This regulation has significantly reduced pesticide use and offers insights into addressing excessive pesticide usage. Our study aims to elucidate how the Chinese government should promote IPM policies, specify measures and target groups, and ameliorate the overreliance on pesticides among Chinese farmers. Data collected through farmer surveys in Dengkou County assessed IPM technology adoption. The Kruskal-Wallis Test analyzed cognitive behavioral differences in the IPM index. A fractional response model identified factors influencing farmers' IPM index, and an unconditional quantile regression model discussed asymmetric effects of predictor coefficients. Positive correlations were found between Education, Crop growth stage, Soil, Market, Weather, Earnings, Pesticide residue, and IPM adoption. Conversely, Age, Area, and Eradicate pests and diseases hindered IPM adoption, with noticeable differences in influencing factors' coefficients at various quantiles. Our results emphasize that the government should concentrate on reducing technological adoption barriers for young farmers, enhance adherence to pesticide spraying standards and crop rotation knowledge, especially among those neglecting pesticide residue reduction during spraying. Efforts should be directed at reinforcing the position of farmers endorsing green agricultural practices and assisting in establishing scientifically accurate monitoring systems for field pest populations. This research serves as a case study for developing countries implementing IPM, offering a valuable reference for nations facing similar challenges and contributing experience to the global pursuit of sustainable agricultural development.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":10785,"journal":{"name":"Crop Protection","volume":"192 ","pages":"Article 107167"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-02-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143474538","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

IPM encourages the integration of control measures to minimise the risks associated with pests and pest management practices, including pesticides. To optimise adoption it is necessary to understand how growers use IPM, to identify measures lagging in uptake or suitability for uptake and to explore limitations to both. This study has quantified IPM adoption using Irish food horticulture as a case study, through the development and application of an IPM metric based on field, protected and top fruit production systems. The compound metric was developed using a Delphi-style methodology with three expert panels representing the three production systems. The results show that adoption was widespread with growers overall attaining low to mid-range scores (&lt;70, out of a maximum 100). Field crop growers performed best with a mean score of 44.8. While these results demonstrated that IPM has been adopted, it also suggested that there is room for improvement. This presentation of an IPM measurement instrument for temperate horticulture systems provides the means to benchmark IPM performance and chart cumulative progress. This is useful to policy makers and IPM stakeholders to compare performance on a national and cross-national basis with a view to refining best practice, while defining specific components of IPM for improvement.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":10785,"journal":{"name":"Crop Protection","volume":"191 ","pages":"Article 107165"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-02-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143422176","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, scientific knowledge regarding the spray drift generated by these aerial spraying systems is needed to facilitate their integration into European agriculture. Currently, UASS spray drift models have not been developed. This study aims to characterize sedimenting spray drift curves for UASS in 3D crops and compare them with reference drift models used in the environmental risk assessment of PPPs in Europe under Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009. To accomplish this, drift trials were conducted in typical agroforestry scenarios in Spain, including super high-density olive orchards, grapevines, and pine tree plantations. UASSs generated more drift than the terrestrial reference drift models in grapevine trials. Conversely, in super high-density olive orchards, the drift generated by UASSs was significantly reduced compared to both terrestrial and aerial reference models. For pine trees, a reliable UASS sedimenting drift curve could not be established. UASSs present a promising tool for agricultural applications, though with certain limitations. The similarity in drift between UASSs and the aerial reference model in grapevines may result from a wider-than-necessary swath width. Future developments of UASS should consider implementing variable-width spraying to match the target plant size. In forestry crops, the high spraying altitude complicated the development of a reliable sedimenting drift curve under the conditions of this study. Further research is needed to optimize UASS use in various agricultural settings.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":10785,"journal":{"name":"Crop Protection","volume":"191 ","pages":"Article 107164"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143403541","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
