Trapview, a global leader in automated pest monitoring and forecasting solutions, has partnered with the Jamaican Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries to enhance the surveillance of quarantine pests. This collaboration makes Jamaica the first Caribbean nation to implement Trapview’s advanced pest monitoring and forecasting technology, strengthening its ability to detect and manage invasive insect species that threaten local agriculture.
Trapview’s solution provides real-time data on pest populations and their development stages, enabling authorities and farmers to make timely and informed intervention decisions.
“We would be able to inform our farmers, put our emergency response plans in place, and act swiftly once the pests come into the country. That is one of the benefits of having these smart traps.”
– Mrs. Barrett Christie, Identifier/Entomologist in the PQPI Unit in Kingston
