In this paper, the authors are exploring emerging trends in data utilising longitudinal analysis.Longitudinal studies are typically observational studies wherein a participant's outcomes, and possible treatments or exposures, are collected at multiple times on the same individual. These studies have no limit on the timespan and as such, can last up to several decades. Though shorter time frames are not recommended, the key is for the study to extend beyond a singular time point, ideally three or more[1]. Conducting longitudinal studies are beneficial as it allows one to follow subjects in real time, which allows researchers to have a better understanding of the sequence of events[1].

The control of invasive species in crops with low tolerance are seen as a public good. This makes it a collective responsibility led by government. This is done directly through public expenditure on control measures or indirectly through incentives to people whose actions may be a contributing factor to the problem. The risks associated with invasive species have been increasing especially with globalization but are changing in nature thus warranting novel strategies for their management.
