About Us
We are a group of 14 scientists from five North Central states and the USDA who are collaborating on a research program funded by the North Central Soybean Research Program to conduct research on importation biological control of soybean aphid.

Our objectives are to determine the potential for establishment, safety, and compatibility of imported natural enemies of the soybean aphid; to educate growers of the potential of biological control to manage soybean aphid; and to develop a region-wide release program to provide biological control options to soybean producers in the Midwest.
