PestDetect for Cotton

PestDetect is used in conjunction with the SLW decision support tool (DST), that was developed by QLD DAF. The app counts SLW nymphs and integrates this information with crop development and pest density thresholds to assist agronomists and growers to make betterinformed management decisions. Using geotagged image analysis, the app also allow users to create maps of where pests may be building more rapidly on individual farms or fields. It can also enable timely, impartial measurement of the efficacy of insecticides.
