Abstract: The greenhouse ornamentals industry in Ontario, Canada uses biological control widely as its primary pest management strategy. Reasons for the high rate of adoption are many, but this paper focuses on the pathway of technology transfer from research to adoption, and the role of growers in the research process. Discussion is supported by examples of adopted research in Ontario.
