Focus on controlling pests in a way that protects crops, human health, and the environment. Pest management includes different methods such as cultural practices (proper planting, crop rotation, sanitation), mechanical and physical control (traps, barriers, hand removal), biological control (using natural enemies like predators or parasites), chemical control (careful use of pesticides), and integrated pest management (IPM), which combines all methods strategically. The goal is not to eliminate all pests, but to keep their population at safe levels while minimizing harm to people, beneficial organisms, and ecosystems.
