Can anyone share the process for integrated pest management? - Sargin - 06-20-2024
How effective is integrated pest management (IPM) in reducing pesticides while keeping crops healthy? I'm wondering which methods work best in different farms and how farmers manage them. Any tips or experiences with IPM?"

Integrated Pest Management (IPM) effectively reduces pesticides and keeps crops healthy by using methods like crop rotation, natural predators, and pest-resistant plants. Key to success is regular monitoring and adjusting your approach as needed. On my farm, traps and beneficial insects have worked well.
