Many insects (vector) can transmit disease pathogens from infested
plants, animal or birds to other healthy organisms.
Insects, pests and pathogens spoil our food commodities directly
by infesting whole or part of agricultural produce.

CULTURAL METHOD OF CONTROL
Cultural
control is the manipulation of the microenvironment to improve crop
production.
Create Impediments to pest
Creation of adverse biotic conditions for the survival of pests
(tillage, cleaning, crop residues)
Modification of the cropping system (crop rotation improve crop
health results in reduced injury to the crop).
Enhancement of natural enemies by manipulating the environment.
Biological Control
The use of parasitoid, predator, pathogen, antagonist, or
competitor populations to suppress a pest population, making it less abundant
and less damaging than it would otherwise be.
Chemical Control
The use of pesticides for the control of insect pests.
Pesticides are agents of chemical or biological origin that
control insects by killing them or otherwise preventing them from engaging in
behaviors deemed destructive.
Regulatory
Regulations enforced by the country or state for the registration,
application, of pesticides, fungicides, or insecticides.
Regulations for free or restricted movement of agricultural
commodities
Use of Nuclear Techniques in Pest Control click
Nuclear Techniques for pest control are environment friendly
species-specific control techniques for the insect pests and pathogens at the
pre and post-harvest stages of agricultural commodities.

The article on pest control is informative and useful, especially for those looking for solutions in agriculture. I liked how it explains the importance of managing pests efficiently, though it would have been interesting to see more detailed examples of specific methods or case studies. Still, it's a good starting point for understanding the topic.
