Shownotes

Integrated pest management (IPM) is moving up the farming and political agendas. At the AHDB Agronomists’ Conference 2021, Neil Paveley (ADAS) and Phil Jarvis (Voluntary Initiative chairperson and farmer) took part in an evidence-based discussion. Hear how further adoption of IPM requires economic barriers to be addressed (such as through the Environmental Land Management scheme) and approaches made less risky (compared to chemical alternatives). Learn how a combination of economic incentives and improved knowledge will help farmers strike a balance between the production of food and the stewardship of land.
