This book integrates soil health and sustainable agriculture with nematode ecology and suppressive services provided by the soil food web to provide holistic solutions. Biological control is an important component of all nematode management programmes, and with a particular focus on integrated soil biology management, this book describes tools available to farmers to enhance the activity of natural enemies, and utilize soil biological processes to reduce losses from nematodes.Plant nematodesSoil managementSoil managementPlant nematodesSoil management.Soil management.632.6257Stirling Graham R.1267028Cutts RachelTsitlidze LauraMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910627285203321Biological control of plant-parasitic nematodes2978902UNINA
