description |
The conventional approach to pest management has been to treat a crop or commodity
on an individual management unit basis before an economically damaging
infestation of the pest develops. While there have been many successes at managing
pests using the individual management unit approach, especially when an integrated
pest management approach is used, it is recognized that management could sometimes
be more effective if the pest was suppressed over a broad spatial area (larger
than an individual management unit). That is the essence of the areawide pest management
(AWPM) approach. AWPM contrasts with conventional pest management
in that management tactics are applied over a broad spatial area, often treating the
whole area simultaneously, to maintain the pest below economic levels or, in some
cases, to completely eradicate it.
The number of pest management programmes that can be classified as AWPM
has increased dramatically over the last decade. AWPM has potential advantages
over the conventional approach: suppression across a broad area may result in
reduced reinfestation by migration from unmanaged areas into previously treated
areas, and the pest management tactics employed may be more effective – particularly
ecologically based tactics – when applied areawide.
The purpose of this book is threefold. The first is to lay out the historical underpinnings
of AWPM and to highlight current activity in the field. In 1993, the
USDA-Agricultural Research Service in concert with a USDA IPM Working Group
developed a partnership framework for a national AWPM initiative that would
include the federal, state and private sectors as partners. The introductory chapter of
this book is written by Dr Robert Faust, USDA-ARS, who has served as National
Program Leader for AWPM programmes since initiation of the national initiative
and who elegantly accomplishes the first objective and lays the groundwork for the
rest of the book. |
