Principles Of Integrated Pest Management And Their Applications In Field Crops : AgroEcological, Integrated Pest Management And

Insecticides Benefit The Crops; However, They Also Impose A Serious Negative Impact On The Environment Such As Biodiversity Erosion, Non-Sustenance, Biomagnification Of Pesticides, Insect Resurgence, Toxicity To Non-Target Beneficial Organisms, Pesticide Residues Related Human Health Isssues Etc. Green Revolution Encourages Use Of High Yielding Crop Varieties For Higher Food Production. However, High Yielding Varities Are Input Responsive And Perform Well Only When Higher Amount Of Irrigation Water, Fertilizers, Pesticides And Other Agricultural Inputs Are Applied. If A Crop Variety Requires Higher Inputs, It Also Attracts Pest And Diseases. Here, The Concept Of Ecology And Balance Of Life Play An Major Role. As Per The Science, Insects Can Not Be Controlled Completely Or Made Local Extinction Only By Use Of Insecticides. Due To Misconception Of Agro-Ecology, The Present World Have Contaminated The Entire EarthS Biosphere With Toxic Pestcides And Agricultural Chemicals. Integrated Pest Management (Ipm) Is An Effective And Environmentally Sensitive Approach To Pest Management That Relies On A Combination Of Various Ipm Methods. Ipm Programs Use Current, Comprehensive Information On The Life Cycles Of Pests And Their Interaction With The Environment. This Book Reveals About The Principles And Practices Of Integrated Pest Management On Various Crops Pests. This Book Also Reveals On Concept Of Agro-Ecology And Insect Pests Management.
