Vegetable farmers in Nakhon Ratchasima Province of Thailand were interviewed.
The objective was to investigate the factors determining their adoption of IPM.
IPM was adopted due to higher insecticide cost, their effects on humans and environment.
IPM was rejected due to unsuitability on large farms and implementation difficulties.
Lower cost, IPM knowledge, extension availability influenced adoption of IPM.
