Such practices may actually cut grower profit due to the cost of specialists and related roles unnecessary pesticides, and have a negative impact on the environment. Sustainable Management globally who guide others in of Arthropod Pests of Tomato addresses that issue and provides insight into the proper, appropriate implementation and appropriate application of pesticides and integration of alternative pest management methods. use of pesticides The aim of IPM is to reduce pest populations to avoid damaging levels that cause yield or quality loss. The basis of good crop management decisions is a better understanding of the crop ecosystem, including the pests, their natural enemies, and the crop itself. This book provides a global overview of the biology and management of key arthropod pests of tomato, including arthropod-vectored diseases. It includes information that places tomato in terms of global food production and food security and includes in each pest chapter the predators and parasitoids that specifically have been found to have the greatest impact on reducing that particular pest. In-depth coverage of the development of resistance in tomato plants and the biotic and abiotic elicitors of resistance and detailed information about the sustainable management of tomato pests is also presented.
