Everything You Need to Know About Agriculture Biological Control Agent

Agricultural biological control is a pest management strategy that involves the usage of natural predators, parasites, and pathogens to control pests and diseases in agricultural systems. This approach relies on the principle of harnessing the power of beneficial organisms to reduce the populations of harmful pests, ultimately minimizing the need for chemical pesticides.

Classification of Biological Control:

• Augmentative Biological Control: Augmentative biological control involves increasing the number of natural enemies or pathogens of the pest.
• Nematodes: The nematodes, roundworms, or eelworms constitute the phylum Nematoda. Species in the phylum inhabit a broad range of environments.
• Predators: Predator Biocontrol is the agent that eats the pest.
• Predatory Mite: The predatory mite Amblyseius swirskii is one of the most successful commercial natural enemies in covered crops.
• Encarsia: It is a tiny wasp that parasitises the eggs of a greenhouse whitefly. It is available commercially and comes on small cards
• Entomopathogenic Nematode: They include predatory mites, insect predators, parasitic wasps, and entomopathogenic (insect-killing) nematodes
• Neoseiulus cucumeris: the cucumeris mite, is a species of predatory mite in the family Phytoseiidae. It is used in biological pest control of western flower thrips in cucumber and some other greenhouse crops.
