Samenvatting

The book assesses the impacts of pesticide use reduction strategies in the context of Thai highland agriculture. It shows that it is possible to bring down levels of pesticide use without income trade-offs. Combining Integrated Pest Management (IPM) with pesticide taxes and bio-pesticide subsidies is the most cost-effective and practicable policy.
