Field Scouting Guide

This guide features more than 100 colour photos and descriptions of 23 insects, 30 diseases and 18 weeds common to western Canada. Information is provided on host crops, biology, scouting techniques, economic thresholds and control tips.

"The Field Scouting Guide is designed to assist growers and agronomists in making pest management decisions. These decisions must be based on accurate information which can only be obtained through effective field scouting. This book is a guide to the first steps in integrated pest management. Integrated pest management is a comprehensive approach to managing pests and will enable growers to lower the cost of production and increase farm net income."
