Deployment of organic farming at a landscape scale maintains low pest infestation and high crop productivity levels in vineyards

Journal of Applied Ecology, 2017
Abstract Organic farming is a promising way to reduce pesticide use but increasing the area under organic farming at the landscape scale could increase pest infestations and reduce crop productivity. Examining the effects of organic farming at multiple spatial scales and in different landscape contexts on pest communities and crop productivity is a ...

Effects of agricultural practices and fine-scale landscape factors on spiders and a pest insect in Japanese rice paddy ecosystems

BioControl, 2018
We examined the effects of environmentally friendly (EF) farming and landscape factors on the abundances of major spider guilds and a rice pest, the small brown planthopper (SBPH), Laodelphax striatellus (Fallen), in a Japanese rice paddy ecosystem.

Perception-based foraging for competing resources: Assessing pest population dynamics at the landscape scale from heterogeneous resource distribution

Ecological Modelling, 2015
Resource distribution, through its effects on individual foraging and survival, drives population dynamics across the landscape. In an agricultural context, resource distribution is therefore a key information in assessing whether or not a pest population may invade and persist in a given environment.

Landscape‐scale spatiotemporal dynamics of Halyomorpha halys (Stål) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) populations: implications for spatially‐based pest management

Pest Management Science
AbstractBACKGROUNDBrown marmorated stink bug (BMSB), Halyomorpha halys (Stål), is an invasive and severe pest of specialty and row crops. A 2‐year field study conducted in four Mid‐Atlantic states in the USA characterized the spatial and temporal dynamics of BMSB populations and its association with landscape elements in commercial agriculture settings.
