The Entomological Society of America (ESA) has announced that it will begin publishing the Journal of Integrated Pest Management (JIPM) in spring 2010. JIPM is an open-access, peer-reviewed, extension journal covering the field of integrated pest management. Dr. Marlin E. Rice of Pioneer Hi-Bred International (formerly with Iowa State University) and Dr. Kevin L. Steffey of Dow Agrosciences (formerly with the University of Illinois) will serve as the Editors-in-Chief.
The editors are currently calling for submissions of original, extension-type articles about any aspect of pest management in the broadest sense, including, but not limited to, management of pests that affect row crops, forage and grasslands, horticultural crops, forests, urban landscapes, structures, schools, households, livestock and pets, and human health. Recommendations should be based upon the principles of integrated pest management and supported by published research and validation data when available.
The intended readership for the journal will be any professional who is engaged in any aspect of integrated pest management, including, but not limited to, crop producers, individuals working in crop protection, retailers, manufacturers and suppliers of pest management products, educators, and pest control operators.
