Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation Sugarcane borer infestations were randomly dispersed.
- Method / resource The Poisson distribution best fit the infested-stalk frequency data.
- Method / resource Other tested distributions gave poorer fits.
- Method / resource The plan with 2 and 5% limits required a maximum average 7.1 20-stalk samples.
- Method / resource The plan with 5 and 10% limits required a maximum average 5.5 20-stalk samples.
- Recommendation The authors estimated implementing these plans would reduce sampling effort by 50-60%.
