Biological control is an environmentally friendly pest management method used in agricultural production to combat harmful insects, mites, and plant diseases through the use of natural enemies such as beneficial insects, predators, parasitoids, and microorganisms. This approach aims to reduce the use of chemical pesticides and plays an important role inorganic farming, greenhouse production, protected cultivation, and sustainable agricultural practices.
In biological control,beneficial insects naturally suppress target pest species while helping maintain ecological balance. This method is one of the key components ofIntegrated Pest Management (IPM) systems and offers a long-term, cost-effective, and sustainable solution.
Who is it suitable for?
Producers engaged inorganic farming
Agricultural enterprises aiming toreduce chemical residue risks
Growers involved ingreenhouse and protected cultivation
Export-oriented producers with strict residue standards
Agricultural companies focused onsustainable and environmentally friendly production
Biological control is particularly effective against common agricultural pests such aswhiteflies, thrips, spider mites, aphids, andTuta absoluta. When applied with proper timing and regular monitoring, it provides ahigh level of pest control success.
