- International Journal of Pest Management publishes original research papers and reviews concerned with pest management in the broad sense, covering the control of pests (invertebrates, vertebrates and weeds) and diseases of plants, fungi and their products – including biological control, varietal and cultural control, chemical controland interference methods.
The management of invasive species is of special interest. We also encourage submissions dealing with interactions of multiple pests such as arthropods and plant pathogens, pathogens and weeds or weeds and arthropods as well as those dealing with the indirect and direct effects of climate change on sustainable agricultural practices.
The journal covers the following scientific topics:
/// Population dynamics of pests in relation to management strategies.
/// Assessment of pest or weed and disease damage characteristics / levels and associated yield loss; damage and economic thresholds; sampling and monitoring methods.
/// Pest management systems including decision support and risk analyses.
/// Analysis of farmers’ perceptions of pest management constraints or technologies and of economic benefits supporting studies of the efficacy of pest management at field- and farm-scale.
/// The relationship of pest management to the wider aspects of farming systems and rural development policy.
/// Pre and post-harvest pest management.
/// Novel pest management approaches, technology, methods and techniques
/// Non-target effects of pesticide use / of biological control introductions.
/// Life-history strategies and evolution of pest organisms / biological control agents.
/// Plant defense mechanism in the context of pest management.
/// Environmental sustainability in relation to pest management practices.
