Population modeling as aid to rodent control in the field

Forecasting the damages by voles on plant crops depends on a good forecast of vole population density. Biological work in Vendee from 1959 til 1968 has furnished the fundamentals of a population model. Further work on the relationship between breeding and climate enabled us to set up a practical for...
