WHAT IS
AGRICULTURAL
DISEASES
AND PEST?




Transboundary plant pests and diseases affect food crops, causing
significant losses to farmers and threatening food security.

Consequently, what are pests and diseases?

A pest is any animal or plant detrimental to humans or human concerns,
including crops, livestock and forestry, among others. The term is also
used of organisms that cause a nuisance, such as in the home. An older
usage is of a deadly epidemic disease, specifically plague.

Similarly one may ask, what is disease in agriculture?

Diseases have a detrimental effect on plants and animals and impact on
market access and agricultural production.

Diseases include micro-organisms, disease agents (bacteria, fungi and
viruses), infectious agents, parasites and genetic disorders.

DISEASE
MANAGEMENT
AGRICULTURE




In agriculture, disease management is the practice of minimising disease
in crops to increase quantity or quality of harvest yield.

Organisms that cause infectious disease in crops include fungi, oomycetes,
bacteria, viruses, viroids, virus-like organisms, phytoplasmas, protozoa,
nematodes and parasitic plants. Crops can also suffer from ectoparasites
including insects, mites, snails, slugs, and vertebrate animals, but these
are not considered diseases.

Controlling diseases can be achieved by resistance genes, fungicides,
nematicides, quarantine, etc. Disease management can be a large part
of farm operating costs.
