Stored product insects, produce acoustic emissions by moving, feeding or ovipositing inside the grain mass. These sounds can be used not only for detection purposes, but also for population density estimation. Acoustic emissions of adults of Acanthoscelides obtectus (Coleoptera: Bruchidae) and Callosobruchus maculatus (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) were recorded infesting various pulses in varying population densities from 1 to 500 adults/kg product. The acoustic analysis system is being described. Population density, type of grain and pest species had significant influence on the number of sounds. The system was 100% precise in negative predictions and considerably successful in positive predictions. The system was very accurate (80-100%) in detecting insect presence even in the “critical” density of 1 adult/kg product, the most common threshold for classifying a stored mass as “infested” or “not infested”. Our study suggests that automatic monitoring of the infestation state in bulk grain is feasible in small containers. This kind of service can assist reliable decision making if it can be transferred to larger storage establishments (eg. silos). Our results are discussed on the basis of enhancing the use of acoustic sensors as a decision support system in stored product IPM.
