Answer :
Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is a holistic approach to managing pests that aims to minimize economic, health, and environmental risks. It combines various pest control methods, including biological, cultural, physical, and chemical controls, in a coordinated and environmentally sensitive manner. Instead of relying solely on pesticides, IPM focuses on prevention, monitoring, and control strategies tailored to the specific needs of each situation. The goal of IPM is to effectively manage pests while reducing reliance on harmful chemicals and minimizing impacts on non-target organisms and the environment.
