Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2020 Human–wildlife conflicts occur when wildlife has an adverse effect on human activities (e.g., predation of livestock, crop raiding). These conflicts are increasing, particularly in areas surrounding natural protected areas, where villagers engage in ...

Estimation of flood-damaged cropland area using a convolutional neural network
Environmental Research Letters, 2021 Flood damage to croplands poses a significant threat to global food security. Effective disaster management to cope with future climate change, especially extreme precipitation, requires a robust framework to estimate such damage.

Evaluation of techniques to reduce deer and Elk damage to agricultural crops
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2014 Mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) and Rocky Mountain elk (Cervus elaphus nelsoni) provide important recreational, ecological, and economic benefits, but can also cause substantial damage to agricultural crops.

Individual responses of GPS‐tagged geese scared off crops by drones or walking humans
Ecological Solutions and EvidenceScaring of wildlife is commonly used in attempts to reduce crop damage in agricultural landscapes, but relatively few studies exist on its actual effect.

CROP DAMAGE BY WILD TURKEY IN OHIO
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2000 : As eastern wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris) populations expanded in Ohio, farmer concerns about crop damage increased. In 1995, the Ohio Division of Wildlife initiated a study to address farmer concerns regarding wild turkey crop damage ...

Crop Damage by Primates: Quantifying the Key Parameters of Crop-Raiding Events
PLoS ONE, 2012 Human-wildlife conflict often arises from crop-raiding, and insights regarding which aspects of raiding events determine crop loss are essential when developing and evaluating deterrents. However, because accounts of crop-raiding behaviour are frequently indirect, these parameters are rarely quantified or explicitly linked to crop damage.

HAIL DAMAGE ON THREE VEGETABLE CROPS [PDF]
HortScience, 1993 U.S. crop loss from hail damage amounted to $246,443,391 in 1991. Premiums paid for hail insurance was $403,742,507. Despite the magnitude of this industry, the effects of varying levels of hail injury at different stages of plant growth is largely unknown for many vegetable crops.

Selection of Pathways to Foraging Sites in Crop Fields by Flightless Canada geese
Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017 Geese, especially when they are flightless, can cause significant crop damage. We determined the effects of shoreline characteristics on foraging site selection by flightless Canada geese (Branta canadensis) in South Dakota.
