Abstract

Abstract : A comprehensive website was created to assist peanut growers and extension personnel in the Virginia–Carolinas region of the United States with production and pest management decisions. Content is categorized into sections, including: Disease Advisories, Decision Aids, Topics (Cultivars, Diseases, Insects and Mites, Production, and Weeds), Peanut Notes, Extension Publications, People, a Key Word Index, a Glossary, RSS Feeds, and Related Links . The website also displays information sheets that detail production practices as well as identification and management of diseases, weeds, insects, and nematodes. A custom editing program was written to facilitate timely updates to the website by various content providers.
