What journal, named after a UC Berkeley soil scientist, published the landmark 1959 paper on integrated control?

• A. Agriculture Journal
• B. Ecology Today
• C. Hilgardia
• D. Insect Science Review

Answer: (C)

This question tests knowledge of where the influential idea of integrating multiple pest-control methods was first published. The landmark 1959 paper introducing the integrated control concept appeared in Hilgardia, the journal of the California Agricultural Experiment Station. Hilgardia is named in honor of Eugene W. Hilgard, a prominent soil scientist at UC Berkeley, linking the publication to that institution. The other journals listed are not the historical venue for that paper, so Hilgardia is the correct choice.
