|| || || || || ||
Economic Injury Level - CORRECT ANSWER(S)✔✔Pest density
|| || || || || || ||
population justifies the cost to control (cost of control = cost of
|| || || || || || || || || || || ||
damage)
Economic Threshold - CORRECT ANSWER(S)✔✔Is the density of
|| || || || || || || ||

Insect Resurgence - CORRECT ANSWER(S)✔✔When the insect
|| || || || || || ||
population rebounds and flares up (happens when the natural
|| || || || || || || || ||
enemies are kills along with the pests)
|| || || || || ||
Integrated Pest Management (IPM) - CORRECT ANSWER(S)✔✔Is
|| || || || || || ||
an information-intensive, decision-making process that identifies
|| || || || || ||
and reduces risks from pests and pest management strategies. While
|| || || || || || || || || ||
keeping pest populations below economical damaging levels while

avoiding effects to humans, property, and the environment.
|| || || || || || ||
Iowa Bee Rule - CORRECT ANSWER(S)✔✔Rules in place to keep
|| || || || || || || || || ||
pesticide applicators unnecessarily killing of bees
|| || || || ||
Phytoxicity - CORRECT ANSWER(S)✔✔Injury to plants due to || || || || || || || ||
exposure to a chemical. Might be caused drift to nontarget plants,
|| || || || || || || || || || ||
excessive rates. ||
Preharvest Interval - CORRECT ANSWER(S)✔✔Minimum time || || || || || ||
from the last application to harvest. Done due to potential residue
|| || || || || || || || || || ||
left on the plant.
