商品描述

This book comprehensively compiles information on some of the major pests that afflict agricultural, horticultural and medicinal crops in particular as well as many polyphagous pests. Not only does this book deal with the pests of common globally produced crops it also addresses those of rarely dealt with crops such as seed spices, medicinal and aromatic plants. While the perspective of insect pests is largely Indian and South East Asian in context, the book does deal with globally problematic pests, particularly polyphagous ones. Not only will the readers be acquainted with the pests, their damaging potential and their life cycle but also with the latest methods of managements including ecofriendly measures being employed to keep pest populations at manageable levels.

The 27 chapters in the book, are grouped into four sections primarily based on crop types, viz. pest of agricultural, horticultural and medicinal crops, and polyphagous pests, making the book easyto navigate. Each of the chapters is comprehensive and well illustrated and written by academicians who have dedicated their entire lives to the study of a particular crop-pest complex. The final chapter of this book provides an overview on the principles and processes of pest management.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書全面彙編了有關一些主要害蟲的信息，這些害蟲特別影響農業、園藝和藥用作物，以及許多雜食性害蟲。這本書不僅涉及全球普遍生產作物的害蟲，還探討了那些較少被處理的作物，如種子香料、藥用植物和芳香植物。雖然本書的昆蟲害蟲視角主要以印度和東南亞為背景，但也涉及全球性問題害蟲，特別是雜食性害蟲。讀者不僅會了解這些害蟲、它們的破壞潛力及其生命周期，還會學習到最新的管理方法，包括用於控制害蟲數量的環保措施。

本書的27章分為四個部分，主要根據作物類型進行分類，即農業、園藝和藥用作物的害蟲，以及雜食性害蟲，使得本書易於導航。每一章都內容詳盡且插圖豐富，作者均為專注於特定作物-害蟲複合體研究的學者。這本書的最後一章提供了害蟲管理原則和過程的概述。
