Which are the resistance groups of crop protection agents?
Crop protection agents are subdivided in different resistance groups. A resistance group is a group of crop protection agents that function similarly. This concerns both chemical and non-chemical crop protection agents (like natural enemies).
Preventing resistance
In order to prevent a crop from developing resistance, is a broad range of crop protection agents is required. That is why they can choose to only stop using an application when at least five resistance groups remain available. When an agent is substituted by an alternative agent from the same resistance group, the number of resistance groups will not reduce.

What is integrated pest management?
Integrated pest management is a combination of the use of biology and chemical plant protection products. It consists of three steps: prevention, observation and intervention. This is used to prevent the development of resistance.

Tips for the usage of natural enemies
Regarding biological crop protection you are dealing with a living product. Its use is different from that with the application of chemical pesticides.
