Pests are herbivorous insects causing serious economic damage to crops and posing a serious challenge to sustainable agriculture across the globe. To combat this menace, farmers resolve to chemical means of control. These pesticides cause an ecological imbalance, poison the food and the environment. The insects tend to develop resistance against such chemical pesticides.

Old Farmers used to integrate other means to solve the same problem, which were quite unscientific.

Different Components of pest management were integrated in a scientific way to check the pest level and maintain it below the economic injury in Integrated Pest Management.

This course discusses categories of insects based on various parameters, survey pests and method used in the survey and its applications. The course will proceed to explain the principles of pest management and Integrated Pest Management System, components of pest management and integration tactics and end with examples of successful IPM techniques in India.

I recently completed the Integrated Pest Management course on YouTube, and I must say, it was an incredibly informative experience. The course covered a wide range of topics, including pest identification, understanding pest life cycles, and the various strategies involved in managing pests sustainably.

The instructors were knowledgeable and presented the material clearly, making complex concepts easy to understand. I particularly appreciated the real-world examples they provided, which helped illustrate how IPM practices can be applied in different agricultural settings. The visuals, including diagrams and videos of pests in action, enhanced the learning experience.

One of the highlights of the course was the emphasis on using ecological principles to manage pests, reducing the reliance on chemical pesticides. The discussions on monitoring and using biological control methods were enlightening and provided practical tools for implementation.

Additionally, the interactive quizzes and discussion prompts at the end of each module kept me engaged and allowed me to test my understanding of the material.

Overall, I highly recommend this Integrated Pest Management course for anyone interested in sustainable agriculture or pest management. It offers valuable insights and practical strategies that can be applied immediately. Whether you're a beginner or have some experience in the field, this course is definitely worth your time!

The course is incredibly helpful and efficient, covering all key aspects of IPM in a way that's easy to understand and apply. The materials are well-organized, and the instructors present practical, sustainable solutions for managing pests with minimal environmental impact. I found the content both insightful and relevant, giving me a strong foundation to use IPM strategies in real-life agricultural practices. Highly recommended for anyone seeking effective, eco-friendly pest management knowledge!

This course was very, very interesting. I learned a lot about integrated pest management.
The IPM method is very essential for the efficient management of insect pests. This avoids insect resistance mechanisms, environmental pollution, ecosystem destruction, soil pullition and the destruction of natural enemies.

This course has widened my knowledge on Pest Management Principles.It has added on the material I covered on Agricultural Entomology and Pest Management which I learnt at my first and second year respectively in my current programme of study.
Cedric Buchler

What i found most helpful is how the ecological and behavioural helps you understand what insects are you working with the impact of such insect and how they behave. What insecticide to use and how much insecticide to use this helps the with the restriction of insecticides and the impact it has on the the environment.

As I am a 3 rd yr student, I have studied this perticular topic in my curriculum, whether it's IPM, IDM, Or INM.
And I think this should be added to main stream as sustainable development and protection of nature is important.
