From the Foreword: "Plant protection and silkworm care are important components of any package for productivity improvement in sericulture. Insects inflict serious losses to sericulture industry but the control of these pests has become more difficult of late on account of indiscrimnate use of insecticides. Evolving an appropriate package for plant protection and silkworm parasites and predators management is thus a major challenge to scientists. The present publication brings together a number of useful ideas and would be of immense value to scientists, scholars and students engaged in the study of Environmental Science and Integrated Pest Management in sericulture." 387 pp. Seller Inventory # 9396
