Integrated Pest Management
There is no best way to deal with pests in
agriculture. Pesticides which are commonly used may cause
many problems. I think combining different management
operations is the most effective way to control pests.
Firstly, the chemicals in the pesticides may build up
as residues in the environment and in the soil which absorbs
the chemicals. This reduces the quality of farm product.
Secondly, pests can gradually become resistant to
pesticides. This means that newerand stronger ones have to
be developed.
Lastly, some pesticides affect non target plants and
animals such as fish and bees. This affects the ecology and
environment as well.
So, understanding of ecology of an area helps a lot
in pest control. Pesticides should be chosen and applied
carefully so that they don't affect the ecological balance and
environment.
Therefore, integrated pest management is a safe
and more effective option to fight pest in agriculture and
livestock.

Anybody who is over the age of six knows that there
is nowhere safe for skateboarders to skate. This prevents
young people from enjoying an active, energetic and
adventurous pastime.
Just watch a local street for a short while and note
the steady stream of skaters speeding up and down the
footpaths. Toddlers can be trampled on and old ladies can be
knocked down as they struggle home carrying their cat food
from supermarkets.
Skateboarding is a serious sport that improves
young people's health. It increases fitness, improves balance
and strengthens the joints in knees and ankles. Although it
appears to be a solo sport, when groups practice together
friendships.
Young people should be prevented from becoming
overweight couch potatoes. If they are actively involved in
skating, they do not smoke, take drugs or break laws for fun.
Kids will always seek thrills and excitement.They
need to practice their 180s, 360s and Ollie's free from
