|
Term
|
Definition
lowest level of injury that can be measured- occurs before economic loss- basic IPM principle ensures from damage boundary/economic damage relationship |

|
Term
|
Definition
any pest population can exist at the sam tolerable level and this concept can be applied to development of economic injury levels and action threshold |
