Pests are queuing up to be found

An oil palm and a coconut are quite different plants, but they also have various things in common. Unfortunately, these include pests, mainly insects. This bilingual CD-ROM (English and French) contains fact-sheets on each pest or insect, basic information on its biological features and geographical occurrence, the damage they cause and possible control measures: more than 170 oil palm and coconut pests are covered. Information can be traced through three routes. The CD allows alphabetical searching, by zoological names, and searching by criteria: by type of damage, life stage of the insect and so on. Each fact-sheet is illustrated with colour photographs, and 800 references classed by insect order are included. Oil palm and coconut pests.
