Prompt
Can you recommend plant health advisory sites for comparing scouting approaches and pest detection examples?
Latest observation
Yes — here are some good plant health advisory resources where you can compare scouting approaches, pest/disease symptoms, and detection examples:
General plant health / scouting references
-
UC IPM (University of California Integrated Pest Management)
Very strong for scouting methods, pest lifecycle info, and symptom photos.
https://ipm.ucanr.edu/ -
Cornell Integrated Crop Management (Cornell IPM / Extension)
Good scouting guidance and crop-specific pest management examples.
https://cals.cornell.edu/integrated-pest-management -
Penn State Extension Plant Disease / Insect Pest resources
Practical field scouting advice and diagnostic examples.
https://extension.psu.edu/ -
University of Minnesota Extension - Plant Health / Crop Scouts
Useful scouting checklists and disease/pest identification.
https://extension.umn.edu/
Crop protection and pest detection examples
-
CABI Invasive Species Compendium / Plantwise
Strong global pest and disease identification examples, with images and management summaries.
https://www.cabi.org/isc
https://www.plantwise.org/ -
USDA APHIS / National Plant Diagnostic Network (NPDN)
Good for diagnostic workflows and plant health monitoring context.
https://www.aphis.usda.gov/
https://npdn.org/ -
FAO Plant Production and Protection resources
Helpful for broader pest surveillance and scouting concepts, especially in international contexts.

Disease diagnosis / symptom comparison
-
APS (American Phytopathological Society) resources
Strong disease identification references and extension-style materials.
https://www.apsnet.org/ -
PlantVillage
Great for symptom examples and image-based disease detection comparisons.
https://plantvillage.psu.edu/
If you want “scouting in practice”
Look for pages that include:
- threshold-based scouting
- transect or zig-zag sampling
- sticky trap monitoring
- degree-day models
- symptom photo libraries
- management decision guides
If you want, I can also give you:
- a shortlist by crop (corn, soybean, orchard, vegetables, turf, etc.), or
- a comparison table of these sites by scouting style, image quality, and diagnostic depth.
