Extractions: The aim of the IPM program is to teach New Hampshire farmers to handle pest problems while reducing growers' use of chemical pesticides, minimizing crop production costs, and maintaining crop quality and yield. Insects, pathogens, weeds and other pests are a constant threat for NH farmers and greenhouse operators. For many crops, the marketplace tolerates very little or no pest injury. Since 1945, chemical pesticides have offered easy solutions to pest problems, and growers have over-used them, with resultant higher costs and potential environmental harm or health risks. Reducing this over-use of pesticides can improve farm profitability and also improve long term sustainability of farming in NH.

IPM is a balanced approach to pest management which incorporates the many aspects of plant health care/crop protection in ways that mitigate harmful environmental impacts and protect human health. Some of the IPM program activities include generating IPM information, via newsletters, for growers, producers and land managers which inform them of relevant issues and can help them make alternative choices in their pest management decisions; developing an IPM in Schools program to educate school districts on IPM and how to implement its use; providing funding for IPM research; and providing IPM information to the general public.

Extractions: PRODUCTION OF VEGETABLES AND MEDICINAL PLANTS OBJECTIVES: (1) Determine the plant damage/insect density relationships for major insect pests of vegetables and medicinal plants. (2) Identify and assess impact of indigenous and exotic beneficial species of arthropods and entomopathogens. (3) Test alternatives to chemical insecticides; e.g., plant derived compounds, molting inhibitors, microorganisms, etc. (4) Develop economical and efficient field sampling techniques. (5) Design and test ecologically-compatible IPM programs. APPROACH: Natural populations of insect pests and those confined to field cages will be used to establish insect density/damage relationships in vegetables and medicinal plants. Chemical pesticides will be used to manipulate insect pest populations. The impact of beneficial species will be determined using standard techniques including barriers and other exclusions, insecticides and correlation methods. Plant derived compounds will be applied to field plots and compared with standard chemical treatments. Field sampling will include sequential sampling approaches compared to more conventional techniques. All information obtained from carrying out the objectives will be incorporated and tested in pilot IPM programs in farmers' fields.

http://www.nass.usda.gov/mt/pressrls/crops/ipm2001.htm

Extractions: The Pest Management Practices 2000 Summary is based largely on data compiled from a nationwide farmer survey conducted in February 2001. Results refer to responses from sampled producers concerning specific practices. The producers were first asked how many acres of a specific commodity they grew in 2000, followed by questions regarding the use of specific pest management practices, in a yes/no format. Pests were defined as weeds, insects, and diseases. If the respondent used a specific practice on a crop, it was assumed that the practice was used on all acres of that crop. For example, if a producer had 500 acres of wheat, and used field mapping of previous weed problems to assist in making weed management decisions, it was assumed that all 500 acres were mapped. The data are published in two tables for each crop: percent of acres receiving the specific pest management practice and percent of farms using the specific pest management practice. These percentages are published at the U.S. and regional levels. For barley, corn, soybeans, wheat, fruits and nuts, vegetables, and all other crops, the percentages refer only to farms and planted acres. For alfalfa hay and other hay, the percentages refer to farms and harvested acres. The complete report is available from our office or in the national release located on the Internet at www.usda.gov/nass/pubs/rptscal.htm.

Extractions: INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT RESEARCH AUSTIN Agriculture Commissioner Susan Combs announced today that the Texas Department of Agriculture has awarded $300,000 to allow 26 projects to conduct research into integrated pest management techniques that help producers use alternative methods of farming, such as biological insects and adjusted planting dates, to control insects, plant diseases and weeds. "As many commodity prices continue to be low, Texas farmers welcome ways offered by integrated pest management techniques to reduce their production costs through the use of less pesticides and other inputs," Combs said. "This years grant projects will affect a wide spectrum of crops grown across Texas, from traditional commodities such as cotton, corn and sorghum, to new alternative crops like sunflowers." Integrated pest management is a farming system that curbs pest populations by using a variety of practices including biological pest controls, pest-resistant crop plants, crop rotations, planting date adjustments and crop residue destruction. Under IPM, pesticides are used only when IPM methods fail to control problems that threaten to cause significant crop damage.

Extractions: Summer 1995 (v7n3) Integrating cover crops into grapevine pest and nutrition management: The transition phase. Rachid Hanna, Frank G. Zalom, and Clyde L. Elmore Article written for Sustainable Agriculture Technical Reviews. 1995 The research reported in this article assessed the value of cover crops in vineyard pest and nutrition management. Four experiments helped us determine the effect of various vineyard floor management systems on: 1) two species of leafhoppers, the variegated grape leafhopper (Erythroneura variabilis Beamer), and the western grape leafhopper (Erythroneura elegantula Osborn), which are major pests of grapevines in the San Joaquin Valley (Flaherty et al., 1992); 2) weed suppression and the need for soil-applied herbicides; 3) vine-nutrient status and the need for synthetic nitrogen fertilizer; and 4) vine growth, and grape yield and quality. We also developed a partial budget for each system. Fowler and Earlimart sites Insecticide and miticide use differed between the Fowler and Earlimart sites. At the Fowler site, a low rate of Omite (two pounds per acre) was applied on 14 June, 1993 to control an outbreak of Pacific spider mite (Tetranychus pacificus McGregor). No other miticides or insecticides were applied for leafhopper and mite control at any other time during the experiment. At the Earlimart site, Pyrenone was applied in late May 1992 and 1993, and Lannate was applied in mid-August 1993, despite low numbers of leafhoppers. In 1994, the vineyard operator withheld insecticide applications for leafhopper control. Miticides were not used at any time during the experiments at the Earlimart site, where spider mites generally occurred in low densities.

http://www.vedamsbooks.com/no9014.htm

Extractions: 1994, xiv, 350 p., figs., Contents: "The changing agricultural scenario and availability of the potent chemical pesticides revealed the limiting role of plant parasitic nematodes in crop production. Encounters of nematode problems in different economic crops in India and the sustained yield losses stimulated development of the comparatively new and young science of nematology from sixties onwards. Since then considerable research work in the applied field has been done by different centres in the country. Therefore, a lust for better documentation of the information available for nematode pest management led to bring out the book Nematode Pest Management in Crops "This book contains twenty four chapters written by eminent nematologists of the country with due consideration to the requirements of the students, teachers, researchers and extension workers of the discipline. The first introductory chapter does give an overview of the book and mention the sequential importance, linkage and necessity of up-to-date contents of the chapters. Advanced basic information in tune with postgraduate teaching courses and requirements of researchers involved in evolving nematode control technologies, has been gathered so as to enable them to have directed approaches in tapping research areas which can really pay dividends for integrated nematode management. "The first part of the book deals in detail with the information about taxonomy, biology, ecology, physiology and biochemistry of host-parasite relationships. It is followed by principles and practices for nematode pest management with strategies such as chemical, cultural, physical, genetical, biological, organic amendments of soil, allelopathic and legal. More emphasis has been laid on non-chemical methods. In the last chapter, present trends and futuristic approaches of nematode management have been projected. The socio-economic considerations of the growers, safety of the environment, sustainability of the fast developing agricultural scenario and pragmatism constitute the corner-stone of this book. The prodigy of the book is that it documents researches done in nematological applied field in India in comparison with selective research work done abroad." (jacket)
