What is the primary goal of eradication as a pest management strategy?

  1. Features that surround and affect an organism

  2. Eliminating all members of a pest population from a defined area

  3. A method to eliminate established pests using chemical agents

  4. A method of disposal of pesticides in a waterproof container

The correct answer is: Eliminating all members of a pest population from a defined area

The primary goal of eradication as a pest management strategy is to eliminate all members of a pest population from a defined area. This approach aims to completely remove the pest species from the environment, thus preventing further damage or spread of the pest population. By eradicating the pests, potential threats to crops, human health, and the ecosystem can be minimized or eliminated. This focused and precise removal of the pest population distinguishes eradication from other pest management strategies mentioned in the other options.
