This question explores effective IPM strategies for controlling major agricultural pests while reducing environmental impact. Contributions on cultural, biological, mechanical, and chemical methods, as well as innovative practices, are welcome. Examples from specific crops or regions are encouraged.
depends on the pest.....
the more You know about the pest the better You can target, the less You know the more You will have to rely on broad spectrum chemical pest management
Improving the plant response to abiotic factors like drought, salt stress, and nutrient deficiency will be a powerful method in IPM. Within this philosophy frame, the specialists can guarantee good plant health before the stress impacts. I concluded through my research that pre-foliar nutrition treatments will wake up the alarm immunity within plant metabolism. I would like to invite you to read the following articles in sequence to understand my viewpoint:
1 - Seedling’s Vigor of Tomato and Paprika Genotypes under a Simulated Model of Multiple Abiotic Stresses and Lower Dosage of Salicylic Acid
Journal of Agricultural Chemistry and Environment, 2022
2- Screening of paprika (Capsicum annuum L.) varieties resistant to NaCl salt stress. Acta agraria Debreceniensis, May 26, 2022
3- The Response of Chlorophyll Content and Ionic Composition in Tomato and Pepper Seedlings to Foliar Nutrition in Growing Chambers
Agronomy
4- Matrix Model for Integrated Pest Management as a Combined Function of Extension Education and Economic Concepts. Applied Studies in Agribusiness and Commerce
5- A Fundamental Protocol for Crop Health Status Evaluation Using Bio-Ecological Digital Sensors: A Technical Note. Journal of Applied Sciences Research
I think that you will get my theoretical points basically from articles number 1, 4, and 5. But, articles of numbers 2 and 3 will show you a practical section of this theory.
I hope that I helped you.
Good luck
