Integrated Pest Management - Dissemination and Impact, Volume 2 is
a sequel to Integrated Pest Management -
Innovation-DevelopmentProcess, Volume 1. The book focuses on the
IPM systems in the developed countries of North America, Europe and
Australia, and the developing countries of Asia, Latin America and
Africa. One of the major impedimentsin the dissemination and
adoption of the IPM innovation is the complexity of the technology
and reaching the vast population of farmers especially in the
developing countries. The IPM-innovation development process is
incomplete without the diffusion and adoption of IPM methods by the
end users, and through its consequences. In spite of all the
efforts in the developed and developing countries, the adoption of
IPM is still low with few exceptions. The book covers the
underlying concepts and methodologies of the diffusion of
innovation theory and the program evaluation; and reviews the
progress and impact of IPM programs implemented in the
industrialized, the green revolution and the subsistence
agricultural systems of the world. Forty-four experts from
entomology, plant pathology, environmental science, agronomy,
anthropology, economics and extensioneducationfromAfrica, Asia,
Australia, Europe, NorthAmerica and South America have discussed
impact of IPM with an interdisciplinary perspective. Each one of
the experts is an authority in his or her eld of expertise. The
