17.7 Final Analysis and Solutions
Supplying healthy food and protecting the environment perhaps is the main goals of
today’s human. To achieve this, the effectiveness of IPM aimed to reduce the use of
chemical pesticides is inevitable, which is possible with the focus on eco-friend
manners including BC. The desired performance of IPM, relying on BC, is the result
of the disproportionately complex interaction of various sociopolitical and even
cultural factors that can only be developed through a specific set of factors. The
development of BC, not only as part of sustainable agricultural development, but
also as an important stage of the development through changing the attitude of
officials and experts in addition to helping to preserve the environment contributes to
the achievement of advanced communication technologies, relating to the large
markets and the modern organization of the private sector, and finally improves
the health of the household food and the welfare of the community. The first question
is, how to develop production, market and use of BCAs and/or, in short, how to
improve BC plans in the face of the existing problems? Is the answer might be to take
advantage of other countries’ experiences and combine their achievements with our
knowledge. Among these experiences could be the EU, which adoption of IPM and
