Download or read book Integrated Pest Management of Tropical Vegetable Crops written by Rangaswamy Muniappan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-11-23 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is an edited book with chapters written by multi-disciplinary specialists in their specific subject areas. It covers development of IPM components and packaging them for individual vegetable crops specifically targeted to tropical countries. Scientific background for IPM components or tactics will be included. There will be case studies of IPM packages developed and implemented in different countries. The concept of IPM has been in existence for the past six decades; however, a practical holistic program has not been developed and implemented for vegetable crops, in the developing countries. Currently the IPM adoption rate in the tropics is minimal and there is a need for implementation of IPM technologies that are environmentally safe, economical, and socially acceptable. We believe that adoption and implementation of IPM provided in this book will lead to significant reduction in crop losses and mitigate adverse impacts of pesticide use in the tropics. This book is an outcome 20 years of research, development and implementation of the IPM CRSP, a project supported by USAID and administered by Virginia Tech in several developing countries along the tropical belt in Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean.

Download or read book Integrated Management of Pests in Vegetable Crops written by Ekta Singh and published by . This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crop Pest And Their Ecofriendly Control Has Attracted The Attention Of All Spheres Of Our Society. This Is Mainly Due To The Fact That Pest S Effect On Crops Is Not Limited To The Damage They Cause To Crops But Is Furthered By Economic And Ecological Impacts Involved. Therefore, The Awakening Of People Has Led To Strategic Developments Of Technologies Effectively And Safely Applicable To Control Pest In Standing Crops And Storage Of Crop Produce. Among Such Technologies, The Use Of Chemical Pesticides Is Being Steadily Replaced By Modern Technique Of Integrated Pest Management. This System Lays Emphasis On Minimizing The Use Of Otherwise, Hazardous Pesticides And Widening The Scope Of Biopesticides, Cultural Practices, Botanicals, Insect Growth Hormones And Pheromones In Combination With Nuclear Polyhedrosis Virus (Npv) And Btk. For Testing The Efficacy Of Such Control Measures Under Field Conditions And Under Laboratory Environment, The Biology Of Pests In Relation To Crop Is Essentially Be Studied. The Relative Resistance Of Different Cultivars Of Vegetable Crops To Pest Attack/Infestation Is Also Of Paramount Importance Alongwith General Variability In The Responses Of Crop Cultivars To Control Measures And Also Of Pest To Different Pest Management Technologies. The Book Contains Properly Processed, Screened And Relevant Scientific Information Of Societal Relevance On Diverse Facets Of Applied And Basic Aspects Of Biology Of Pests And Integrated Pest Management In Vegetable Crops Like Chilli, Tomato, Brinjal And Tomato. Such Information Have Laid Proper Emphasis On Ecofriendly And Economically Viable Control Measures. The Book Will Be Useful To Students, Teachers And Researchers In The Field Of Vegetable Crops, Horticulture, Spices, Entomology, Zoology, Agricultural Zoology, Environment And Ecology.
Download or read book Ecofriendly Pest Management for Food Security written by Omkar and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2016-02-03 with total page 764 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ecofriendly Pest Management for Food Security explores the broad range of opportunity and challenges afforded by Integrated Pest Management systems. The book focuses on the insect resistance that has developed as a result of pest control chemicals, and how new methods of environmentally complementary pest control can be used to suppress harmful organisms while protecting the soil, plants, and air around them. As the world’s population continues its rapid increase, this book addresses the production of cereals, vegetables, fruits, and other foods and their subsequent demand increase. Traditional means of food crop production face proven limitations and increasing research is turning to alternative means of crop growth and protection. Addresses environmentally focused pest control with specific attention to its role in food security and sustainability. Includes a range of pest management methods, from natural enemies to biomolecules. Written by experts with extensive real-world experience.

Download or read book Ecologically Based Integrated Pest Management written by D. P. Abrol and published by New India Publishing Agency. This book was released on 2012 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The availability of modern tools and transgenic crop protection technology has opened new vistas in the vast field of pest management. All these issues form the focus of the book, where they have been discussed by eminent scientists who are authority in their respective fields. The book describes the science and art of integrated pest management. It contains 48 chapters grouped into six sections which include topics ranging from: ? Impact on food security ? Breeding for resistance ? IPM in crops, fruits, vegetables ? Future strategies and policy issues. ? IPR related issues It also gives detailed information on emerging strategies and problems such as the role of biotechnology and the implications of IPR issues. The roles of IPM in sustaining food productivity, contribution of IPM in meeting economic, environmental and social costs have been elaborated. The role of diagnostic tools, weather forecasting, transgenic plants, biological control, and new chemicals in future IPM programmes and strategies to meet the challenges of pest adaptation have been highlighted. The need for improved information transfer, implementation and application of IPM has been discussed. Finally, it is essential to know the status of IPM, its future, challenges and constraints which have been extensively elaborated in the last chapter of this book. The book intends to fill the gap by providing the critical analysis of different management strategies having bearing on agriculture sustainability and environmental protection. The compilation of this book is unique in the sense that it does not deal with the conventional way of discussing pest management with respect to particular crops or the regions. It emphasizes on the other hand an overview of the management strategies with critical evaluation of each in the larger context of ecologically based pest management.
Download or read book Integrated Management of Insect Pests on Canola and Other Brassica Oilseed Crops written by Gadi V P Reddy and published by CABI. This book was released on 2017-04-26 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book comprehensively reviews current pest management practices and explores novel integrated pest management strategies in Brassica oilseed crops. It is essential reading for pest management practitioners and researchers working on pest management in canola and other Brassica crops worldwide. Canola, mustard, camelina and crambe are the most important oilseed crops in the world. Canola is the second largest oilseed crop in the world providing 13% of the world's supply. Seeds of these species commonly contain 40% or more oil and produce meals with 35 to 40% protein. However, its production has declined significantly in recent years due to insect pest problems. The canola pest complexes are responsible for high insecticide applications on canola. Many growers rely on calendar-based spraying schedules for insecticide applications. The diamondback moth Plutella xylostella and flea beetles Phyllotreta spp. (P. cruciferae and P. striolata)cause serious damage to canola. In the Northern Great Plains, USA, for instance, P. xylostella is now recorded everywhere that canola is grown. Severe damage to canola plants can be caused by overwintering populations of flea beetles feeding on newly emerged seedlings. Cabbage seed pod weevil (Ceutorhynchus obstrictus), swede midge (Contarinia nasturtii), and tarnished plant bug (Lygus lineolaris) are also severe pests on canola. Minor pests include aphids (cabbage aphid, Brevicoryne brassicae and turnip aphid, Hyadaphis erysimi) and grasshopper, Melanoplus sanguinipes.
