Pest Information Markets and Integrated Pest Management [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural and Applied Economics, 1981
Integrated pest management (IPM) programs vary from employing field scouts to planting trap crops, as inputs in production, to control crop losses. Scouts provide pest information, helping to determine the need for pesticide applications. This increased information may indicate a reduction of periodic application, which would diminish the negative ...
