Manage pest infestation to protect your yields.
The battle between growers and invasive pests has been a never ending concern from the earliest start of commercial crop production. With increasing market demands, growers now face a bigger challenge to produce crops with little to zero chemical residue levels. The use of biological solutions, especially beneficial insects, plays a pivotal role in an integrated approach towards managing pests effectively and efficiently. Beneficial insects are any of a number of species of insects that perform valued services like pollination and pest control. Biological control is the use by humans of these beneficial insects such as predators and parasitoids, or pathogens such as fungi and viruses, to control unwanted insects, weeds, or diseases.
