Population dynamics is rarely considered in current pest control programs. Instead of the usual aim of killing a certain percentage of the target species, we demonstrate here the importance of considering dynamic aspects of populations when attempting management (e.g., pest control) of vertebrate populations. Conceptually we treat heterogeneous landscapes with pest-suitable patches intermingled with non-suitable areas. These pest-suitable patches are also regarded as separate objects for local pest management. We discuss density-independent and density-dependent natality and mortality rates for separate patches. In the landscape context we treat immigration into, and extinction in local patches. In this analysis we also consider the importance of transition habitats for local and regional population development.

We summarize our conclusions in a list of features which ought to be examined before a species' pest status can be evaluated and management programs are planned. Important information for such a purpose is the form and magnitude of natural mortality rates as functions of density, magnitude of equilibrium densities, the occurrence of presaturation dispersal or not, and the costs of reducing natality and of increasing mortality. Due to the immature state of population ecology, we emphasize that our suggestions have to be regarded as hypotheses to be tested in actual management situations.

在目前的害虫控制计划中,很少考虑种群动态。与通常杀死一定比例的目标物种不同,我们在这里展示了在尝试管理(例如害虫控制)脊椎动物种群时考虑种群动态方面的重要性。从概念上讲,我们将适合害虫的斑块与不适合害虫的区域混合在一起来处理异质景观。这些适合虫害的斑块也被视为当地虫害管理的单独对象。我们讨论了不同斑块的密度无关和密度相关的出生率和死亡率。在景观的背景下,我们将在局部斑块中处理移民和灭绝。在这一分析中,我们还考虑了过渡生境对地方和区域人口发展的重要性。我们总结了我们的结论,在评估一个物种的有害生物状况和制定管理方案之前,应该检查的特征列表。实现这一目的的重要信息是自然死亡率的形式和大小作为密度的函数,平衡密度的大小,是否发生过饱和扩散,以及降低出生率和增加死亡率的代价。由于种群生态学的不成熟状态,我们强调,我们的建议必须作为假设,在实际管理情况中进行检验。

Soil productivity aspects of agri-silviculture in the West African rain forest zone 西非热带雨林地区农林业的土壤生产力方面
Pub Date : 1981-10-01 DOI: 10.1016/0304-3746(81)90006-8

The rain forest in West Africa is dominated by ferralitic soils, which are old, highly weathered and low in nutrient reserves and cation exchange capacity. Their fertility is mainly dependent on a delicately balanced cycle of organic matter.

Agri-silviculture as practised in this area is held to be a progressive variant of shifting cultivation in that it encourages multiple use of the land and immediate reforestation of the sites after crop harvest while providing the forest owner/cultivator with extra income from sales of poles and timbers.

Little attention has been given to the soil, which is inherently poor and further impoverished by export of portions of the meagre nutrient reserve. Drawing on various sources, this paper examines the impact of clearing and burning, cultivation and cropping and the monospecific tree fallows, on the productive potentials of these soils. It is concluded that much has still to be learnt of the restoration of soil fertility under short rotation crops, the loss of nutrients during cropping and the behaviour and response of ferralitic soils to various intensities of cropping and management methods. Some possible topics for research are suggested.

西非雨林主要是铁素体土壤,这些土壤陈旧,风化程度高,营养储备和阳离子交换能力低。它们的肥力主要依赖于有机物质的微妙平衡循环。在这个地区实行的农业-造林被认为是轮作耕作的一种渐进形式,因为它鼓励土地的多种利用,并在作物收获后立即重新造林,同时为森林所有者/耕种者提供销售杆子和木材的额外收入。很少注意土壤,它本来就很贫瘠,而且由于部分贫瘠的营养储备的出口而进一步贫瘠。利用各种资源,本文研究了清理和焚烧、种植和种植以及单一树木休耕对这些土壤生产潜力的影响。结论是,关于短期轮作作物下土壤肥力的恢复、种植期间养分的损失以及铁素体土壤对各种种植强度和管理方法的行为和反应,仍有许多需要了解的地方。提出了一些可能的研究课题。

The opportunity presented by the introduction of a coal-based granular formulation of the carbamate nematocide, aldicarb for use on sugar beet and potatoes in the United Kingdom has been used to evaluate a number of new methods for the assessment of the environmental hazard presented by pesticides. In an intensive field trial with sugar beet, well established biological procedures for recording changes in animal populations and behaviour were combined with a planned programme involving the sampling of animals, plants and soil. Emphasis was placed on sampling and observing mammals in addition to birds which have been more extensively studied in the past. The samples were submitted to a variety of chemical and biochemical analyses designed to reveal the extent to which the pesticide was distributed temporally and spatially and the effects it produced on individuals. The results indicate that although the pesticide is not persistent, it is mobile especially in wet soil, systemic in plants and can be found widely in the local vertebrate fauna for up to 90 days after application. Specific hazards were identified as arising from the ingestion of uncovered granules and from worms containing residues coming to the surface following application in wet conditions.

Subsequently a surveillance exercise was mounted on the commercial use of the pesticide at eight sites where sugar beet and potatoes were grown. The hazards identified in the field trial were confirmed and their practical importance assessed, resulting in modifications to the application method in order to eliminate them.

The value of the various methods employed in the trials and the significance of the results are discussed. It is concluded that the approach used will find wider and more general use in assessing the environmental hazard posed by new pesticides.

在联合王国引进了用于甜菜和土豆的氨基甲酸酯类杀线虫剂、涕灭威的煤基颗粒配方所提供的机会,已被用来评价一些评估农药造成的环境危害的新方法。在用甜菜进行的密集田间试验中,已建立的记录动物种群和行为变化的生物学程序与涉及动物、植物和土壤取样的计划方案相结合。除了过去被广泛研究过的鸟类外,重点放在哺乳动物的抽样和观察上。这些样本被提交进行各种化学和生化分析,旨在揭示农药在时间和空间上分布的程度,以及它对个人产生的影响。结果表明,该农药虽不具有持久性,但在湿润土壤中具有流动性,在植物体内具有系统性,在施用后90 d内可广泛存在于当地脊椎动物群中。确定的具体危害是由于摄入未覆盖的颗粒和在潮湿条件下使用后含有残留物的蠕虫到达表面而引起的。随后,在8个种植甜菜和土豆的地点对农药的商业使用进行了监测。对现场试验中发现的危害进行了确认,并对其实际重要性进行了评估,从而修改了应用方法,以消除这些危害。讨论了试验中采用的各种方法的价值和结果的意义。结论是,所采用的方法将在评估新农药造成的环境危害方面得到更广泛和更普遍的应用。

Total nonstructural carbohydrates of one temperate and two tropical grasses under varying clipping and soil moisture regimes 一种温带和两种热带禾草在不同修剪和土壤湿度下的总非结构性碳水化合物
Pub Date : 1981-10-01 DOI: 10.1016/0304-3746(81)90003-2

The distribution of total nonstructural carbohydrate (TNC) concentration and accumulation was analysed in various components of three selected grasses, a perennial C4 (Dichanthium annulatum) and two annuals, Echinochloa colonum (C4) and Polypogon monspeliensis (C3). The first two species were grown during dry summer and first and third during the winter season. Three moisture regimes were chosen, viz. full field capacity, half field capacity and unirrigated condition. The plants were clipped three times; each time 40 and 80% of the current live green was removed. In all the four instances, the TNC levels increased with greater soil moisture availability. Dichanthium grown in winter showed a drastic reduction in both concentration and accumulation due to soil moisture deficit while irrigated plants reflected higher TNC compared to Polypogon. Dichanthium grown in the summer had a higher value of TNC than Echinochloa in all the components. Clipping reduced the TNC levels in all the instances except in the spike. The extent of recovery from clipping seemed to depend upon the phenophase; plants in vegetative growth recovered earlier in summer Dichanthium compared to Echinochloa and Polypogon in which spike development delayed the build-up of TNC in the leaves.

分析了多年生C4双硫磷(Dichanthium annulatum)和一年生棘球藻(Echinochloa colonum, C4)和monspeliensis (Polypogon monspeliensis, C3) 3种禾草不同组分中总非结构碳水化合物(TNC)的浓度和积累分布。前两种生长在干燥的夏季,第一种和第三种生长在冬季。选择了三种水分状态,即满田、半田和不灌溉条件。这些植物被剪了三次;每次都有40%和80%的活绿被移除。在所有四个例子中,TNC水平随着土壤湿度的增加而增加。由于土壤水分亏缺,冬季生长的双硫磷浓度和积累量均急剧下降,而灌溉植株的TNC高于水草。夏季生长的双硫磷各组分的TNC值均高于紫藻。除尖峰外,剪辑降低了所有实例的TNC水平。剪枝恢复的程度似乎取决于物候期;营养生长的植物在夏季恢复得较早,与棘藻和水蛭相比,棘藻的穗发育延迟了TNC在叶片中的积累。

The ecological basis for the application of traditional agricultural technology in the management of tropical agro-ecosystems 传统农业技术应用于热带农业生态系统管理的生态基础

The rural inhabitants (campesinos) of the lowland tropical region of southeastern Mexico have managed their traditional agro-ecosystems for centuries with a focus on sustaining yields on a long term basis rather than maximizing them in the short term. Recently introduced agricultural technology in the region has been rapidly displacing and even eliminating local practices in favor of large-scale commercial farming and cattle raising, yet without achieving the production levels originally proposed. This is accompanied by a loss of diversity in local cropping systems, leading to an ever-increasing dependence on imported food products, poorer nutrition, and degradation of natural resources.

Modular production units are proposed in order to help achieve once again the diversity and stability of productivity originally characteristic of the traditional agro-ecosystems. The primary focus of the units center around the application of ecological principles with the incorporation of empirical knowledge of varieties and practices still extant in the region. The basic structure of the units is described.

The ecological processes seen to be functioning in local agro-ecosystems are also applied in the modular units. This includes high species diversity in both time and space, high rates of biomass accumulation, closed nutrient cycling, and biological control mechanisms for weeds, pests, and disease. The perspectives for such systems of production are discussed.

几个世纪以来,墨西哥东南部低地热带地区的农村居民(campesinos)管理其传统农业生态系统的重点是长期维持产量,而不是在短期内实现产量最大化。该地区最近引进的农业技术正在迅速取代甚至消除当地的做法,以支持大规模的商业农业和养牛,但没有达到最初提出的生产水平。与此同时,当地种植系统的多样性丧失,导致对进口食品的依赖日益增加,营养状况恶化,自然资源退化。模块化生产单元的提出是为了帮助再次实现传统农业生态系统原有特征的生产力多样性和稳定性。这些单元的主要重点是围绕生态原则的应用,并结合该地区仍然存在的品种和实践的经验知识。介绍了机组的基本结构。在当地农业生态系统中起作用的生态过程也应用于模块化单元。这包括在时间和空间上高度的物种多样性、高生物量积累率、封闭的养分循环以及对杂草、害虫和疾病的生物控制机制。讨论了这种生产系统的前景。

The perspectives for such systems of production are discussed.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100066,"journal":{"name":"Agro-Ecosystems","volume":"7 3","pages":"Pages 173-185"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1981-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/0304-3746(81)90001-9","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74490714","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
