USDA and Russian Scientists Develop High-Tech Crop Map (Mar 10, 2011)
USDA. Agricultural Research Service.
AgroAtlas is a new interactive website that shows the geographic distributions of 100 crops; 640 species of crop diseases, pests, and weeds; and 560 wild crop relatives growing in Russia and neighboring countries. Downloadable maps and geographic information system software are also available, allowing layering of data, for example, relating major wheat production areas to concentrations of Russian wheat aphids. AgroAtlas also has the potential to aid in the detection and identification of insect pests, pathogens or weeds that have entered -- or could enter -- the U.S. from Russia or neighboring countries. Read more about this research in the article ARS and Russian Scientists Develop "AgroAtlas" With Worldwide Benefits, published in the Mar 2011 issue of Agricultural Research.
