Pest Control
Bayani Gaba-gaba
A field of healthy maize can be stripped to bare stalks in days when an army of caterpillars marches through it, and a thriving vegetable crop can be slowly drained by clouds of tiny aphids that you have to look closely to see. Pests are animals, mostly insects, that damage crops, and learning how each one lives is the first step to stopping it.
In this lesson you will follow the life cycle of a named insect pest, see how biting, sucking and boring pests damage crops in different ways, and learn the four families of control: chemical (contact and systemic pesticides), biological, biotechnical and cultural. You will learn why crop rotation breaks a pest's life cycle and how a systemic pesticide reaches a pest hidden inside the plant.

- (b) name and describe the mode of action of chemical controls for pests including contact pesticides and systemic pesticides and understand the appropriate use of these pesticides in controlling pests in the groups listed above.
- (c) describe biological and biotechnical methods of controlling pests.
- (d) describe methods of cultural pest control including rotation and catch cropping.
