Sažetak

Modern pest management today is based on the principles of integrated pest management (IPM), which is implemented in integrated crop production (IP). IPM is developing for 40 years, and experts in the field of plant protection have been educated in this subject for 30 years. Scientific research in the field of plant protection for many years have been focused on the study of the scientific basis necessary for the successful implementation of IPM by various pests. Since 2010, the IP is governed by rules and subsidized by the government. Therefore the implementation of IPM has become imperative for all producers, regardless of their knowledge of these issues. The examples of good practice, and results of scientific researches conducted in Croatia are used to present how particular principles of IPM can be successfully incorporated into an IP. By the solutions proposed, the pest presure could could be reduced and insecticide application avoided. We explained indirect measures and their possible applications for pest control: crop rotation, introduction of resistant varieties with special emphasis on varieties of potatoes and sugar beet resistant to nematodes, cultural practices, and in particular, the possibility of using trap crops in the control of polen beetle and wireworms. Among the direct measures, we presented the results that are achieved by placing the mechanical obstacles against Colorado potato beetle, conducting area wide control of sugar beet weevil by aggregation pheromones and by employing solarization for the control of nematodes. The use of entomopathogenic nematodes to control pests are described in order to illustrate the biological control. Special attention is given to pest forecast and determining the need for insecticide application.
