Sustainable intensification in agricultural systems. (2014, background): “Pathogens, weeds and invertebrates result in up to 30 % losses in particular locations for particular crops (Oerke and Dehne, 2004; Flood, 2010).”
Global status of commercialized biotech/GM crops: 2006. (2006, background): “That is in addition to the estimated losses of 18% for insect pests, and 23% for weeds (Oerke and Dehne, 2004).”
Allelopathy in agro-ecosystems: a critical review of wheat allelopathy-concepts and implications (2016, neutral): “Estimates indicate that on a global scale, insect pests and disease causing pathogens cause a yield reduction of 18 and 15 %, respectively, in major food and cash crops across the world (Oerke and Dehne 2004).”
Evolutionary ecology of plant defences against herbivores (2011, background): “An additional major incentive to studying plant defences against herbivores is the fact that herbivory costs world economies billions of dollars each year in lost revenue related to agriculture, horticulture and forestry (Oerke & Dehne 2004).”
Climate change effects on physiology and population processes of hosts and vectors that influence the spread of hemipteran‐borne plant viruses (2009, background): “Of the latter, those caused by plant viruses are critical to agriculture, as plant viruses constitute one of the limiting factors to agriculture, especially in lesser-developed countries (Waterworth & Hadidi, 1998; Oerke & Dehne, 2004).”

Understanding the agricultural input landscape in Sub-Saharan Africa : recent plot, household, and community-level evidence (2014, background): “Actual losses to major crops from all of these types of “pests” are estimated to be about 30 percent of attainable yields as collected from sources around the world (Oerke and Dehne 2004).”
The Critical Role of Potassium in Plant Stress Response (2013, background): “Plants that are continuously exposed to drought stress can form ROS, which leads to leaf damage [7,13,26] and, ultimately, decreases crop yield.”
