How is data collected from PestWeb valuable to research?
A project such as PestWeb is a unique opportunity to continuously collect data on selected insects over a larger area and over a longer period of time than could be achieved by a small group of researchers. This information will give researchers and farmers a better understanding about the ecology of the insects and their movements across different years and seasons. Ultimately the data can be used to make better predictions about certain insect pests as well as beneficial insects.
