Summary "The central theme of Ecological Methods in Forest Pest Management is the development of Integrated Pest Management (IPM). This has been driven by the need to use environmentally sensitive methods of pest control appropriate to both semi-natural and plantation forests which are likely to be managed for timber production, recreation and improvement of biodiversity. This book focuses predominantly on insect pests, but many examples relate to fungal pathogens, some of which are vectored by forest insects."--BOOK JACKET
