Resumen
IPM programs have expanded in both central and South America over
the past ten years. The South-American program has been focused in the
Andean region, especially on potatoes and fruits, and has been led in part by
the IPM CRSP, the International Potato Center (CIP), and The International
Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT) in conjunction with national
agricultural research systems (NARS). Central American IPM has focused
on non-traditional agricultural export crops, especially fruits and vegetables.
The IPM CRSP has centered its regional IPM programs in Ecuador and
Guatemala. In this chapter, we turn our attention first to the Ecuador
program and then to Guatemala.
