Vegetables are important source of dietary fibers, minerals,
antioxidants and vitamins. Shifting from a non-vegetarian diet to
vegetarian, global recognition of the importance of vegetables for
human health and their medicinal and nutritional value have
contributed to a steady upward trend in vegetable production
system. China is ranked first in the world and currently produces
around 237 million tons of vegetable. The total vegetable
production of India during the year 2009-10 was approximately 90
million tons. Pesticides are valuable tools in sustainable
vegetable production, but unfortunately they are often being used
irresponsibly, causing hazards to producers, consumers and the
environment. In addition, they can exacerbate pests and diseases
problems by inducing resistance and suppressing the natural enemies
which exert natural biological control. This book aims to promoting
an integration of appropriate chemical, cultural, physical, genetic
and biological technologies into Integrated Pest Management (IPM)
strategies for vegetable crop protection.
