Integrated pest management (IPM) is a strategy that uses pest biology, environmental factors, and economic information to determine the best management actions to minimize pest damage.

Detailed management recommendations for pests in North Carolina strawberries can be found in two places.

• The NC Agricultural Chemicals Manual contains North Carolina specific weed, diesease, and insect management recommendations.
• IPM recommendations from experts from throughout the southeastern United States are available in the Strawberry IPM Guide. This publication is provided by the Southern Region Small Fruit Consortium
