Controlling insects in stored grain by disturbing the grain
Insects can cause damage to stored grain, especially on smallholder farms in the tropics. Sitophilus zeamais (maize weevil, MW) and Rhyzopertha dominica (lesser grain borer, LGB) are often involved. Our objective was to determine, by four experiments, if

Application of Machine Learning for Insect Monitoring in Grain Facilities
In this study, a basic insect detection system consisting of a manual-focus camera, a Jetson Nano—a low-cost, low-power single-board computer, and a trained deep learning model was developed. The model was validated through a live visual feed. Detecting,

The adoption of thermosiphon powered, ground level phosphine application systems in Australia.
Safe storage of grain on Australian farms requires a sealable silo to exclude grain insects and enable effective fumigation to avoid the development of insect resistance to phosphine. A sealable silo must also be fitted with a pressure relief system that
