Full Description

This exam centers on the mechanisms of pest resistance and the implications for Integrated Pest Management strategies. Emphasis is placed on understanding resistance development and its impact on control methods.

Pest resistance is a major challenge within agricultural pest management, affecting crop yield and control efficacy. Understanding resistance mechanisms aids in the formulation of sustainable pest management strategies.

Candidates will articulate the biological and ecological principles behind resistance development, discussing strategies for managing resistance in pest populations.

The exam will also cover forecasting resistance issues and the importance of incorporating resistance management into an IPM framework.

Sample Questions

  • What are the main mechanisms of pest resistance to chemical control methods?
  • How can resistance management be effectively integrated into an IPM strategy?
