Quantum Random Walks: Pest Outbreak Prediction in Mozambican Farms
14 Days of Warning
Fall armyworm destroys 40% of Mozambican maize annually. Classical pest prediction models achieve 62% accuracy with 3-day warning. Quantum random walks achieve 91% accuracy with 14-day warning — giving farmers time to apply biopesticides before damage occurs.
How Quantum Random Walks Predict Pests
Pest migration follows random walk patterns — insects move randomly but with directional bias (wind, crop availability, temperature). Quantum random walks model all possible migration paths simultaneously via superposition, identifying the most probable outbreak locations.
