Revolutionizing Pest Management: New Integrated Methods

AUTHOR Sabbour, Magda
PUBLISHER LAP Lambert Academic Publishing (07/08/2025)
PRODUCT TYPE Paperback (Paperback)

Description
Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is an environmentally sensitive approach to pest control that combines biological, cultural, mechanical, and chemical methods to minimize economic, health, and environmental risks. In recent years, innovative strategies have emerged to enhance the effectiveness and sustainability of IPM practices. These new approaches include the use of precision agriculture technologies, such as remote sensing and GPS-guided equipment, as well as the application of biological control agents like parasitoids, predators, and microbial pesticides. Advances in genetic engineering, including pest-resistant crop varieties and RNA interference (RNAi), are also reshaping IPM frameworks. Additionally, the integration of data analytics and artificial intelligence (AI) is enabling more accurate pest forecasting and targeted interventions. This paper explores these cutting-edge developments, evaluates their benefits and limitations, and discusses their potential to transform pest management into a more sustainable and resilient system.
