This study shows how to navigate the diversity of options presented in current ecological theory by developing the first general model of the entomological research requirements of Integrated Pest Management (IPM). The book includes practical advice on understanding and investigating species; examines the ecological problems associated with polyphagous pests and beneficial species; and scrutinizes ways suggested to improve insect biological control. It is an important resource for graduate students and researchers in IPM, insect pest management, entomology, ecology and crop protection.



• Examines how information is best obtained for the applied science of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) • Provides first model relating insect ecology research needs to the structure of IPM systems, allowing more effective research and pest control practice • Provides practical help and case studies as well as principles and theory
