This manual from the University of California Statewide IPM Project is the first comprehensive, practical field guide ever developed for setting up and carrying out an IPM program in any type of crop or landscape.

IPM in Practice features IPM strategies for weed, insect, pathogen, nematode, and vertebrate pests; provides specific information on how to set up sampling and monitoring programs in the field. Covers methods applicable to vegetable, field, and tree cops as well as landscape and urban situations.

Illustrated with more than 300 photographs, line drawings, tables, and sidebars; this is an essential addition to the library of any pest mangement professional, student, or instructor.

". . . perhaps the most practical offering to date--provides a highly comprehensive, eminently cogent, down-to-earth guide to field monitoring and pest management decision making." -- IPMnet News
