Integrated Pest Management (IPM) - A Constructive Utensil to Manage Plant Fatalities

Insect pests are a serious menace to crops and inflict damage to plant leaves, stems, flowers, seeds and roots. For farmers in low input agricultural systems in developing countries like Pakistan, Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is potentially an effective tool of insect pests control. IPM is generally inexpensive, durable, non-polluting and locally improvable, which make it sustainable component of an integrated crop protection. Therefore, the present article deals with possibilities and suggestions for integrating pest control options to have additive or synergistic reduction of insect pest densities and protection of crop durability.
