Notice Information
Notice Title
Provision of an AHDB data platform from improved integrated pest management data (IPM).
Notice Description
AHDB is seeking to develop a new programme of activity addressing the detection of pests, weeds and diseases. Monitoring for their presence is a key component of integrated pest management (IPM). Currently, AHDB fund a research project which aims to improve Barley Yellow Dwarf Virus (BYDV) management through the adoption of IPM principles, particularly the use of vector (aphid) monitoring and decision support systems (DSS). The project outputs will include recommendations on the specific components of a cost-effective and practical BYDV monitoring service. AHDB intend to use BYDV as a pilot study to inform the development of data management protocols. Lessons learnt from the pilot will inform AHDB's thinking for a wider monitoring solution for pests, weeds and diseases and analysis and interpretation of the integrated datasets. Currently, there are monitoring services which provide a landscape-scale view of numbers and species of aphids flying. However, information on local aphid numbers and the potential threat from BYDV would be beneficial in improving decision making. In the pilot AHDB intend to support a programme of sampling and testing to provide an indication of aphid and virus pressure at a local (field) scale. This work will be referred to as two components, a pest component and a data component. Suppliers for each component will be expected to work in close co-operation with each other and AHDB. This will include the sharing of sampling protocols and details of any fields where monitoring might take place. The tender is split into two Lots: - Lot 1 Insect and BYDV sampling network - Lot 2 Data component: collection, collation, analytics and outputs AHDB expect that Suppliers may not have the collective expertise both in aphids and the data collection, so AHDB will welcome bids where Suppliers may bid for either both Lots, or separate Lots.
Lot Information
1
AHDB ultimately want to provide UK-wide monitoring activities, however for the pilot AHDB are willing to consider applications covering a more restricted geographical range. The aim will be to determine aphid presence in a wide range of fields to provide information on the variation in BYDV vector pressure. This is a mandatory element of the specification and must be addressed within a Suppliers's tender response and delivered as part of the services. On a subset of sites the Supplier shall conduct more regular and detailed monitoring, including an assessment of whether aphids are carrying BYDV, BYDV symptoms in crops and/or numbers of aphid natural enemies present. Suppliers must specify the number of sites and how frequently they would carry out the more detailed monitoring.
Options: Option for a 1 year extension (comprising 4 x 3 month extension periods)
Renewal: Option for a 1 year extension (comprising 4 x 3 month extension periods)
2AHDB want to be able to address these two questions, focusing on the data requirements for aphids described in the data component. * How can we collect data from a geographical location (field) associated with the aphid pest(s) and the crop? * How can we store and analyse the data and produce output rapidly to provide farmers with a better understanding of the pest incidence and crop health based on aggregated data collected from different sites? The Services provided by the Supplier for Lot 2 shall therefore address the two questions listed above. The Supplier shall use the methods of data collection, collation, analytics and outputs from this tender for a wider range of crop pest, weed and disease monitoring activities. As such, the activity in this component will focus on the aphid data collection, but any solution must be sufficiently flexible to widen the scope to collect data from a broader range of crops, pests, weeds, diseases and beneficial insects.
Options: option for a 1 year extension (comprising 4 x 3 month extension periods)
Renewal: option for a 1 year extension (comprising 4 x 3 month extension periods)
