North Dakota State University NDSU Extension Service Integrated Pest Management in North Dakota PP-863 , February 1999 Janet J. Knodel , Crop Protection Specialist, North Central Research Extension Center Marcia P. McMullen , Extension IPM Coordinator, Department of Plant Pathology What is IPM? IPM stands for Integrated Pest Management. The definition of IPM from the National IPM Network is "IPM is a sustainable approach to managing pests by combining biological, cultural, physical and chemical tools in a way that minimizes economic, health and environmental risks." Integrated Pest Management (IPM) affects North Dakota's largest industry, agriculture. One of the primary missions of IPM is to help growers produce profitable crops using environmentally and economically sound approaches. These IPM tools contribute to a system that produces high-quality, safe, and affordable foods and other agriculturally related products. For many growers, IPM helps balance pest management with profitable crop production and environmental protection. IPM also reaches beyond agriculture to include pest management in landscape and home settings. Strategies of IPM: How can IPM help produce a profitable crop?

Advocates of IPM recognize that reliance on any single form of pest management does not provide optimal results. Adoption of multiple pest management methods and judicious use of pesticides often results in overall reduction in the total amount of pesticide applied. In some cases, increased pesticide ap-plications may be attributed to increased awareness of pest problems identified through IPM monitoring and scouting techniques. In these situations, IPM methods improve groundwater protection through improved timing, efficiency, and appropriateness of the pesticide applications. Detailed discussion of best management practice (BMP) implementation for integrated pest management is found in the references at the end of this fact-sheet. Each reference title includes the source of information and the related BMP numbers. BMPs 1. Plant pest-resistant cultivars if available.

The strategy for controlling major pests, and the role of insecticides in an IPM strategy are discussed. The rates of adoption of IPM and the reasons for differences in these rates are presented. Introduction Integrated Pest Management is a means of controlling pests without relying totally on chemical insecticides. It has been developed for potato crops in Australia over the past few years and is being used successfully by growers in many different parts of Australia. For many years the main approach potato farmers (and others) used to control pests consisted of either regular, routine and frequent applications of insecticide or else waiting until there was a problem and then attempting to eradicate the pest concerned. The approach that IPM takes is to look carefully for pests throughout the season and make decisions on what to do, based on the monitoring results. In an IPM crop, low numbers of pests are more likely to be found simply because someone is looking. However, high numbers of pests should be less likely because the problems are dealt with early, and in a way that does not cause an increase in numbers of other pests.

ISSN: 1063-262X Integrated Pest Management- Biological Control: Natural Enemies AFSIC Notes no. 3 March 1992 Prepared By: Jane Potter Gates, Coordinator Alternative Farming Systems Information Center , Information Centers Branch National Agricultural Library, Agricultural Research Service, U. S. Department of Agriculture Beltsville, Maryland 20705-2351 Deflnition and History Integrated pest management (IPM) is an ecologically based, environmentally conscious method that combines, or integrates, biological and nonbiological control techniques to suppress weeds, insects, and diseases ("Integrated Pest Management Systems: Protecting Profits and the Environment", by Raymond E. Frisbee and John M. Luna, Farm Management : The 1989 Yearbook of Agriculture , p 226. NAL Call No. lAg84y 1989). Interest in developing IPM into crop management systems began in the 1960s. Credit for the IPM concept is given to Dr. Roy F. Smith and Dr. Harold T. Reynolds, of the University of California (op.cit.) Integration of multiple pest suppression techniques has the highest probability of sustaining long-term crop protection ("Integrated Pest Management, a Sustainable Technology", by T.J. Henneberry et.al, Agriculture and the Environment: The 1991 Yearbook of Agriculture , p 151. NAL Call No. lAg84y 1991). An array of technologies and data analysis procedures have been developed about those strategies and tactics most appropriate for use in implementing specific IPM systems. These include economic thresholds, sampling technology, modeling, natural controls, geographic distribution, effects of pest migration and movement, host resistance, and pesticides (op.cit., p 152).

Climate Change INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT IN THE ATLANTIC REGION WHAT IS IPM? Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is a holistic approach to pest control that uses ail available methods in an attempt to keep pest populations below damaging levels. The guiding principle of IPM is that active pest control is only undertaken when pest populations are at , or near, "economic thresholds" which may threaten a crop's commercial value. The concept of IPM is not new in Atlantic Canada. In fact, IPM was first developed in Nova Scotian apple orchards during the 1940's. Since those pioneering efforts, IPM has expanded to many crops and regions worldwide. The use of IPM continues to grow in Atlantic Canada through government research and extension projects, through private pest management contracts, and through the efforts of individual growers and crop associations. ELEMENTS OF A IPM PROGRAM Techniques employed in an IPM system (as defined through a national poll by the Pest Management Advisory Board) may include: Planning and managing production systems to prevent organisms from becoming pests.

91. Integrated Pest Management - Insects The concept of integrated pest management of insects contains three basic elements . Since the pest status is determined by both insect and crop, http://highplainsipm.org/HpIPMSearch/Docs/IPM.htm

Integrated Pest Management Insects The concept of integrated pest management of insects contains three basic elements. These include: maintaining insect populations below levels that cause economic damage, the use of multiple tactics to manage insect populations, and the conservation of environmental quality. The objective of insect pest management is to manage insect populations to reduce pest status to a tolerable level. Reducing the insect pest status means that the presence of insect pests should be expected but at levels that will not cause economic damage. Complete elimination of a pest may not be feasible or even desirable. The acceptance of pest presence sets pest management apart from many other approaches to pest control. Conservation of environmental quality (air, water, soil, wildlife, and plant life) is an important element of integrated pest management. Practices that maintain environmental quality can conserve natural enemies that may help lower the pest status of target insects. Pest management tactics that minimize environmental impact will contribute to the stability of agricultural systems. Pest Management Tactics Pest management tactics are the actual practices or tools used to lower the pest status of an insect. The most common tactics used for insect control are insecticidal chemicals and cultural practices. Many different insecticides exist with several modes of action. Insecticides have the ability to inflict high mortality quickly, and are the most common and effective form of rescue treatment. These chemicals vary in toxicity to humans or other animals, and also in their potential impact on the environment.

Coli IPM Coordinator University of Massachusetts Amherst, Massachusetts Internet address: wcoli@umext.umass.edu In a general sense, integrated pest management (IPM) can be defined as a systematic approach to pest management that considers all factors affecting crop health, including plant nutrition, horticultural practices, and all suitable means of pest suppression. Pest management tactics may include biological, chemical, mechanical, and cultural methods, but different tactics are often required for different crops, pests and climatic situations. Given these broadly defined and variable characteristics, growers and Extension specialists have been heard to state that the practice of IPM cannot be defined or measured. A new publication provides a means to measure the relative adoption of IPM. "The Massachusetts IPM Guidelines: Crop Specific Definitions" are a series of research-based best management practices encompassing soil and nutrient management; cultural practices; pesticide application techniques, record-keeping, tactics for insect, disease, and weed management; and grower education. Specific practices are assigned points based on their importance to an IPM system. Bonus points are given for experimental techniques. Some advantages of the point system are:

DRAFT Integrated Pest Management Plan for Lower Klamath and Tule Lake NWRs May 1997 II. Integrated Pest Management A. IPM Definitions and Concepts There are many definitions of integrated pest management (IPM). To proceed with an IPM Plan, a common definition or set of concepts was needed by principal participants in the planning process. This common set of concepts is presented below: IPM treats pests as part of a crop production system that includes not only the crop and its pests, but also the crop's entire physical setting. A good IPM program coordinates pest management activities with each other and with production methods to reach cost-saving, long-lasting solutions to pest problems. The emphasis is on knowing about and preventing problems before they occur. An IPM program does not eliminate use of pesticides, but attempts to use them as a last line of defense against pests, not as the first option for control. In practice, a grower will use several pest controls based on knowledge of the crop, pests, and pests' natural enemies to avoid crop loss and minimize harmful effects on natural resources. A successful IPM program on the national wildlife refuge leased lands will involve control of pests by the following: Identifying pests and their natural enemies;

COOPERATIVE EXTENSION SERVICE Choosing the most efficient, environmentally friendly, and cost effective approach towards pest control IPM/PAT Newsletter Pest information Agricultural Experiment Station Research and Public Service UVI The tropical climate of the Virgin Islands provides suitable environmental conditions for year-round activity of many pest species. PLANT DISEASES The nearly continuous easterly tradewinds ensure quick drying of plant surfaces. Therefore, exposing as much of the foliage within a plant's canopy to air currents through selective pruning and adequate plant spacing will minimize infection periods for plant-disease organisms. Disease incidence and severity can thereby be greatly reduced. INSECT PESTS Insects and other arthropod pests can become serious problems for plants, animals as well as man rather quickly. Regular inspection of plants, animals and structures is often essential in avoiding economic damage by pest species. Recognizing the pest problem* is the first major step in preventing further unwanted effects of the pests and control. The geographical isolation of the Virgin Islands prevents the constant invasion by new pest species. Nevertheless, through various means including sporadic strong cross-atlantic air currents, new insect species may occasionaly reach the islands. A number of desert locusts (

The use of pesticides was an important part of the "Green Revolution," the movement that changed modern agriculture. Poisons can kill crop-eating insects, unwanted plants and harmful fungi. But these chemicals can also spread into the environment and kill helpful organisms. Integrated pest management looks for a combination of methods to solve problems or prevent them.
