Abstract

Integrated Pest Management (IPM) has evolved significantly, incorporating modern techniques to promote sustainable agricultural development. This approach minimizes the reliance on chemical pesticides, thereby reducing environmental impact and enhancing ecosystem health. Key modern techniques in IPM include the use of biological controls such as beneficial insects and microbial agents, cultural practices like crop rotation and intercropping, and the implementation of genetic methods including the development of pest-resistant crop varieties through traditional breeding and genetic engineering. Advances in technology, particularly precision agriculture and remote sensing, have further refined IPM by enabling real-time pest monitoring and targeted interventions. Additionally, pheromone traps and biopesticides have emerged as effective tools in pest control. The integration of these techniques not only mitigates pest damage but also supports biodiversity, soil health, and farmer livelihoods, thereby contributing to the broader goals of sustainable agricultural development. The continuous adaptation and adoption of modern IPM strategies are crucial for addressing the challenges posed by climate change and the growing global food demand.
