Extract

Recently it has become evident that the estimates of crop losses by biotic and abiotic agents are not adequate for present-day requirements. With the increasing awareness of the need for more accurate and reliable crop loss estimates within both administrative and scientific disciplines, there has been an enhanced interest in the precision of disease measurement.
