Abstract

Climate change is profoundly affecting crop pests worldwide, endangering global food security and necessitating action to mitigate losses and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. A transition to climate-adaptive pest management (CAPM) is advocated, emphasizing holistic, climate-smart strategies to minimize crop losses and bolster agricultural resilience. Integrated pest management (IPM), incorporating evolutionary biology principles, is highlighted as a flexible solution to address complex pest challenges. Emerging technologies like precision agriculture and biopesticides offer eco-friendly alternatives. Stakeholder collaboration, education, and outreach are essential for successful implementation. Climate-Smart pest management (CSPM) within climate-smart agriculture (CSA) is crucial for global food security. Reliable pest diagnostics are emphasized for informed decision-making. This chapter explores the comprehensive approach to climate-smart pest management to enhance global food production sustainability.
