About this product

Product Information

This text adapts scientifically based integrated pest management techniques to the needs of the home gardener and small-scale farmer. Featuring more than 250 colour photographs of pests and crops, and more than 100 drawings, the text should enable readers to identify pests quickly - and to prevent, correct, or live with most common pest problems. Crop tables at the end of the book describe major pests on 30 vegetable and fruit tree crops and refer readers to specific pages for more detail. The book's approach minimizes the use of broad spectrum pesticides, relying primarily on alternatives such as: biological control; resistant varieties; traps and barriers; less toxic pesticides such as soaps, oils, and microbials; changing planting, irrigation, or cultivating procedures; and other preventative measures.
