Deep learning-based intelligent recognition algorithms are increasingly recognized for their potential to address the labor-intensive challenge of manual pest detection. However, their deployment on ...

Mathematicians have developed a new mathematical model which could greatly increase the efficiency of pest control and hence significantly reduce the impact of pests on crops whilst minimizing the ...

Climate change, land use change and biodiversity loss are combining to drive an increase in agricultural pests and expansion of their ranges with concerning implications for future global food ...

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, Vol. 86, No. 2 (May, 2004), pp. 332-344 (13 pages) We describe a composed-error model for estimating pest-damage functions ...

Experts say rising temperatures and other climate change phenomena may trigger more pest problems. This could result in pests having more offspring and showing up in places they haven't been before.
