The techniques of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) and Total Crop Management
(TCM) offer a practical way for growers to maintain profitable crop production
while effectively managing pests. Growers who practice IPM manage their
crops by assessing pest problems and utilizing many different management
options - cultural, physical, mechanical, chemical and biological. Regular
crop inspection can alert growers to developing pest and cultural problems
while they are still minor and can be easily manged. Early detection and
intervention is the foundation of any IPM program. The following fact
sheets provide information to better manage pests on floriculture crops.
Current pesticide and integrated pest management recommendations can
