It is an edited book with chapters written by multi-disciplinary
specialists in their specific subject areas. It covers development
of IPM components and packaging them for individual vegetable crops
specifically targeted to tropical countries. Scientific background
for IPM components or tactics will be included. There will be case
studies of IPM packages developed and implemented in different
countries. The concept of IPM has been in existence for the past
six decades; however, a practical holistic program has not been
developed and implemented for vegetable crops, in the developing
countries. Currently the IPM adoption rate in the tropics is
minimal and there is a need for implementation of IPM technologies
that are environmentally safe, economical, and socially acceptable.
We believe that adoption and implementation of IPM provided in this
book will lead to significant reduction in crop losses and mitigate
adverse impacts of pesticide use in the tropics. This book is an
outcome 20 years of research, development and implementation of the
IPM CRSP, a project supported by USAID and administered by Virginia
Tech in several developing countries along the tropical belt in
Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean.
