Integrated Pest Management for Vegetable Gardens Contact: Tony Bratch, Extension specialist, Vegetables and Specialty Crops; Virginia Tech Publication Number 426-708, Revised January 2005 Integrated Pest Management Ideas for Vegetable Gardens The best way to control insects and disease problems is to prevent them before they get a foothold in your garden. Soil Preparation Maintain a slightly acid soil (around pH 6.5). If in doubt, have a soil analysis done through your local Extension office, by a private lab, or with a commercial soil test kit. Lime can be used to increase soil pH and sulfur can lower it. Maintain adequate levels of soil fertility through additions of potassium and phosphorus releasing materials, such as commercial fertilizers or animal manures. Soil testing should be done every three years to determine levels of these important nutrients. Build a biologically active, healthy soil through regular addition of organic matter, such as yard waste, compost, and manure. For planting areas not being cropped, grow annual cover crops, such as clover or rye grass, to provide additional organic matter. Till the soil in the fall to expose pests living near the surface to natural enemies and weather, and to destroy insects overwintering in crop residues.

Alfalfa - Integrated Pest Management Author: Peter Warren Publication Number 444-120w; Posted June 2001 Alfalfa Weevil In the late fall, remove the alfalfa for hay or by grazing. This removes the overwintering and egg laying sites used by the adult weevils, reducing the number of alfalfa weevil larvae in the spring. Early harvest can sometimes be used in the spring instead of insecticide sprays, if the crop has obtained sufficient growth before larval feeding damage becomes severe. Walk through fields once a week in the spring when growth starts and inspect tips for feeding injury. When feeding damage and weevil larvae are observed, systematic sampling should be conducted weekly (more often if weevil levels are approaching threshold) until fields are harvested, sprayed, or weevil season is over. See sampling method details in the Field Crops PMG (456-016). Harvesting early can be used as an effective control tactic if enough growth is present to justify the harvesting process. Yield sacrificed in the first cutting by harvesting early will be compensated for in subsequent cuttings and allow the second growth a head start before potato leafhopper adults appear in early June. If hay is cut to allow adequate storage of root carbohydrates. Alfalfa may be harvested early only once during the growing season without reducing stand density or longevity. If no sprays have been used, or if the field has been cut early because of a heavy weevil infestation, stubble sprays may be necessary. No formal sampling or economic thresholds are available for this crop stage, but if weevil larvae are easily found, shoot damage is occurring, or regrowth appears delayed, a stubble spray should be applied.

With IPM, the term "treatment" does not always imply the use of a chemical control. Non-chemical pest control strategies include cultural, mechanical, and biology controls as well as good sanitary practices. Most of these controls are used as preventive measures in an attempt to help keep pests below critical levels. However, certain conditions can still allow a pest population to build up to injurious levels. If this should occur, a rescue treatment can be used to reduce the population of the pest and rescue the crop. At the heart of IPM is the understanding that many crops can tolerate a certain amount of pest damage. As a result, a rescue treatment is not needed until the pest population reaches a critical level usually referred to as a threshold. In the home vegetable garden, this threshold may be economic, but is more likely to be aesthetic. A commercial grower' s produce must be blemish free (or nearly so) for fresh market. If a cabbage is found to have holes in the leaves from insect feeding, it will probably be culled or sold at a lower price, making the threshold economic. On the other hand, the threshold for home grown vegetables is often dependent on an individual gardener's tolerance to the damage.

Site Map Integrated Pest Management About PDF Documents Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is an effective and environmentally sensitive approach to pest management that relies on a combination of common-sense practices. IPM programs use current, comprehensive information on the life cycles of pests and their interaction with the environment. This information, in combination with available pest control methods, is used to manage pest damage by the most economical means, and with the least possible hazard to people, property, and the environment. Integrated pest management takes advantage of all appropriate pest management options, including the judicious use of pesticides. In contrast, organic food production applies many of the same concepts as IPM but limits the use of pesticides to those that are produced from natural sources, as opposed to synthetic chemicals.

Integrated Pest Management for Greenhouse Crops Water Management Guidelines for Nursery/Floral Producers Integrated pest management for greenhouse crops is complex, and each problem situation or production objective is accompanied by a wide range of potentially acceptable solutions. There are also a great many legal implications regarding the recommendations and use of any management tactic or pesticide product in accordance to instructions specified on the product's label. The user of any pesticide is always responsible for his or her own actions. The following are some general considerations for the development of an integrated pest management program for commercial production or maintenance systems: Determine Your Objective Pest management programs should be designed to meet a specific production objective. In greenhouse production, this objective is usually to produce pest and damage-free plants. However, in some situations, the objective may be to maintain healthy plants. This would allow for some tolerance of minor insect or mite pest damage. Additionally, a preference for the use of no or low-toxic pesticides may be desirable. This is particullarly important in regard to the potential contamination of surface and groundwater. Financial constraints also play a role in determining the overall objectives of an IPM program. All of these factors significantly effect the suppression tactics to be implemented. Sanitation Practices The first steps to take in a program to manage plant pests are preventative, and starting with a clean production area is essential. Greenhouses can be fumigated or otherwise treated prior to establishing a new crop to help eliminate pest problems from previous crops. However, where plants at different stages of growth or species are grown in the same area, treatment of pests is recommended prior to establishing the next crop. Elimination of weeds and other alternate hosts of plant pests will also help prevent problems on the new crop.

Top of page INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT (IPM) IN ORNAMENTAL CROPS Growers and retailers are increasingly interested in reducing chemical usage on ornamental crops. In IPM programmes beneficial enemies (beneficial insects and mites) are used instead of chemicals where possible. Any introduction of natural enemies has to be carefully planned. Anticipated pests and diseases must be quantified. Close monitoring of pests is required on a regular basis. For specific information on biological control of individual pests FARGRO provide information in their IPM booklet Training Growers need to develop their skills in the identification of pests and beneficial insects for the system to work. 21 growers and their staff attended a course on IPM at Greenmount College in November 1998. The course helped growers improve their pest identification skills and choose chemicals that are compatible with natural enemies. Mr Neil Helyer, Integrated Pest Management Specialist presented examples of successful IPM in bedding and nursery crops. This course is organised subject to demand, for details

The reasons for beginning IPM and the major factors that have occurred during the five years are discussed. The changeover to using IPM was not made in one year, but the level of trust placed in IPM increased each year. Control of all pests is now achieved using IPM, and weekly monitoring is an essential part of our routine. Changed practices as a result of IPM include modifying our soil and irrigation management. The benefits include major savings on chemicals, and less hazards associated with insecticide handling. Introduction I have grown potatoes at Cora Lynn (near KooWeeRup) for many years, and until five years ago I relied on regular use of insecticides to get control of insect pests. I was keen to reduce the cost of production in an area that I could control. The contract or market prices were out of my control, as were most other factors of production (seed, fertiliser, water, transport etc). Looking at reducing the cost of pest control was something that was of interest but there was no way that I could compromise on quality or yield.
