Grass Grubs and Damage Ranking
Data source: R. J. Townsend AgResearch, Lincoln, New Zealand
Grass grubs are one of the major insect pests of pasture in Canterbury and can cause severe pasture damage and economic loss. Pastoral damage may occur periodically over wide ranging areas. Grass grub populations are often influenced by biotic factors (diseases) and farming practices (such as irrigation and heavy rolling). The objective of the report was to report on grass grub population and damage levels to provide objective estimates of the annual losses caused by grass grubs.
The original machine learning objective was to find a relationship between grass grub numbers, irrigation and damage ranking for the period between 1986 to 1992.
