Many herbivorous species of Arthropods are considered responsible for significant losses in global crop production on an annual basis, as well as for the transmission of important diseases. Therefore, the control of these animal pests is of utmost importance.

The book "Integrated Pest Management for Crops: Principles and Methods" provides a detailed overview of the approaches used to combat animal pests, including chemical and biological control, as well as modern biotechnological methods.

The book specifically emphasizes the techniques available for controlling animal pests, using examples of significant crop pests, animal parasites, and disease carriers from many different countries.

The aim of the book is to serve as a model introductory aid for undergraduate and graduate students in fields related to animal pest control, entomology, plant protection, agricultural science, and more generally, environmental sciences. At the same time, the book is also aimed at professionals involved in the management of animal pests in crops, as well as application agronomists in government agencies.
