Conteúdo: | Soybean IPM in Brazil may be considered a success story among other IPM programs worldwide, in terms of farmer adoption and impact (economic, environmental and social) (Gazzoni, 1994). Biological control programs for major insect pests (A. gemmatalis and stink bugs), and, more recently, the strategy of IPM in continuous micro river basin areas have certainly contributed for considerable improvement of the program in terms of reduction in chemical insecticide usage and in the profile of the products used to control pests on soybean. Besides biological control initiatives, considerable efforts are being directed to develop or improved other pest control strategies against these major insect pests, such as resistant varieties, use of cultural practices, etc. With the expansion of soybean in Brazil and change in cultural practices, the insect problems to be tackled in the different regions have increase substantially (Panizzi & Correa Ferreira, 1997). Major needs of research with these new pests are: better understanding of their ecology and behavior; determination of damaging thresholds; determination of efficacy of their control by chemical insecticides; evaluation or improvement of cultural practices to control especially S. subsignatus and soil insects such as scarabaeid larvae and burrowing bugs; impact of natural enemies on their populations and potential for use in biological control programs. Therefore, in parallel to the continued effort to improve currently available IPM strategies, development of sound control tactics emergent insect problems will be important to sustain or increase growers' adoption of IPM in different regions.
