PHOTOGRAPHY IN PLANT PEST & DISEASE CONTROL

CLIVE CADWALLADER, F.R.P.5. Shell Photographic Unit, London Millions of tons of vital food crops are lost annually through the destructive activities of pests and diseases. It is therefore extremely important that farmers and growers should recognise early signs of any disease so that they may take action before damage is irreparable. It may also happen that scientific investigation shows a certain period of 1 pest's life-cycle to be particularly vulnerable to counter-measures.

Photography, especially colour Highly evolved insects somic- photography, has become a use- times respond too strongly to the ful aid to the entomologist and heat of studio lighting, and plant pathologist wishing to these may have to be exposed aludy such cycles.
