| Abstract
|
Pests, plant diseases and weed infestation have caused crop losses or threatened human livelihoods since the dawn of agriculture. Based on traditional and often holistic approaches, as in India, farmers have developed a wide range and huge variety of concepts and techniques at
different levels, arising from an understanding of the natural sciences that govern pest organisms and plant health. These approaches led to the use of Integrated Pest Management (IPM).
Various permutations of this concept have been incorporated into everyday practice in developing countries, and it is constantly evolving.
