The state contact has a close working relationship with applicator groups such as the Oklahoma Agribusiness Retailers Association, Oklahoma Agricultural Aviation Association, and Oklahoma Vegetation Management Association, and Oklahoma Pest Control Association. The Oklahoma State Contact works closely with the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture, Food and Forestry, IR-4 Liaison, and IPM coordinator in trying to meet Oklahoma pest management needs. The state contact has worked closely with the IPM Coordinator to start a volunteer school IPM program in Oklahoma.
