Essay
Integrated Pest Management

There is no one best way to deal with pests in agriculture. Pesticides are commonly used, but
this may cause many problems. That’s way I feel that combining different management operations is
the most effective way to control pests.
First, the chemicals in pesticides may build as residues in the environment. This reduces the
quality of farm produce. As well, pests can gradually become resistant to pesticides. This means the
newer and sometimes stronger ones have to be developed. Some pesticides affect non target

animals such as fish and bees. This affects the natural balance.
To wipe out agricultural pests may be very expensive. Sometimes pests damage costs less
than the method of control.
Finally, understanding the ecology of the area helps a lot in pest control. Natural enemies can
be used to control a pest. Pesticides would be chosen that don’t affect the natural enemies.
Therefore, I think integrated pest management is a safe and more effective option in agriculture.
