Abstract: 24 national and industry standards for forecasting insect pests on different kinds of crops, including rice, wheat, maize, cotton, fruit crops and vegetables were established by NATESC by the end of 2012. Some provincial forecasting standards for other local insect pests were also created by provincial plant protection stations. So far, the national, provincial and industry standards for about 107 species of insect pests have been completed and are applied routinely to pest surveys, monitoring and forecasting work, which will greatly facilitate the extension and implementation of integrated pest management in China.
