Remote Sensing for Site-Specific Crop Management: Evaluating the Potential of Digital Multi-Spectral Imagery for Monitoring Crop Variability and Weeds within Paddocks [PDF]
This paper analyses the potential and limitations of airborne remote sensing systems for detecting crop growth variability and weed infestation within paddocks at specified capture times. The detection of areas of crop growth variability can help farmers

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Phakopsora pachyrhizi in Paraguay showed diverse resistance to DMI, SDHI, and QoI fungicides at both regional and intra‐field levels, likely driven by target mutation genes. Abstract BACKGROUND Phakopsora pachyrhizi, the causative agent of Asian soybean rust, poses a major threat to soybean production in South America. The rising incidence of fungicide

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Entomopathogenic nematodes provide reliable biological control of vine weevil larvae, reducing populations by 63% on average. All five tested species are effective, with temperature (18–30 °C) being the strongest predictor of success. Abstract BACKGROUND Vine weevil (Otiorhynchus sulcatus) is a globally important pest of soft fruit and ornamental crops

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Chemical profiling and bioassays reveal that leaf‐litter leachates from urban trees flip between nourishing and killing Aedes aegypti larvae: dilute Tipuana tipu boosts growth, whereas concentrated, aged extracts are >90% lethal. Species‐specific chemistry thus turns street trees into potential self‐renewing tools for integrated vector control ...

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.We isolated Zymoseptoria tritici strains from a diverse wheat field and quantified fungicide resistance using a novel plate assay. We found high diversity in fungicide sensitivity and host–fungicide–pathogen interactions. Abstract BACKGROUND Zymoseptoria tritici causes Septoria tritici blotch (STB), the most damaging wheat disease in Europe. In Europe,

Modelling individual plants’ growth: competition of Viola arvensis and wheat
Frontiers in AgronomyIntroductionCompetition by weeds is a severe threat to agricultural crops. While these days the broadcast of herbicides over the entire field is common praxis, new technologies promise to reduce chemical output by reducing the area sprayed.

A review of knowledge: inter-row hoeing & its associated agronomy in organic cereal & pulse crops [PDF]
, 2002 The aim of this project was to establish the “state of the art” for inter-row hoeing and its associated agronomic practices in organic cereal and pulse crops. To achieve this a detailed review of literature was undertaken.
