| Abstract |
The report concluded that resistance is of growing concern and that applying more and different pesticides will not solve the problem. The report identified a range of specific tactics farmers and public health workers can use to deter resistance. These include: varying dosages and application rates; new formulations and synergists; treating only to economic thresholds; more selective pesticides; applying them in new sequences, and over small rather than large areas; designing chemicals with new sites of action; use of pesticide-resistant natural enemies; integrating chemical with nonchemical methods; and developing pest-control measures that do not rely on chemicals. |
