and the natural resources. The present day natural resource management is a perfect
example of how Indian agriculture is a%ecting the eco-systems. The excessive
dependence on chemical pesticides led to the development of resistance in pests to
pesticides, out breaks of secondary pests and pathogens/biotypes, and occurrence
of residues in food chain. To overcome such situations and minimize damage to
human-and animal-health, several organizations have started advocating the
concept of IPM with better pro)ts. This chapter is aimed to discuss the importance
of various insect pests and diseases of economic importance of major crops in India
and their eco-friendly management strategies in watershed perspective
