Oecophylla Smaragdiaa for biological control and pest population in lime Orchard
The most important method of controlling insects, mites, weeds, and plant disease is biological control. The natural enemy of insect pests, also known as a biological control agent, includes predators like Oecophylla smaragdina. The 0. smaragdina is the most effective natural enemy for controlling p...
