Economics of Decision-Making in Agricultural Pest Management (Integrated Pest Management (Ipm))

Abstract

dc:description

Decision making in pest management, like all other economic problems, involves allocating scarce resources to meet human needs. One hundred Illinois corn and soybeans farmers were surveyed to examine their pest management decision making in the 1984 growing season. Farmer's decisions to adopt pesticides; the extent of pesticide use; and technical and price efficiency in the use of pesticide, and other inputs were examined.
