Numerous plant diseases caused by pathogens like bacteria, viruses, fungi protozoa and pathogenic nematodes are propagated through media such as water, wind and other intermediary carries called vectors, and are therefore referred to as vector borne plant diseases.Insect vector borne plant diseases are currently a major concern due to abundance of insects in the tropics which impacts negatively on food security, human health and world economies.Elimination or control of which can be achieved through understanding the process of propagation via Mathematical modeling.However existing models are linear and rarely incorporates climate change parameters to improve on their accuracy.Yields of plants can reduce significantly if they are infected by vectors borne diseases whose vectors have very short life span without necessarily inducing death to plants.Despite this, there is no reliable developed mathematical model to describe such dynamics.
