particular topic you can search the Mississippi State University Extension Service at www.msucares.com. There is also a new information portal that links university extension information, eXtension, at www.extension.org.
