Summary:
The insect pest management tactics are either preventive or
therapeutic. Preventive practices utilize tactics to lower environmental
carrying capacity i.e. reduce the general equilibrium position or
increase tolerance of the host to pest injury. Prevention relies on an
intimate understanding of the pest‘s life cycle, behavior and ecology.
Therapeutic tactics are applied as a correction to the system when
necessary. The objective of therapy is to dampen pest population
below the economic injury level. Actual integration involves proper
choice of compatible tactics and blending them so that each
component potentiates or complements the other.Number Of Quantity:
