Uses of Azolla
Symbiotic nitrogen
fixation, thus high N
content
Used for green manure
in wetland rice in China,
Vietnam, and Philippines
Weed suppression in

Fertilizer Management
IPNM = Integrated Pest & Nutrient Management
= Managing soil nutrients and pests in a
complementary fashion, i.e.
pest management has a
neutral or positive effect
on soil quality
soil nutrient management
has a neutral or positive
effect on pest levels
Single Field Cultural
Control Practices
Why do we need Integrated Pest
and Nutrient Management (IPNM)?
Some nutrient
management causes
pest outbreaks
Some pest management
techniques degrade the
soil
IPNM could reduce pest
problems and enhance
soil fertility
Single Field Cultural
Control Practices
IPNM FOR A CHANGING
RICE ECOSYSTEM
Burning straw to
control insects and
diseases
Plowing fallow
land to hinder
weeds and the
insect pests they
harbor
Draining fields

therefore greater

Community-wide Cultural Control
Practices -- continued
Trap crops
Flooding stubble
Tillage
Weed control
Harvest methods
Straw and stubble destruction
Ratooning
Examples of EPM for Rice caseworm - Nymphula depunctalis (Guenee),
Pyralidae, Lepidoptera.

Nn = N t + B – D + I – E
Cultural control aims to increase:
mortality
emigration
Cultural control aims to decrease:
natality & fecundity
immigration
