Eco-Friendly Pest Management in Vegetable Crops through Botanicals

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Integrated pest management (IPM) is a comprehensive and sustainable approach for managing pests in agriculture. It incorporates various techniques, including cultural, biological, physical, and chemical methods, to keep pest populations below economically harmful levels while minimizing environmental harm. One eco-friendly and effective element of IPM is the use of botanicals, which are plant derived compounds with pesticidal properties. In vegetable crop production, botanicals serve as a natural alternative to synthetic chemical pesticides, supporting both pest control and ecosystem health.
