Estimation of economic losses associated with the presence of Amaranthus palmeri in Aragon

Abstract

La detección de Amaranthus palmeri en Aragón ha impulsado los esfuerzos por identificar cuáles son las mejores estrategias para su control en las parcelas infestadas y para evitar su expansión a otras zonas. Junto con los diferentes ensayos en invernadero y en campo desarrollados en el CITA, el Centro de Sanidad y Certificación Vegetal lleva a cabo una importante labor de prospección que conlleva considerables costes para la administración. En este trabajo se recopila toda esta información con el objetivo de estimar las pérdidas asociadas a la invasora en las zonas afectadas, incluyendo las pérdidas de rendimiento en función de la densidad de A. palmeri, los costes para el agricultor asociados a las diferentes medidas de control en su parcela y los costes relacionados con las tareas de prospección y divulgación que está asumiendo la administración. Para ello se incorporan los datos de los ensayos y prospecciones realizados en los dos primeros años de ensayos.

The detection of Amaranthus palmeri in Aragon has encouraged efforts to identify the best strategies for its control in infested plots and to prevent its spread to other areas. Together with the different greenhouse and field trials carried out at CITA, the Center for Plant Health and Certification developed an important survey work that entails considerable costs for the administration. This paper collects all this information with the aim of estimating the losses associated with the invader in the affected areas, including yield losses depending on the density of A. palmeri, the costs for the farmer associated with the different control measures in his plot and the costs related to the survey and dissemination tasks that are being assumed by the administration. For this purpose, the data from the field trials and prospections carried out in the first two years of testing are incorporated.
