Chapter 1 - Introduction -- Chapter 2 - Population components of pests -- Chapter 3 - Monitoring and population density estimation -- Chapter 4 - Population fluctuations and dispersions -- Chapter 5 - Sampling program -- Chapter 6 - Decision-making levels -- Chapter 7 - Temperature-dependent models for predicting poikilotherm pest occurrence -- Chapter 8 - Biodiversity and pest outbreaks -- Chapter 9 - Remote Sensing, Geographic Information System (GIS) and Machine learning in the pest status monitoring.
En: Springer Nature eBookResumen: This book covers the theoretical and practical aspects of pest population components, explaining the probable reasons for pest density fluctuations and outbreaks in agricultural or other ecosystems. Agricultural pest management is a complex task that involves dealing with a variety of pests, including insects, diseases, and weeds. Decision systems can help farmers navigate this complexity by providing structured approaches to identify, monitor, and control pests. By making informed decisions based on data and models, farmers can reduce unnecessary pesticide applications, minimizing environmental impact and saving costs. This book aids in predicting pest outbreaks using population growth parameters and estimating economic crop losses through critical thresholds, illustrated with simple case studies. Additionally, the book covers image processing, remote sensing monitoring, and other novel methods for monitoring and quickly forecasting pest population outbreaks to develop integrated pest management (IPM) programs. The book is valuable for agricultural and entomological students (graduates and postgraduates), researchers, as well as pest managers and farmers.
