The IPSN Small Grants Scheme is funding a project to research methods of collecting and recording pest and disease data in living plant collections in the UK, carried out by two undergraduate students at Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh (RBGE). To capture useful and comprehensive data for this project, they are seeking input from gardens and arboretum across the UK. It would be much appreciate if you could take a few minutes to fill out this survey (5-7 minutes).

This survey data will allow the project to build a more representative picture of how plant health and disease data is collected in the UK. If you have any questions about the research or have any further input, please get in touch.
