Datasets correspond to the results of an investigation that aim to assess the effect of sugar supplementation on the ant, mealybug and predator abundances on pineapples in agricultural systems in La Réunion. The datasets contain also the results of sentinel prey experiments analysed through computer vision technology. One file correspond to the statistical analyses in R language.
