The continued use of IPM tactics, especially correct
identification, observation of pest damage and numbers,
and decision making based on the observations
was documented in two ex-post evaluations of the project
describe here. Hruska, et a1.23 and Pareja, et a1.24
found that 50-90% of program farmers continued to
sample for insect pests three years after training ended,
while only 17% on farmers who had not participated in
the program monitored their fields to make pest-management
decisions.
