Abstract
Integrated Pest Management, commonly known as IPM, is an approach to pest and disease management based on the knowledge of disease and pest life cycles and their interaction with the environment. It uses this knowledge to provide disease or pest control by the most economical means, and with the least possible hazard to people and the environment. IPM takes advantage of all appropriate pest management options, both preventative and curative.
