RESUMEN

This book covers integrated pest management (IPM) from multidisciplinary, multicountry and multifaceted components in terms of holistic and unified IPM systems and its implementation in various fields concerned with pest management. Beyond IPM, pest management without pesticides in the tropics with empirical evidence is discussed. The book is an inter-disciplinary endeavour to document the content and process areas of IPM in industrialized, Green Revolution and subsistence agriculture systems and is the first of its kind where IPM has been discussed from different perspectives, documenting divergent thoughts to integrate their inferences to cater for the needs of scientists, graduate students, extension education specialists and policy makers associated with IPM research and development, implementation, evaluation and planning. It is hoped that the book will prove useful to all those interested in promoting the cause of IPM in formal and informal applications in both developed and developing countries, so that sustainability in agricultural systems and environmental protection for future generations are achieved.
