Sustainable Management of Rice Insect Pests by Non-Chemical-Insecticide Technologies in China

摘要

Chemical pesticides play crucial roles in the management of crop diseases and pests.However,excessive and irrational use of pesticides has become a major concern and obstacle to sustainable agriculture.As a result,the quality and security of agricultural products are reduced,and the ecological and environmental integrities are threatened.Recently,environment-friendly pest management measures have been introduced and adopted to manage rice insect pests and reduce the use of insecticides.This paper reviewed the advancements in development and application of non-chemical technologies for insect pest management during rice production in China.
