Crop protection AGRI12002

In this assessment you will be asked to assume the role of a farm advisor (crop protection
consultant). You will be given a farm case study scenario and asked to develop an Integrated Pest
Management (IPM; read ‘pest’ here for pests, weeds, and diseases!) plan for that enterprise, or for a
subsection of the enterprise.
The aim of the IPM plan is to ensure an environmentally sustainable and economically profitable
crop. You will analyse the given scenario, collect appropriate information about management steps
and options, analyse them to come up with sound and well corroborated management
recommendations, and make a good case that your recommendations are practical, economically
viable and environmentally sound and sustainable. Your analyses, recommendations and evaluations
must be based on scientifically reliable, authoritative sources, preferentially peer reviewed
literature.
