Floricultural crops all over the world are challenged by a number
of insect and mite pests. The pest scenario is changing, and with
climate change the instances of new pest incidences have become a
more common problem. Like other crops, the intensive cultivation of
commercial flowers has accentuated pest problems, as farmers tend
to use more agricultural chemicals, which, in turn, increase the
problems of pesticide resistance, pest resurgence, and residues
leading to health hazards. This volume, Advances in Pest Management
in Commercial Flowers, looks at the major challenges and
improvements in this growing area today. It first provides an
informative overview of worldwide pests of important commercial
flowers. It explores a number of important issues in this area,
such as the role of climate change on insect pests of commercial
flowers and the synthetic chemicals and their possible harmful
effects on the environment.
