Pesticide Resistance Management

Pesticide Resistance Management involves strategies to prevent pests from becoming immune to pesticides, reducing their effectiveness over time. This is achieved by rotating different types of pesticides, using combined methods like biological controls, and applying pesticides only when necessary. The goal is to slow down or avoid pests developing resistance, ensuring pesticides continue to work effectively and crop protection remains sustainable. By managing how and when pesticides are used, farmers can reduce the chances of resistance developing and maintain healthy, productive crops.
