A good approximation of the degree-days accumulated for a pest can be calculated by knowing: The identity and life cycle of the pest and the crop. When to start accumulating degree-days for a pest. The minimum and maximum temperatures at which the pest will develop. The highest and lowest temperatures in the field or orchard during pest development.
Growing degree days (GDD), also called growing degree units (GDUs), are a heuristic tool in phenology.GDD are a measure of heat accumulation used by horticulturists, gardeners, and farmers to predict plant and animal development rates such as the date that a flower will bloom, or a crop will reach maturity.owever, some warm temperate and tropical plants do have significant requirements for days above 30 Â°C to mature fruit or seeds. For example, a day with a high of 23 Â°C and a low of 12 Â°C (and a base of 10 Â°C) would contribute 7.5 GDDs.
