Abstract. Locusts are an especially
dangerous pest of crops, given the birth rate, speed of movement, as well as
the complete destruction of green plants along the migration route. To combat
the locust, agricultural and chemical measures are carried out, which in some
cases are associated with negative consequences. In order to successfully
combat locusts, it is necessary first of all to have reliable information about
the sites of oviposition. Such information is called upon to be given a survey
on egg capsules location, but it is, as practice shows, the most time consuming
and informative. Therefore, the task of developing remote methods of detection
of location of locust egg capsules is urgent.
Key words: locusts, methods of
control, detection methods for locust egg capsules location, radar and
radiometric determinations of egg capsules location, pheromones, mass
chromatography methods.
