Integrated pest management
(Redirected from Integrated Pest Management)
In agriculture, Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is a pest control strategy. This strategy uses many different ways to deal with pests: natural predators and parasites, pest-resistant varieties of plants, cultural practices, biological controls, various physical techniques, and pesticides as a last resort.
It is an ecological approach that can reduce or eliminate the use of pesticides.
