4 IPM and IVM Integrated Pest Management Integrating control methods Biological, mechanical, cultural, genetic, chemical Principles of IPM: 1. Grow a healthy crop 2. Conserve natural enemies 3. Observe crops regularly 4. Farmers become experts Farmer Field Schools Integrated Vector Management Integrating control methods Methods based on local vector biology, disease transmission, morbidity Intersectoral collaboration Engage local communities & public health framework No link to farmer occupation + No economic incentive Link to farmer occupation + economic incentive

5 Combining IPM and IVM IPVM awareness/ understanding less agroinsecticides reduced vector populations reduced transmission increased profit better protection less insecticide resistance better housing/ nutrition less disease

6 Work steps of this study 1. Select provinces with high malaria transmission 2. Select provinces with high pesticide use 3. Screen pesticide-intensive crop types 4. Develop maps showing vector insecticide resistance due to agrochemicals and potential areas for IPVM 5. Test insecticidei id susceptibility in mosquito vectors

7 Step 1. Provinces with high malaria transmission IVM potential area

14 Step 4. GIS and spatial analysis IVM potential area

15 Step 4a. Stratification of malaria areas A. Control area with transmission 1. Perennial transmission areas: transmission occurs >6 months per year 2. Periodic transmission areas: transmission occurs <6 months per year B. Control area without transmission 1. High-risk non-transmission areas: no transmission for at least 3 years, primary malaria vectors present 2. Low-risk non-transmission areas: no transmission for at least 3 consecutive years; only suspected vectors present C. Pre-integration areas (PA) D. Integration areas (IA) Malaria Division 1993

32 Conclusions Agricultural crop protection affects insecticide resistance in anophelines Potentially also in dengue vectors Currently nodirect threatt to vector control Beware of Increased use of pyrethroids in agriculture Development of cross-resistance IPVM can be a valuable vector control option in areas with insecticide-intensive agriculture IPVM less agroinsecticides reduced vector populations increased profit awareness/ understanding better housing/ nutrition better protection less insecticide resistance less disease reduced transmission
