A model-based approach to assess the effectiveness of pest biocontrol by natural enemies [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 Main goal: The aim of this note is to propose a modeling approach for assessing the effectiveness of pest biocontrol by natural enemies in diversified agricultural landscapes including several pesticide-based management strategies. Our approach combines a stochastic landscape model with a spatially-explicit model of population dynamics.
