Miêu tả
Tóm tắt:This book deals with the kind of topics compiled on insect science and the way they have been arranged. These topics were presented at the International Confer ence on Insect Science, 14−17 February 2013 at Bengaluru, South India. The book addresses the topics of current and continuing significance. Also included in this book are areas in which effects of IPM on the environment, ecosystems and soci ety are highly impacted. Emphasis is given to the role of integrated pest manage ment (IPM), and new and evolving chemical and non-chemical pest suppression tools to reduce crop losses due to insect pests. An analysis is made of the current environmental problems associated with pesticide use and new insecticide mol ecules. The major objective of new branches in insect science has been to develop systems of pest management that optimize cost: benefit ratios on a long-term and sustainable basis for the farmer and the society at large. Thus, topics on insect science included in this book will be of tremendous benefit to farmers, policy makers, environmentalists, entomologists and agricultural scientists so that these could be further integrated into the entire crop production process...
