SUMMARIZING 30 YEARS OF IMPLEMENTING REGIONAL IPM IN DECIDUOUS ORCHARDS IN ISRAEL

Abstract

For more than three decades, efforts have been made in Israel to change the conventional pest control management in deciduous fruit trees to integrated pest management (IPM). It was based on promoting environmentally friendly crop protection activities in cultivated areas without increasing damages, while facing increasing frequency of extreme climatic events and conditions that encourage pests' population development. In parallel, the transition required developing of a strategy for effective area wide integrated pest management (AW-IPM interface), considering also the human factor (growers), that adds a complexity to the implementation process.
