Acoustic surveys can efficiently target white grub treatments by identifying spatial distributions of soil invertebrates. This method uses sound indicators to map pest populations, improving integrated pest management strategies.

Area of Science:

  • Agricultural Entomology
  • Geospatial Analysis
  • Acoustic Monitoring

Background:

  • White grubs and other soil invertebrates impact forage production.
  • Traditional survey methods can be labor-intensive and less precise.
  • Developing efficient methods for pest distribution assessment is crucial for integrated pest management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the efficacy of acoustic surveys for mapping soil invertebrate distributions.
  • To identify relationships between acoustic indicators and invertebrate populations.
  • To evaluate the potential of acoustic data for targeted pest management.

Main Methods:

  • Conducted geospatial surveys using acoustic and traditional excavation methods.
  • Developed indicator variables from listener- and computer-based acoustic assessments.

  • Applied geostatistical analysis, contingency analysis, and Spatial Analysis of Distance Indices (SADIE).

    • Main Results:

    • Significant relationships were found between acoustic indicators and counts of sound-producing soil invertebrates.
    • SADIE analyses revealed significant spatial clusterings and associations.
    • Local spatial associations between acoustic indicators and invertebrate counts were identified.

    Conclusions:

    • Acoustic surveys provide a valuable, efficient tool for targeting white grub treatments.
    • The identified spatial associations can inform integrated pest management strategies.
    • Acoustic monitoring offers potential for selecting specific treatment or reserve sites.
