Pest and Insect Monitoring Service

The insect monitoring service consists of installing pheromone traps to detect both the pest’s presence and density. It also determines when the population of the insect/pest reaches the critical level of economic damage. These traps send daily images that are processed and evaluated electronically and certified by an entomologist. This professional performs the daily analysis of the images and feeds the system with quantitative data, generating reports and graphs of the incidence of insects in the crop. Based on the data, the grower can determine the time of action more precisely and limit the unnecessary use of insecticides, which can be used as a last resort.
