Ecological engineering data consolidated for planthopper project

The ADB-IRRI Rice Planthopper Project held its final data synthesis workshop to consolidate data on arthropod biodiversity collected from experiment sites in the past two years.



Research partners came from China, Thailand, Vietnam, the Philippines (PhilRice), and IRRI and were taught to sort ecological engineering data. A series of lectures and hands-on exercises on summary statistics, inferential analyses, biodiversity statistics and analyses were also held.

The partners worked on their respective countries’ data sets as well as combined these data sets for cross-country comparisons.

The workshop was held on 29–31 July 2013 at IRRI.
