Silent Guardians: AI and the Future of Pest Control

Silent Guardians explores the dawn of a new era in pest control, where artificial intelligence meets ancient challenges. From AI-driven drones in Californian orchards to mobile apps used by Kenyan farmers, the book uncovers how technology is transforming our global fight against pests that threaten crops, health, and ecosystems. Drawing on two years of research, international case studies, and expert interviews, Prof. Dr. Walid Kaakeh offers a compelling narrative of how machine learning, robotics, and predictive analytics are reshaping pest management. But this revolution is not without its risks: data inequities, algorithmic bias, and deep ethical questions demand urgent attention. Organized into four parts-foundations, tools, challenges, and future directions-Silent Guardians invites farmers, technologists, policymakers, and citizens into a conversation about responsible innovation. It is not just a call for smarter pest control, but a vision for intelligent, ethical coexistence with the natural world.
