Synopsis

Florida with its subtropical climate, highly diversified agriculture and great university, state and federal research institutions, has become one of the world's leading centres of research and implementation of biological control. The main objective of the book is to bring together the entire scope of work carried out in Florida in this important area - past, present and future. The book presents a very broad spectrum of pest management. It is intended to serve as a general textbook and major sourcebook, illustrated mainly with Florida examples. The chapters are carefully balanced to include enough general background, with emphasis on the unique Florida experience. The tone is reflective, pointing not only to past achievements and accomplishments, but also to ideas about what should have been done in a given area, future trends and so on.

This volume, together with the volume on biological control, should be of interest to graduate and undergraduate students in biological control, IPM and crop protection classes, researchers, pest management practitioners, agriculturalists, enlightened farmers, relevant government agencies and the environmentally concerned public in Florida, the USA and throughout the world.
