A HAZELNUT PEST MANAGEMENT EXPERT SYSTEM |
| Authors: | R.J. Drapek, J.A. Calkin, G.C. Fisher |
| Abstract:
An expert system (HAZLPEST) was developed for insect and disease pest management on hazelnuts (Corylus avellana L.). This program is divided into four distinct sub-programs: insect identification, insect monitoring and control, insecticide selection, and disease management. Discussions are included on problems arising from the inclusion of pesticide information in agricultural software, the cost effectiveness of pest management expert system production, and on problems associated with distributing computer software to users with a wide range of hardware capabilities. | |
