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.

DACNET Status DACNET Project State SetUp Related Links ... Crops/Pests I ntegrated P est M anagement (IPM) is a pest management system designed to provide long-term management of pests,instead of temporarily eradicating them. It is the coordinated use of pest and environmental information with available pest control methods to prevent unacceptable levels of pest damage by the most economical means with the least possible hazard to people, property, and the environment. The main goal of IPM is to manage pests and the environment so as to balance costs, benefits, public health, and environmental quality. IPM systems use all available technical information on the pest and its interactions with the environment. IPM, is an ecological approach to suppressing pest populations in which all available necessary techniques are utilized in a unified program, so that pests are kept at acceptable levels in effective, economical and environmentally friendly ways. Because pest problems are often symptomatic of ecological imbalances, the goal is to attempt to plan and manage ecosystems to prevent organisms from becoming pests.

Tables include information on the newest biorational pesticides and biological control organisms. Go To Top General Greenhouse IPM Insects and diseases are a major challenge to greenhouse production. IPM is an important tool in the management of these pests. The primary goal of IPM is to optimize pest control in an economically and ecologically sound way. IPM involves the integration of cultural, physical, biological, and chemical practices to grow crops with minimal use of pesticides. Monitoring, sampling, and record keeping are used to determine when control options are needed to keep pests below an economically damaging threshold. Pest management, not eradication, is the goal of IPM.

The farm-level impacts of such crops on pesticide use, yields, and net returns vary with the crop and technology examined. Adoption of herbicide-tolerant cotton led to significant increases in yields and net returns, but was not associated with significant changes in herbicide use. On the other hand, increases in adoption of herbicide-tolerant soybeans led to small but significant increases in yields, no changes in net returns, and significant decreases in herbicide use. Adoption of Bt cotton in the Southeast significantly increased yields and net returns and significantly reduced insecticide use.

search our site home publications Pest Management in U.S. Agriculture Jorge Fernandez-Cornejo and Sharon Jans Agricultural Handbook No. (AH717) 84 pp, October 1999 This report describes the use of pest management practices, including integrated pest management (IPM), for major field crops and selected fruits and vegetables. The data came chiefly from the 1996 Agricultural Resource Management Study (ARMS) developed by USDA. Because different pest classes may dominate among different crops and regions, requiring different pest management techniques to control them, the extent of adoption of pest management practices varies widely. For example, insects are a major pest class in cotton production, while minor for soybeans. As insect management has a wider variety of nonchemical techniques than weed control, cotton growers are expected to be further ahead on the IPM continuum than soybean producers.

The pest management circulars do not include recommendations on current pesticide treatment available, since such information is provided in Ohio State University (OSU) Extension Bulletin No. 545 ( Insect Pests of Field Crops ), OSU Extension Bulletin No. 827 ( Corn and Soybean Field Guide ), and Info-Bug software generated fact sheets, which are updated periodically.

IPM targets optimization of net return in crop production while minimizing environmental impact. As a management practice, IPM decision making is based on information collected from the field in a systematic manner. As a result, IPM depends on field monitoring of pest populations and crop development which is often referred to as field scouting. Application of IPM procedures to soybean production may be executed by (1) growers scouting fields themselves, (2) contracting the services of a field scout or consultant, or (3) commercial ag service personnel including field scouting as part of their service to clients. IPM decision making may be done by anyone if procedures are clearly understood and field information is collected and recorded in an accurate and timely manner. Soybean IPM Program Features An IPM program applied to soybeans may include one or more of the following features: Early detection and identification of weeds that may influence the selection and application of post-emergence herbicides.

Request a copy from your local MCE Office. 2005 Pest Management Recommendations for Field Crops Online Interactive Search and Filter Tool This bulletin is divided into three sections - disease and nematode control, insect control, and weed control. The recommendations are listed according to crop and then pest. In the table of recommendations given under each crop, the pesticide recommendations are given in units (pints, pounds, and so forth) of commercial products. In most cases, the amount of active ingredient to be applied is given. This information will be useful if the pesticide is commercially available at different concentrations. If a pesticide concentration differs from that recommended, determine the amount of a given formulation you need to use to apply the pesticide at the recommended rate. For example, if the recommended rate is 1 pound of active ingredient, then you should use 2 pounds of a 50 percent, wettable-powder formulation. If the formulation is a liquid, you must know the pounds of active ingredient per gallon to make this calculation. To the best of our knowledge, all recommended rates in this publication are in accordance with those on the product labels. However, if there is disagreement between recommendations in this bulletin and what is stated on the label, always follow the label directions.
