Philippines. Integrated Pest Management (IPM)

Field monitoring activities can be done in small groups. The groups develop an agroecosystem drawing that is used for analysis related to plant growth, agronomy, crop field, ecological issues and decision making. - - Integrated Pest Management (IPM) for Rice: GCP/RAS/145/NET. Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is a technique by which farmers encourage the natural enemies of the pests attacking their crops. These enemies, such as wasps and spiders, then help eliminate the pests, reducing the need for pesticides which not only burden the farmer and nation financially but endanger farm worker's and health environment. In this case IPM is being used on rice production.
