Abstract
AbstractIntegrated pest management (IPM) is a holistic approach that considers all farming practices and control tactics to discourage the development of economically damaging pest populations with a focus on preventing and managing pest populations as opposed to single interventions to eliminate pests once a problem has occurred. The idea of the IPM toolkit analogy is to keep as many tools in the toolbox as possible to manage agricultural pests; the more tools available, the better chance of providing a solution to a given pest threat. Preserving these tools is critically important to IPM. This article is the second in the three‐part series in Crops & Soils magazine. It is part of an American Society of Agronomy training series sponsored by the Kellogg Company.
