Reading Assignment:
Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.
![Page 3: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Define “Pest”
![Page 4: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
FIFRA Definition of “Pest”
(1) any organism that interferes with the activities and desires of humans or (2) any other form of terrestrial or aquatic plant or animal life or virus, bacteria, or other micro-organism (except viruses, bacteria, or other micro- organism on or in living man or other living animals) which the Administrator declares to be a pest under section 25(c)(1).
![Page 5: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
A Working Definition of “Pest”An injurious and noxious or troublesome
living organism [that] does not include a virus, bacteria, fungus or internal parasite that exists on humans or animals (British Columbia Pesticide Control Act,1997)
Includes insects, weeds, plant pathogens, birds, non-human mammals and other organisms which pose non-medical problems to humans and non-veterinary problems to animals
![Page 6: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
A pest must cause injury
In order for an organism to be considered a pest, a damaging stage of the organism must be present in high enough numbers to cause actual injury to something valued by people.
![Page 7: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
“Pest” is not a property of a species
Being a pest is not an inherent property of a species but, rather, a species (along with its population and age distribution at a given time and place) and a human valuation of the item being injured or damaged.
![Page 8: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Four things required to “make” a pest (Fig. 1-6 from text)
1. Pest species must be present at the right stage
2. Environmental criteria must be met.
3. Crop must be a susceptible variety and growth stage.
4. All of the above must occur at the same time.
![Page 9: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
This is a pathosystem concept
• Pathogen – host – environnment triad must all be right in order for an outbreak of disease.
• When pest – crop – environment right, leads to “damage”.
![Page 10: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Pest damage to crops is significant.
From Fig. 1-9
![Page 11: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
How do pests become pests?
1. New crop introductions
2. New organism introductions
3. Production system practices
4. Removal of limiting factors
5. Low tolerance
![Page 12: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The Pest Complex• The specific collection of pest species
attacking a specific commodity or cropping system at any given time and location.
• A given complex is divisible into different “groups”:– Invertebrates (arthropods, molluscs)– Vertebrates (mammals, fish, birds)– Weeds (perennials, summer/winter annuals)– Plant Pathogens (fungi, bacteria, viruses,
nematodes)
![Page 13: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Each pest species has a given status within a complex
• Key pests• Minor pests• Secondary pests• Occasional pests• Potential pests• Chronic pests• Migrants• Accessory Species
– Vectors (Pest status often linked with pathogen)– Alternate Hosts
![Page 14: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Pests are often classified by the type of injury that they cause
General Terms
• Direct Pests
• Indirect Pests
• Medical/Veterinary
![Page 15: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Pest Injury versus Damage
Injury – The effect that the pest has on the crop or commodity.
Damage – The effect that injury has on man’s valuation of that crop or commodity.
For crops, “Injury” is biological and “Damage” is economic. For non-crops, “Injury” = “Damage”.
![Page 16: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Organisms that cause economic damage are the ones of interest in
pest management
![Page 18: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Introducing “Pest Management”• “Management” -- a process by which
information is collected and used to make good management decisions to reduce pest population impacts in a planned, coordinated way.
• Requires:– Tolerance – Information– Strategy
![Page 19: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
IPM Defined
IPM – A system that maintains the population of any pest, or pests, at or below the level that causes damage or loss, and which minimizes adverse impacts on society and environment.
Attempts to balance the benefits of pest control actions with the costs when each is considered in the broadest possible terms.
![Page 20: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Two Basic Decision Categories in IPM
Most Control Decisions Combine One of Each of the Following:
1. Tactical vs. Strategic• Tactics – Individual control options• Strategies – Combinations of Tactics
2. Preventative (Prophylactic) vs. Curative (Therapeutic)
• Preventative – Before pest is a threat• Curative – When pest is threatening
![Page 26: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

IPM Strategies are Implemented Via Programs
• Programs include pest monitoring and decision tools
• Monitoring & decision tools tie into the strategy.
![Page 28: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

The Evolution of IPM
• Pest management is at least as old as agriculture.
• It has evolved along with agriculture and technology
• Generally, when technology as advanced, so has pest management (and vice versa).
• Read Chapter 3 in text: Historical Development of Pest Management. Pp. 47 - 64
![Page 30: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Four Logical Periods
• Before WWI
• Between WWI & WWII
• Between WWII & 1962 (Silent Spring)
• 1962 onward
![Page 31: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Before WWI
• Periods of great advancement followed by decline.
• Advancing periods characterized by:– Scientific inquiry into the nature of crops and
pest biologies– Agricultural production for profit, specifically,
for well-developed export markets.
![Page 32: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Early Examples
4,000 – 5,000 BC Early China
2,500 BC Summerians
1,000 BC Egyptians
400 – 200 BC Greeks
200 BC – 100 AD Romans
1500 – 1700 AD Baconism
![Page 33: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Major Events in Baconism
• Voyages of Discovery
• Printing & Woodcuts
• Perspective in Art
• Microscope Invented
• First Naturalists
• Agricultural Markets Develop
• Scientific Method
![Page 34: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
During the 19th Century
• Great strides in biological knowledge (e.g. germ theory, evolution, genetics).
• Industrial revolution leads to large scale farming and commercial markets
• Modern pest groups are recognized (insects, weeds, pathogens)
• Potato famine creates incentive for government funding of pest controls.
![Page 35: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
19th Century Pest Control Advances
• Pressurized spray equipment nozzles invented
• First modern success in biological control
• First modern success in host plant resistance
• Modern cultural tools developed
• Most key pests’ biologies understood
![Page 36: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
By WWI
• Modern pest tactics were available but only a few were practical.
• Developed countries were being invaded by major foreign pests.
![Page 37: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Between WWI & WWII
Pest Control Depended on Relative Crop Value
• High Value Crops – Became pesticide-oriented: Improved equipment and chemicals
• Low Value Crops – Management-oriented. Emphasis on plant breeding, cultural methods, basic science & ecology
![Page 38: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
During the 1940’s
• 1940 – DDT patented as an insecticide
• 1942 – BHC found insecticidal
• 1943 – 2,4-D found effective as a herbicide
• 1946 – Gerhard Schrader hired by Bayer
• 1946 – Houseflies found resistant to DDT
![Page 39: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
During 1950’s
Organic chemical pesticides become routine on all crops
• Viewed as “modern” farming
• Low risk, “cost of business”
• Few/no regulations
• High prices/demand for US exports
• Problems would not be addressed until 1962
![Page 40: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Problems Arising During the 1950’s
• Pest Resistance
• Bird/Fish Kills
• Human Poisonings
• Secondary Pests
• Biomagnification
![Page 41: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
“Pesticide Treadmill”
1. Spray, kill pest & natural controls. Pest comes back. Repeat until…
2. Resistance in primary pest. Increase application rates. Kill broader range of natural controls.
3. Induce secondary pest4. Begin spraying for secondary pest until…5. Resistance in secondary pest6. Change chemicals. Repeat sequence.
![Page 42: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)

Silent Spring in Context of its Time
In the 10 years before Silent Spring…• Many new innovations were introduced.
Pesticides were viewed as one of them.• Widespread attitude was that man could
control nature. Pesticides were a manifestation of that view.
• After the depression & war, people wanted to believe that the govt & corporations could be trusted.
![Page 45: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Silent Spring Coincided with Other Events
• 1962 – John Glen’s first orbital flight.• 1962 – Thalidomide taken off market
(problem identified 11/61, public outrage throughout 1962).
• 1962 – Cuban Missile Crisis• 1961 – 1963 – MLK’s movement climaxes• 1961 – 1963 – US increased presence
from 900 to 16,000 in Viet Nam• 1963 – JFK assassinated
![Page 46: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Silent Spring Aftermath
• 1963 – President’s Science Advisory Committee issues report calling for reducing pesticides’ effects.
• 1963 – Senate calls for creation of Environmental Protection Commission
• Early – mid ’60’s – Increased sensitivity in analytical equipment enables detection of ppb’s. Including other chemicals.
• 1965 – First pesticide food tolerances
![Page 47: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
As the Effects Spread …
• Public became increasingly negative toward chemical companies.
• 1970 – EPA established.
• 1972 – DDT banned (biomagnification)
• 1973 – IBP project started– Emphasized pest control as a system– Introduced pest modeling/decision tools– Only for insects
![Page 48: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
IPM Concept Solidifies in the 1970’s
• 1975 – First textbook, Metcalf & Luckman (former had been criticized in SS)
• 1978 – CIPM project replaces IBP– Included weeds & plant pathogens– Included economic analyses
• 1978 – KY statewide IPM program began
![Page 49: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
IPM Becomes Ingrained
• 1984 – IPM becomes an annual federal budget item
• Large-scale scouting programs rise, decline, and stabilize in the 1980’s
• 1993 – National IPM Initiative: 75 % of US cropland to have IPM by 2000
• 2000 – National effort to develop “Crop Profiles” and “IPM Strategic Plans”

Current Status
• IPM widely recognized as the proper approach to dealing with pests in production agriculture.
• Implementation is up to individual farmers so it varies considerably
• Concepts are well established but the technology continues to improve.

1. Reproduction -- “Vivipary”
Flowers are replaced by tiny plantlets which detach and grow into new plants. A form of asexual reproduction. These plants grow where there is a short growing season or where it is shady with few pollinators. This example is a wild onion Allium, where the flowers in the umbel inflorescence are replaced by vegetatively produced bulblets (little bulbs), and these bulblets sprout on the parent plant.
In Plants
![Page 86: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)
1. Insect Reproduction
Oviparity -- Eggs deposited shortly after fertilization
Ovoviviparity -- Female deposits a larva or nymph instead of an egg
Viviparity -- Female feeds embryo after development has begun
Paedogenesis -- Larvae give birth without becoming an adult
Parthenogenesis -- Development without fertilization
Polyembryony -- A single egg results in more than one individual

1. Reproduction
Good for IPM Bad for IPM
Sexual 1. Can manage resistance
2. Mating disrupt. possible
More plastic, better able to overcome tactics
Asexual 1. Strain/race geographically specific
2. Can’t overcome effective controls
1. More inoc. (path & weed)
2. Faster popn. growth (all are reproductive)
Note: Many serious species have both sexual & asexual periods or stages.

Assignment for Friday, Feb. 6
Find an article (preferably online) that applies an ecological principle to pest management. Hand in one page containing a copy of the abstract of the article (with title and reference) and a brief description of the article and how an ecological principle was applied to a pest management problem. Identify which of the three ecological chapters from the text (Chap. 4, 6, or 7) your article most closely relates. We will group the articles by chapter and everyone will make a 2-3 minute presentation on his or her article.

Why Study Ecology in IPM?
• History of IPM is a history of applied ecology
• Managing pests often relies on exploiting a pest’s ecological weaknesses.
• Alternatively, one may manage the ecology in order to make a crop less vulnerable to pests.
• Future of IPM lies in increasingly sophisticated ecological manipulations.

1. Ecosystem Organization & Succession1. Species : "groups of actually or potentially interbreeding natural populations that
are reproductively isolated from other such groups" (Ernst Mayr)
2. Individual: A single organism (bacterium, weed, nematode, insect); not always obvious.
3. Population : a collection of individuals of one species that exists in some defined geographical area
4. Guild: a group of species that exploit the same resource in a similar manner
5. Community: a group of populations occurring in the same geographical area
6. Ecosystem: a community of living organisms and the abiotic framework that supports them. Agroecosystem – An ecosystem dominated by humans that typically has few common or major species (crops) and numerous rare or minor species (some of which are pests).
7. Landscape: a cluster of interacting ecosystems

• Often presented as an application of “Island Biogeography” -- Concentrates on local population/species extinctions.
![Page 98: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/98.jpg)
Island Biogeography & Landscape Ecology
• When one species goes extinct, it is replaced so that there’s an equilibrium
• Replacement species is not necessarily the same as the extinct population…may be another from the same guild.
• Smaller islands have higher extinction rates than larger islands.
• Extinction rates increase with increasing distance between islands
Wilson & MacArthur studied species extinction rates on small islands & found:
![Page 99: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/99.jpg)
Lesson: Size AND distance both affect species equilibrium
Which is better?
![Page 100: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/100.jpg)
Lesson: Agroecosystems can fragment landscapes
• Some species are stranded on their islands – increasing the chance that they might go locally extinct.
• Reduction in biodiversity is good for pests which thrive in the agroecosystem anyway.
• Note that reduction is in species diversity – includes number of spp. AND number of individuals.
![Page 101: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/101.jpg)
Green Network Concept
• Maintain a network of contiguous patches & corridors that are not part of the agroecosystem.

Ecological Succession
• An orderly, directional and therefore predictable process of development that involves changes in species structure and community processes over time.
• Results from a modification of the physical environment by the community and culminates in a stabilized ecosystem in which maximum biomass and symbiotic functions are maintained.
![Page 103: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/103.jpg)
Succession Sequence
Agriculture typically keeps the ecosystem at this end.
Natural tendency is to go to the right (cf Fig. 4-1 in text, p. 69)
![Page 104: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/104.jpg)
Fig. 4-1, p. 69
![Page 105: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/105.jpg)
Implications of Early Succession Systems
1. Trophic cycles are disrupted (adds to the biodiversity problem)
2. Species good at invasion are favored
3. Nutrient cycles are altered, biomass does not accumulate/cycle
4. Energy flow is not webbed but, instead, directed toward one commodity
5. Ecology “resets” each cropping season
![Page 106: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/106.jpg)
2. Definitions and Terminology
• Carnivores and Omnivores can be monophagous, oligophagous, or polyphagous
• Host organisms do not necessarily host parasites, herbivorous insects also feed on “hosts”
• Note distinction between parasites and parasitoids. Both can be internal or external (ectoparasites).
• Add “Pathogen – A microbial parasite that causes disease. Primary – attacks a healthy host, secondary – attacks an injured/weakened host.”
Refer to pp. 71 – 72 in text. Notes on those definitions:
![Page 107: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/107.jpg)
3. Trophic Dynamics
Large subject that is central to pest injury and pest management.
• General Concepts
• Bottom-up versus top-down processes
• Basic food chains – note the diagrams– Pathogens– Weeds– Webs (generalized and animal-based)
![Page 108: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/108.jpg)
General Concepts of Trophic Dynamics
What is a trophic system?
![Page 109: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/109.jpg)
Top-Down vs Bottom-up Trophic Systems
• Top-Down – Producers (plants) limit the growth of primary consumers (herbivores) which limit the growth of primary carnivores & so on.
• Bottom-up – Top consumers limit growth at the next lowest level throughout the chain.
• Note that “limit” can be an economic effect, not necessarily an ecological one
![Page 110: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/110.jpg)
Top-Down vs Bottom-Up Trophic System
With bottom-up control, increased production results in greater productivity at all trophic levels. With top-down control, consumers depress the trophic level on which they feed, and this indirectly increases the next lower trophic level.
BottomUp
Top Down
![Page 111: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/111.jpg)
Grazer vs. Decomposer Systems
Grazer food chains begin with algae and plants and end in a carnivore.
Decomposer chains are composed of waste and decomposing organisms such as fungi and bacteria
![Page 112: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/112.jpg)
Food Webs
• Two or more trophic systems linked within a given ecosystem or landscape.
• Three main categories in agroecosystems:– Animal-based (animal production systems)– Above-ground, plant based (Crop Production
Systems [CPS])– Soil food web in CPS’s
• The two CPS webs interact but are usually managed separately
![Page 113: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/113.jpg)

Components Soil Food Web
• Herbivores – Root feeders (arthropods, microbes)
• Pathogens – Microbes that attack underground organisms
• Shredders – Chew up organic matter, increasing surface area & decomposition rate
• Decomposers – Decompose organic matter• Predators – Maintain stability of above
populations

Limiting Resources & Competition
• Populations can be limited in several ways– Food & water– Shelter/Reservoir
• Limitation can occur at any stage or time (e.g. overwintering)
• Effectiveness dependent on population ecology of individual pest. Life history strategy important part of that ecology.
![Page 116: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/116.jpg)

Interactions Between Pest Categories
Read Chapter 7, Ecosystem Biodiversity & IPM
Fig. 6-1, p. 129
Note: No crop, management, beneficial species, or environmental effect. Biological interactions between pests only.
![Page 119: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/119.jpg)
Interactions Between Pest Categories
• Trophic Relationships• Environmental (Habitat) Modification Result• Mechanical Effects• Response to Control Tactics
– Non-pesticide– Pesticide-related
• “Interactions” may be:– Pest-pest or pest-crop– Measured in injury or damage
![Page 120: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/120.jpg)
This subject excludes the direct effects of:
• Interactions within pest categories (i.e. – pathogen – pathogen). But note that viruses, bacteria, fungi, & nematodes are different “categories” for Norris et al.
• Interactions between pests and their natural enemies
![Page 121: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/121.jpg)

Direct vs. Indirect According to Brown
• Direct: (Pest A + Pest B) -> Outcome
– Outcome may be biological or economic– If Spp. A & B are present, outcome is realized
• Indirect: Pest A -> Affector -> Pest B -> Outcome
– “Affector” may be another pest, management action, environmental effect, etc.
– A & B & Affector must all be present for outcome to occur
![Page 123: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/123.jpg)
Direct Interaction(A + B) -> Outcome
Four possibilities
1 – Together, one (or both) pest

Examples by Category
1. Green vegetable bug becomes a problem if provided with non-pest weeds.
2. Ants tending aphids.
3. Weeds as alternate hosts for pathogens.
Overwintering hosts for aphids.
4. cf. item 4 on p. 136 (cutworms & chinch bugs) & item 5 on p. 137 of text.
![Page 125: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/125.jpg)
Read these sections closely
• Habitat Modification – Understand and be able to ‘compare & contrast’:– Altered Resource Concentration– Altered “Apparency”– Microenvironment Alteration
• Interactions Due to Physical Phenomena– Physical Damage to Host– External Transport– Internal Transport
![Page 126: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/126.jpg)
Ecosystem and Biodiversity in IPM
• Why did monocultures become so widespread?
• Can we expect monocultures to continue?
• If so, how can we make biodiversity relevant? At what spatial scale will this relevancy be realized (cf. p. 157).
![Page 127: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/127.jpg)
Frequent Disadvantages of Biodiversity in CPS
1. Increasing plant diversity decreases density of marketable commodities
2. Increased density/diversity of herbivores (cf. p. 136 – 137)
3. Increased alternative hosts for pathogens4. Larger complex of species to be managed5. More complex production system/equipment needed to
deal with mixed plantings6. Dilution of inputs (fertilizer, water)7. Decreases in commodity quality common (size, color,
texture, etc.)8. Increased cost of commodity as a result of the above
Contrast with benefits noted on p. 158
![Page 128: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/128.jpg)
Two Issues Must Be Resolved in a Biodiversity & IPM Discussion
1. A. Does the discussion concern the use of biodiversity in IPM or B. does it concern the use of IPM to maintain biodiversity?
• If A, emphasis is biocontrol, if B, emphasis is pesticide reduction
2. A. Does the discussion concern managed biodiversity within crop fields or B. does it concern associated biodiversity in surrounding ecosystem?
• If A, emphasis is on tillage & cropping systems, if B, emphasis is on landscape ecology.
![Page 129: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/129.jpg)
4. Applying Ecological Principles to Managing Pest Populations
• IPM is an implementation vehicle for ecological knowledge.
• Degree of implementation varies, recall the IPM continuum.
• Many examples available, see reading for “A Whole Farm Approach to Managing Pests.” In particular, note the sidebars.
![Page 130: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/130.jpg)
Implementation of Ecological Principles in IPM
• Goal is preventative – keep pest populations from causing damage.
• Requires increased knowledge, observation, management – Increased costs not immediately offset
• Must return multiple benefits for adoption
• Usually helps, seldom adequate in itself
![Page 131: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/131.jpg)
Two Approaches to Using Ecological Knowledge in IPM
• Ecologically-Based Pest Management (EBPM). Established in the NAS book of the same name.
• Farmscaping – Mostly for biological control.
• Widely used in organic production systems
![Page 132: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/132.jpg)
Ecologically—Based Pest Management
• Basic Ideas:– Refocus pest management on maintaining ecological
balance– Change management emphasis from individual
species/components to processes, interactions between multiple species
• 3 Basic Principles– Safety– Durability– Profitability
![Page 133: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/133.jpg)
EBPM Status
• Much research is funded annually
• Profitability issues remain, EBPM systems often not as profitable or are too risky compared to existing IPM systems
• EBPM generally relies on collective efforts (e.g. cooperatives, public oversight, etc.) which have yet to be accepted on a wide scale.
![Page 134: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/134.jpg)
Farmscaping
• The practice of designing and maintaining habitats that attract and support beneficial organisms, used to improve crop pollination and to control pest species.
• Emphasis on landscape ecology for targeted objectives.
• Many examples are available. Here are a few.
![Page 135: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/135.jpg)
Many similar themes along these lines
Here’s a small sample. Follow the links to read a little about each one & get the idea.
• Permaculture
• Biointensive Pest Management
• Regenerative Agriculture
• Biodynamic Agriculture
![Page 136: Integrated Pest Management IPM. Reading Assignment: Norris et al., Chapter 1. Pests, People, and Integrated Pest Management. Pp. 1 – 14.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5517948355034645368b5744/html5/thumbnails/136.jpg)
