Abstract
This manual provides an overview of pests, including their definition, characteristics, and the four main types of pests that affect crops and human activities. It explains the importance of understanding pests for effective pest management. The document highlights the four categories of pests: insects, plant diseases, weeds, and vertebrates, detailing their impacts on crops and the environment. The goal of this session is to introduce participants to the different types of pests and encourage proactive pest management. Additionally, the document emphasizes that preventing pests is far more beneficial than trying to treat them after the damage has occurred.
