In-Depth Information
The most important development in our view is the need to consider
diversification strategies not in terms of control of
an individual
pest or pathogen but
rather to consider diversification in terms of the whole range of abiotic and biotic
challenges facing crop production in a particular locality (see Weiner, 2003). Where
the most important strategy becomes avoidance or prevention of problems through
system design, the nature of pest, disease and weed problems may then be no longer
well-defined, because the system is appropriately buffered and sustainable (see also
Bird
et al.
, 1990).
