Professional toolkit · Excel workbook + PDF guide
IPM Decision Scorecard for pest-management decisions
Compare two crop-protection options using an explicit, repeatable framework instead of an informal pros-and-cons list.
What the toolkit helps you do
Use it when several interventions are plausible and you need to make trade-offs around efficacy, beneficial compatibility, resistance management, cost, operational fit and evidence quality visible.
What is included
- 10 weighted IPM decision criteria
- Automatic weighted totals and decision bands
- 1-5 scoring anchors
- Editable weights for your production context
- Quick-start PDF guide and internal-use license
Who it is for
Crop-protection advisers, growers, IPM managers, technical teams and researchers comparing control options.
Inside the framework
| Criterion | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Expected efficacy | How strongly the option is expected to suppress the target problem |
| Beneficial compatibility | Whether the choice preserves predators, parasitoids and other useful organisms |
| Resistance-management value | How the choice affects selection pressure and future options |
| Operational fit | Whether timing, labor, equipment and workflow are realistic |
| Evidence confidence | How direct and reliable the supporting evidence is |

Need project-specific analysis?
Use the toolkit yourself or move to a consulting review.
If you need the evidence searched, interpreted and applied to a specific crop, pest, product or market, I can scope a focused technical engagement.
