What Crop Protection covers on the board exam

  • Insect identification, life cycles and the damage each stage causes.
  • Plant pathology: pathogen groups, disease cycles, symptoms and diagnosis.
  • Weed biology and competition, and the management options against them.
  • Integrated Pest Management — economic thresholds, scouting, biological control and the sequencing of tactics before chemicals.
  • Pesticide classification, mode of action, safety and stewardship.

Study note. Group pesticides by mode of action rather than by trade name. The examination asks about resistance management far more often than about products.

Sample Principles of Crop Protection (Entomology) questions with answers and explanations

Board-style items taken from the Crop Protection bank. Every answer is explained, which is the part that makes a review question worth doing twice.

  1. A specimen is being classified as Animalia → Arthropoda → Insecta. Which rank should come next before family?

    • A. Phylum
    • B. Species
    • C. Genus
    • D. Order correct

    Why: In standard zoological classification, order follows class and precedes family.

    • A. Apis correct
    • B. Hymenoptera
    • C. mellifera
    • D. Apidae

    • A. Insecta
    • B. Apis
    • C. Apidae correct
    • D. Hymenoptera

    Why: The module places honey bees in family Apidae.

    • B. Annelida
    • C. Chordata
