Course Name : PRINCIPLES OF INTEGRATED PEST AND DISEASE MANAGEMENT

Code(Credit) : ASPP3204(1-1-0)

Course Objectives

  • At the end of the semester students will be able to understand:
    1. What is a pest and categories of Pest.
    2. IPM and tools of IPM.
    3. Cultural, Mechanical, Physical, Biological, Microbial and Legislative methods of Pest and Disease Management.
    4. Chemical Control of Pests

Course Outcomes

As an applied course, this course will help
1. To have basic knowledge regarding the concepts of ETL and EIL which will be helpful in their higher studies in both insect and disease pest management.
2. To learn the classification of insecticides, their manufacture, trade names by which the students can take it in an entrepreneurship mode.
3. To develop skill in the students to make a decision of correct pest management tactics.
