Hi All,

There is an interesting article on the BBC News web site that has a stab 
at listing the world's worst agricultural pests.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-15623490

The author qualifies the article by saying "when I was asked "which are 
the world's worst agricultural pests?' my answer was simply that the 
question cannot be answered." But adds "Scientists working in the field 
may disagree with our nominations; if they do, I welcome them to join 
the debate and share their own ideas, add a comment to this article or 
visit Cabi's Plantwise blog."

So I hope you find it informative and please do visit the Plantwise web 
site too (http://www.plantwise.org/).

Anton
