Graph demonstrating the relationship between the economic threshold (ET) and the economic injury level (EIL). The pest population crosses the ET twice (noted by two arrows). Here, management activity is necessary to prevent the pest population from reaching the EIL. When the EIL is reached (right-most arrow), the colony’s health/productivity decreases to the point that the beekeeper experiences an economic loss.
