The greater the selection pressure on a pest population is, the more pressing the need for resistance management. However, even with low selection pressure, strategies should be put in place to reduce the chance of resistance developing. Depending on the selection pressure, resistance management strategies can range from simple, general practices to very specific multi-product/multi-crop guidelines that consider such factors as product usage, pests, mechanism(s) of resistance, alternative products, and fit with IPM and ICM programs. In either case, some combination of general resistance management strategies often form the backbone of the evolving strategy.
