UBC Research Data

UBC Farm Integrated Pest Management Records Centre for Sustainable Food Systems at UBC Farm

Description

This dataset contains UBC Farm integrated pest management records since 2018. Two types of data are present: pest observations (which are informal and incomplete) and actions (applications of pest control products and releases of beneficial insects). Other agronomic practices that contribute to pest control (such as pruning plants, cultivating soil, and physically removing pests) are not recorded here.

Please note that the UBC Farm’s data management practices have grown and evolved over time, and some forms of data have been consistently collected for more years than others. UBC Farm staff are also busy and imperfect humans and sometimes forget to log activities. On rare occasion, erroneous data may accidentally be entered, and these errors may not get corrected during quality control checks. While we do our best to ensure the data we release is complete and accurate, we provide this data to you “as is”, through the disclaimer in the CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 license.
