The Field Crop Disease and Invertebrate Loss Calculator Web Tool is an interactive online resource showcasing estimates of the yield reduction and economic impact of plant diseases and invertebrate pests over time and location. Accessible through the Crop Protection Network website (https://www.cropprotectionnetwork.org), this free online research tool was developed to inform agronomists and researchers across industry and academia, extension workers, commodity groups, and funding agencies about the impact of crop disease and invertebrate pests. The tool enables widespread user access through commonly used web browsers on computers, tablets, and mobile devices. Yield loss estimates are generally obtained through annual surveys of university-affiliated specialists or others with experience in crop protection. Production data are primarily obtained from U.S. and Canadian government agencies. A detailed understanding of the economic impacts of plant disease and invertebrate pests provides valuable information that can inform the allocation of resources to reduce losses in major field crops.
