Integrated Pest Management: Potential, Constraints and Challenges
Edited by O Koul, Insect Biopesticide Research Centre, Jalandhar, India; G S Dhaliwlal, Punjab Agricultural University, India; G W Cuperus, Oklahoma State University, USA
Pub Date: June 2004
Hardback
336 pages
Readership
Crop protection, entomology and pest management.
Key Features
• Contributors are internationally recognized experts on their subjects
• Includes issues surrounding IPM, particularly of insects, in a number of specially commissioned chapters
Main Description
IPM Systems need to be developed for agriculture to be economically and environmentally strong, in production, storage, and food processing. Although the concept and philosophy of integrated pest management have been largely accepted for some time, its implementation is complex and faces numerous potential problems. If IPM is to enjoy widespread approval and adoption, it must be clearly defined and economically and socially acceptable. The topics covered in this book include a range of topics, such as: risk-benefit analysis, transgenic crops in IPM and consumer response to IPM.
Reviews
• "The editors have recruited a formidable team of authors to produce the thirteen information-packed chapters, each of which represents an amalgam of historical background, relevant science and present-day practice, together with as up-to-date a bibliography as possible."
Derek Clifford, Pest Management Science, November 2004
