It discusses the use of ecologically based management strategies to increase the sustainability of agricultural production while reducing off-site consequences, highlighting the underlying principles and outlining some of the key management practices and technologies required to implement agro-ecological pest management. It also comprehensively explores important topics like stimulo-deterrent diversion strategy, precision agriculture, plant breeding, nutrient management, habitat management, cultural approaches, cultivar mixtures/multiline cultivars, crop rotation, crop residue management, crop diversity, cover crops, conservation tillage, biofumigation, agro-forestry, and addition of organic matter. This timely book promotes the rapid implementation of this technology in farming community around the globe. It is a valuable resource for the scientific community involved in teaching, research and extension activities related to agro-ecological pest management as well as policymakers and practicing farmers. It can also be used for teaching post-graduate courses. 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aPlant diseases 606 $aSustainable development 606 $aPlant physiology 606 $aPlant ecology 606 $aAgriculture$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L11006 606 $aPlant Pathology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24035 606 $aSustainable Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U34000 606 $aPlant Physiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L33020 606 $aPlant Ecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19112 615 0$aAgriculture. 615 0$aPlant diseases. 615 0$aSustainable development. 615 0$aPlant physiology. 615 0$aPlant ecology. 615 14$aAgriculture. 615 24$aPlant Pathology. 615 24$aSustainable Development. 615 24$aPlant Physiology. 615 24$aPlant Ecology. 676 $a630 700 $aReddy$b P.
