Integrated pest management strategies combine information from all applicable monitoring tools to make well-informed decisions about pest control methods. By using a combination of methods, farmers can accurately assess pest pressure, take timely interventions and minimize the use of chemical pesticides while maintaining crop productivity and environmental sustainability.
