| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses integrated pest management (IPM), highlighting how "insecticides have changed so dramatically...and how the manner in which they are used and the timing of application may be perceived as anti-IPM." Explains that "one particularly disconcerting discovery in many agricultural systems was that the applications of many pesticides were reducing the populations of beneficial organisms. This often resulted in one of two things happening. First, the pest that was treated would often rebound much fater than its natural enemies and become a problem again in a few weeks. The other situation that was often observed was that other pest problems could be created by eliminating the natural enemies that typically kept them in check once a pesticide was applied." Mentions that there has been "considerable progress in the development of alternative strategies for pest control, including cultural practices, endophyte-enhanced turfgrass, biological control, forecasting, monitoring and improved understanding of natural enemies." States that "another industry trend that challenges [the] IPM philosophy is the use of fertilizers as insecticide carriers. This approach is one of convenience and cost." |
