What is IPM?
IPM or Integrated Pest Management is a strategy of managing pests
that is designed to meet an individuals production goals in the
most economically and environmentally sound manner possible using
a combination of control tactics.
IPM is a systematic, information-intensive approach which depends
upon an understanding of the entire production system. It strives
to use several complimentary tactics or control methods to manage
pests which makes the system more stable and subject to less production
risks. IPM focuses on tactics that will prevent or avoid anticipated
pest problems rather than remediate problems once they occur.
