One more thing to think about the process of associativity that has been sought within the sector and that has been so amply talked about during previous years.

LISBETH RIIS Founder and CEO of Scarab Solutions, the global leader in pest and disease monitoring for greenhouse crops.

CĂłmo el mapeo de plagas y enfermedades marca la diferencia en el control de los costos y la cosecha.

En el mundo de la medicina, el mapeo digital efectivo de plagas y enfermedades estĂĄ bien documentado y tiene un impacto enorme. La Dra. Lisbeth Riis explica DĂ˜NP MB JOEVTUSJB EF nPSFT EF DPSUF QVFEF CFOFmDJBSTF TJHOJmDBUJWBNFOUF BM SFQMJDBS FTUPT NJTNPT QSJODJQJPT FO MPT cultivos de invernaderos.

A continuaciĂłn, describe las ventajas que se obtienen en materia de costos, visibilidad y gestiĂłn cuando se utilizan TPMVDJPOFT EJHJUBMFT DPO FM mO EF CSJOEBS VOB WJTJĂ˜O EFUBMMBEB y precisa de las plagas y enfermedades en plantaciones completas.

El mapeo de plagas y enfermedades en cualquier parte del mundo tiene efectos de gran alcance. Como un buen ejemplo, estĂĄ el caso puntual del programa mundial para erradicar la poliomielitis, fuertemente apoyado por la fundaciĂłn de Bill y Melinda Gates. Hace treinta aĂąos, el poliovirus salvaje estaba presente en mĂĄs de 125 paĂ­ses y paralizaba a 350.000 personas por aĂąo, principalmente a los niĂąos pequeĂąos. En la actualidad, la labor increĂ­blemente centrada en el mapeo y el seguimiento, en combinaciĂłn con un programa de inmunizaciĂłn mundial de la Iniciativa de ErradicaciĂłn Mundial de la Poliomielitis (GPEI, por sus siglas en inglĂŠs), ha reducido la cantidad de casos en mĂĄs del 99 %, lo cual ha salvado a mĂĄs de 13 millones de niĂąos de la parĂĄlisis.

Las lecciones aprendidas a travĂŠs de las enfermedades humanas pueden aplicarse en la horticultura y Ă RULFXOWXUD Parece que mientras estas tĂŠcnicas avanzadas prevalecen actualmente para las enfermedades humanas, no ha habido TVmDJFOUFT DBNCJPT FO MPT JOWFSOBEFSPT EF nPSFT EF DPSUF en Ă frica y en AmĂŠrica Latina, donde se cultiva una gran DBOUJEBE EF MBT nPSFT EF DPSUF QBSB FYQPSUBDJĂ˜O &M NBQFP de plagas y enfermedades en los cultivos continĂşa siendo, a NFOVEP VO QSPDFTP NBOVBM JOFYBDUP F JOFmDJFOUF CBTBEP en el anĂĄlisis en papel y en el conocimiento individual.

Sin embargo, una vez que se ha encontrado un problema de plaga o enfermedad, se continĂşan utilizando los mismos mĂŠtodos manuales para medir la efectividad de la fumigaciĂłn y cobertura de los pesticidas.

Nuevamente, aquĂ­ es donde se puede trazar un paralelismo Ăştil con el mundo de la medicina. En Nigeria, uno de los tres paĂ­ses que aĂşn se enfrenta a la poliomielitis, los equipos solĂ­an ir de pueblo en pueblo en regiones remotas de zonas rurales administrando la vacuna de la poliomielitis, pero seguĂ­an dependiendo de mapas de memoria dibujados a mano para registrar los datos.

1.ReducciĂłn de pĂŠrdidas de cultivo Un mapa digital con GPS presentarĂĄ una base clara para atacar el problema mediante el mapeo correcto de la extensiĂłn de las plagas y enfermedades en un invernadero.

Ante todo, la intervenciĂłn temprana basada en FM NPOJUPSFP FGFDUJWP QVFEF JEFOUJmDBS MBT QMBOUBT BGFDUBEBT Mediante el uso de datos obtenidos por los monitoreos para mapear digitalmente el invernadero, los administradores de las plantaciones pueden ver el patrĂłn de actividad representado de un modo visual.

2. Mejoras en control biolĂłgico y pesticidas Otra ĂĄrea clave en la que el mapeo efectivo tiene buenos resultados es en el empleo de pesticidas y control biolĂłgico.

Como se destacĂł anteriormente, todos los ambientes de los invernaderos presentan algunas diferencias, por lo que la presencia y la proliferaciĂłn de plagas y enfermedades variarĂĄn de uno a otro. Es por esto que utilizar el mismo volumen y la misma cobertura para la fumigaciĂłn con pesticidas en todos ellos no tiene sentido.

Veamos cĂłmo funciona: Todo ciclo de monitoreo completo para cada uno de los invernaderos deberĂ­a hacerse una o dos veces por semana, haciendo un seguimiento del rango total de informaciĂłn sobre plagas y enfermedades.

reaching effects. For a case in point you only have to chart the worldwide program to eradicate Polio—heavily supported by the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation. Thirty years ago, wild poliovirus was present in more than 125 countries and paralyzed 350,000 people every year, primarily young children. Now incredibly targeted tracking and mapping efforts, combined with a global immunization program by Global Polio Eradication Initiative (GPEI), have reduced the number of cases by more than 99%, saving more than 13 million children from paralysis.

Lessons learned from human diseases can be applied to horticulture It seems that while these advanced techniques are now prevalent for human diseases, not enough has changed JO UIF DVU nPXFS HSFFOIPVTFT JO "GSJDB BOE -BUJO "NFSJDB XIFSF B MBSHF BNPVOU PG UIF XPSME T DVU nPXFST BSF HSPXO Mapping of pests and diseases in horticulture is still often a NBOVBM JOBDDVSBUF BOE JOFGmDJFOU QSPDFTT SFMZJOH PO QBQFS based analysis and individual knowledge.

Manual data analysis quickly becomes unfeasible 8JUI DVU nPXFS HSPXJOH JO TVDI B DPNQFUJUJWF NBSLFU gaining a differentiating advantage is key. To manage pests and diseases, farms use a team of scouts to collect data on many hectares of greenhouses. But the same manual methods are being used to measure the effectiveness of pesticide spraying and coverage once a pest or disease problem has been found.

Using these manual processes to analyze data is complex enough in one greenhouse—let alone 20 or more, all of which will have their own unique factors impacting pest and disease control such as temperature, moisture and risk of physical damage.

Again, this is where useful parallels can be drawn with the medical world. In Nigeria, one of the three remaining countries facing Polio, teams would go from village to village in remote, rural regions of the countryside administering the polio vaccination—but would still rely on hand-drawn memory maps to record that data. People running the global immunization program soon realized more effective mapping would help track and eradicate the disease.

Advanced mapping and analytical tools readily available Using satellites, GPS tracking and mapping software to create Geographic Information Systems, very detailed maps were produced from the data collected. Using this critical geospatial information, administrators could now see a more holistic picture showing where outbreaks of Polio were, which villages were missed and the number of teams that had to be

The same is true for tracking the effect PG QFTUT BOE EJTFBTFT GPS DVU nPXFS HSPXFST Advanced mapping and analytics tools are now available to digitize a large portion of pest and disease mapping, tracking and control—changing how the world targets crop pests and disease. It is the analysis stage where mapping can unlock true value—monitoring scout effectiveness, measuring pests and disease outbreaks and gauging intervention success. )FSF BSF UISFF LFZ CFOFmUT BDSPTT UIF GBSN 1. Reduced Crop Losses A digital GPS-based map will present a clear basis for problem shooting by correctly mapping out the extent of pests and diseases in an individual greenhouse. Take a disease such as Downy Mildew for example—which occurs in moist, cool and poorly ventilated conditions. Firstly, early intervention from effective scouting can pinpoint the affected plants. By using scouting data to digitally map the greenhouse, farm managers can see the pattern of activity visually represented.

One of the cases witnessed by Scarab agronomists was the presence of a small amount of Downy Mildew in only some spots at the end of some rose beds in a particular greenhouse.

On initial review the farm manager was completely unaware to the presence to the disease in the house, but on inspection it was found that poorly constructed downpipes spilled over water and caused the ideal moist conditions for this disease out of reach of the manager’s eyesight.

This is where effective decision-making comes in. If farm managers did not have this map, then things could easily get worse for them. They could run the risk of the disease spreading to other plants, with potentially catastrophic impact to total yield. Instead they can react accordingly— even putting preventative measures in the form of quality control of the farm’s works departments to protect plants from being at risk in the same way in the future.

Ecuadorian grower Naranjo Roses implemented a mapping system to manage Powdery Mildew, Head Botrytis and Downy Mildew—in a single year it managed to boost its OVNCFS PG nPXFST BWBJMBCMF GPS FYQPSU CZ 2. Improved pesticide and biological control Another key area where effective mapping pays dividends is in the deployment of pesticide and biological control. As highlighted earlier, all greenhouse environments are slightly different—so pest and disease presence and proliferation will vary for each and every one. So, using the same volume and coverage of pesticide spraying across them all makes no sense. With an effective map, farm managers can target TQSBZJOH UP TQFDJmD BSFBT JO TQFDJmFE SPXT NJOJNJ[JOH UIF volume of pesticide used across the entire farm.

Here’s how it works.

Every full scouting cycle from each and every greenhouse should be completed one to two times per week—tracking a whole range of pest and disease information. When the data is logged into a mobile device it becomes very easy to build an overall picture of the performance of the whole farm.

Daily reports containing key information are be delivered directly to the farm or crop protection manager—such as Spidermite presence, Downy Mildew, Powdery Mildew, Head Botrytis, Thrips and damage and much more. Not only does this allow farm or crop managers to track performance daily, they can dig deeper into particular focus areas dating back months or years.

They can then make data-driven decisions to focus scouts and farm workers on target areas and report accurate and up-to-date management information to farm owners. If they are working with an experienced solution provider who owns a wide enough dataset, they can even anonymously track their performance against the average data for other farms in their area.

Much has changed in that time. Technologies advanced cities rose from the ground, an we have become more connected than ever. As a result, our essential bond with nature is weaker. AIPH strives to reignite and uphold an appreciation of plants that we believe is a basics human instinct. We support the work of grower associations globally and together we champion a prosperous industry, growing plants that enhance lives, advance societies and sustain our planet, for this generation and the next.
