Residue behavior, transfer and risk assessment of tolfenpyrad, dinotefuran and its metabolites during tea growing and tea brewing.

The Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 2021
BACKGROUND Tolfenpyrad and dinotefuran are two representative pesticides used for pest control in tea garden. The application may bring about potential risk to consumers health. Therefore, it is essential to investigate the residue behavior, transfer and

Beyond the present: How climate change is relevant to pest risk analysis

EPPO Bulletin
Climate change is widely recognized as a critical global challenge with far‐reaching consequences. It affects pest species by altering their population dynamics, actual and potential distribution areas, as well as interactions with their hosts and ...

ASSESSING RISKS OF RELEASING EXOTIC BIOLOGICAL CONTROL AGENTS OF ARTHROPOD PESTS

Annual Review of Entomology, 2006
▪ Abstract  More than 5000 introductions of about 2000 species of exotic arthropod agents for control of arthropod pests in 196 countries or islands during the past 120 years rarely have resulted in negative environmental effects. Yet, risks of environmental effects caused by releases of exotics are of growing concern.

Advances in pest risk assessment techniques focusing on invertebrate pests of European outdoor crops

2023
Pest Risk Assessments (PRAs) provide a simple evidence-based evaluation of risk posed by one or more pests to crops and can support farmers and farm advisors in developing integrated pest management strategies. By providing a structured approach to estimating the likelihood of pests infesting crops, and the hazard they present to crop production, these

Pest risk assessment of insects in sea cargo containers

Australian Journal of Entomology, 2001
AbstractA survey of the floors of 3001 empty sea cargo containers in storage was undertaken to estimate the quarantine risk of importing exotic insect pests into Australia, with special reference to pests of timber. More than 7400 live and dead insects were collected from 1174 containers.

Assessing the quality of pest risk models.

2015
Abstract The quality of pest risk models depends on their reliability and validity. Reliability refers to the model's trustworthiness and dependability, but the concept is extended to consistency and stability. Approaches to help establish and test consistency are described.

Ecological aspects of pest risk assessment¹

EPPO Bulletin, 1991
The primary purpose of a national plant protection organization is to prevent the spread of quarantine pests. Such pests are characterized according to their predicted capability to be of economic importance in new areas. The determination of the potential of an exotic pest to cause crop losses is a preliminary component in a pest risk assessment (PRA)

Insect Pest Management and Environmental Risk.

Annual Review of Entomology
Insect pests and insect pest management tactics impose risks to the environment. Environmental risk assessment is a formalized paradigm for the objective evaluation of risk in which assumptions and uncertainties are clearly presented. Therefore, a better
