Extract
A considerable amount of scientific time has been spent defining Integrated Pest Management (IPM). The following is quoted from an Extension Committee on Organization and Policy publication (4): “Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is a system that utilizes all suitable pest control techniques and methods to keep pest populations below economically injurious levels. Each pest control technique must be environmentally sound and compatible with production and user objectives. Integrated Pest Management is more than chemical pesticide management. In many cases it includes biological, cultural, and sanitary control practices for all pest complexes.”
