Implementation and Adoption of Integrated Pest Management Approaches in Latin America: Challenges and Potential

Abstract: Latin American countries present diverse agricultural systems, ranging from the subsistence agriculture in common property lands to large highly mechanized estates that produce crops for export. Despite this diversity, the adoption of integrated pest management (IPM) is commonly based on reducing the negative effect of pesticides on consumer health and on the environment. In most of Latin American countries, the agricultural sector is characterized by poor infrastructure in research and extension systems, a pu… Show more

“…IPM had defined in different ways in the past. Like "It entails pest management rather than mere pest control and encompasses a multifaceted approach, encompassing factors like plant nutrition, physiology, resistance, and economic considerations" (Colmenarez et al, 2016). The U.S. Department of Agriculture originally defined Integrated Pest Management (IPM) as a sciencebased decision-making framework with a historical foundation, aimed at minimizing and pinpointing pest risks along with related policies (Stern et al, 1959).…”

“…This paradigm is known as IPM technology because its approach is oriented toward pest control technology; and (e) ecology-based IPM is driven by the development and application of IPM based on the understanding of the local ecology of pests and farmer empowerment so that pest control is adapted to the problems that exist in each location (local specific). Farmers are the main determinants and implementers of IPM at the field level [5,6].…”
