History
With the rising cost of synthetic chemical pesticides and increasing cases of pesticide resistance, the search for natural biologically based forms of pest management has been a key area of research for the last decade. With the world population rising over 7 billion and the drastic effects of climate change, the need for alternative forms of pest control will become essential. Although insects are key in the performance of many ecosystems, they play a large role in the 35 billion dollars worth of crop that is lost in the United States each year.
Processes (general)
I'm just trying to ruin our wiki here... Introduce processes in controlling insects, weeds etc...
Agricultural Methods
this is an amazing list
- because im very excited about this
- and its easy to do
Insect and weed management in important crops... sustainable agriculture, as a replacement for
Pesticides/herbicides
Types of herbicides.
Species
- Trichoderma spp
- Beauveria bassiana
- Candida oleophila Strain O
