INTEGRATED PEST MGMT OF VEGETA

The book Integrated Pest Management of Vegetable Crops offers a comprehensive overview of global IPM initiatives and evaluates various IPM programs. Despite the widespread use of IPM practices, there has been a lack of adoption and diffusion from the research sub-system to farmers. Furthermore, there is no consensus on the methodological aspects of impact evaluation and dissemination of IPM programs/practices.
The book delves into topics such as integrated pest management of vegetables, pesticide use, and the robust methodological aspects of impact evaluation. Additionally, it assesses the impact evaluation of vegetable IPM programs and identifies factors that influence the adoption of IPM practices.
This book is a valuable resource for agencies involved in the formulation and implementation of IPM programs, as well as professionals, investigators, and academia. At the post-graduate level, students will find the book to be a useful guide for planning and conducting future research on IPM diffusion and impact analysis.
