Israeli Researchers Unveil World's First Insect Radar
(Jewish News-UK) Adam Decker - Israeli researchers at the University of Haifa have unveiled a first-of-its-kind radar that can accurately detect the size and direction of insect swarms to help forewarn farmers and save crops. Prof. Nir Sapir said researchers would be able to "identify pollinating insects that are of great importance for wild plants and agriculture, as well as other insects that cause damage to agriculture, such as various species of moths."
