  1. 6. In the wake of the Green Revolution : Environmental and socioeconomic consequences of intensive rice agriculture - The Problems of weeds in Muda, Malaysia

    Författare :Magnus Jirström; Institutionen för kulturgeografi och ekonomisk geografi; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; intensification; land degradation; rice agriculture; IPM integrated pest management ; Social geography; sustainable agriculture; Green Revolution; Socialgeografi;

    Sammanfattning : The agricultural intensification strategies represented by the Green Revolution have since the mid-1960s had a very positive impact on food-grain production in Asia. Presently, however, a post-Green Revolution phase of declining growth in output and productivity is experienced in many of the areas where intensification took place. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Ecology and management of crop pollination and pest control : insights from red clover seed production

    Författare :Ola Lundin; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The agricultural landscape has gone through large changes to meet increasing demands for food. This has led to major biodiversity declines, while effects on ecosystem services that support agricultural productivity, such as pollination and pest control, remain less studied. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Disruption of moth mating behaviour by olfactory and auditory cues

    Författare :Glenn Svensson; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Djurekologi; ultrasound; predation risk; selection; heritability; flight tunnel; harmonic radar; pest control; mating disruption; pheromone communication; Pyralidae; Lepidoptera; Noctuidae; Animal ecology;

    Sammanfattning : The impact of olfactory and auditory cues on the mating behaviour in two species of moths, Agrotis segetum (Noctuidae) and Plodia interpunctella (Pyralidae), was investigated to evaluate their potential use in integrated pest management. The flight behaviour of male A. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Evaluation of plant resistance in field pea by host plant choice behaviour of pea weevil (Bruchus pisorum L.) : implications for pest management

    Författare :Esayas Mendesil; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Field pea (Pisum sativum L.) is an important grain legume crop due to its nutritional value and role in improving soil fertility in cropping systems. Insect pests are one of the main production constraints for field pea, with pea weevil (PW), (Bruchus pisorum L.) being an economically important pest of field pea worldwide. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Attract, reward and disrupt: combining habitat manipulation and semiochemicals to enhance pest control in apple orchards

    Författare :Joakim Pålsson; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Agricultural intensification entails negative effects on natural enemy populations and the pest regulation services they provide. Habitat manipulation holds potential to control pests with less negative effects on the environment than conventional methods. LÄS MER
