- Establishing Action Thresholds Floriculture and Ornamental . . .
The number of pests or level of damage beyond which management action should be taken is known as the action threshold, a fundamental concept in integrated pest management
- Mastering Threshold Concepts in Weed Science
One key aspect of successful weed management is understanding threshold concepts In this article, we will explore the essential principles of threshold concepts in weed science and discuss how they can be applied to improve crop yields
- ESTABLISHING TOLERANCE LEVELS (“ACTION THRESHOLDS”)
Tolerance levels or action thresholds can be developed for agricultural crops by studying the effect of an insect or pathogen or weed on the ultimate yield of the crop
- The Threshold Concept and its Application to Weed Science
Action thresholds may be defined as the weed population at which a grower decides to institute a control tactic, and may be above, below, or at the economic threshold level
- The Threshold Concept and its Application to Weed Science
The concept of thresholds has many applications in weed science, depending on the response being measured The most common adjectives used to describe thresholds are damage, economic, period, and action
- Smart IPM: Setting Effective Action Thresholds for Your Yard
Action thresholds in IPM are predetermined levels of pest populations or damage at which control measures should be considered They are used to guide decisions on whether or not to intervene, as not all pests or levels of infestation warrant control actions
- Chapter 4-Pest_Mgmt - University of Florida
Therefore, every IPM program is dependent upon periodic scouting to ascertain pest density and upon establishment of densities when treatment is warranted, i e thresholds quantity or quality
