Why is IPM a preferred approach in pest control?

  1. Increases pesticide effectiveness

  2. Maximizes pest dispersal

  3. Minimizes environmental risks

  4. Promotes rapid pest reproduction

The correct answer is: Minimizes environmental risks

IPM or Integrated Pest Management is a preferred approach in pest control because it minimizes environmental risks. IPM methods focus on prevention, monitoring, and the use of non-chemical control methods before considering the use of pesticides. This reduces the overall impact on the environment and helps protect beneficial organisms. Options A and D are incorrect because IPM does not rely solely on the use of pesticides, but rather integrates various methods to control pests. Option B is incorrect because IPM aims to reduce pest populations rather than maximize their dispersal.
