Agricultural Entomology

Agricultural Entomology is a branch of entomology that specifically focuses on the study of insects and their impact on agriculture. It plays a crucial role in the sustainable management of agricultural ecosystems, as insects can significantly affect crop yields, food production and economic viability.

Agricultural entomologists work to understand insect biology, behavior and interactions with plants, as well as develop effective and environmentally friendly strategies to control insect pests.

Agricultural entomologists study the biology, behavior and ecology of insects to develop effective and sustainable pest management strategies. They work to find ways to control insect pests while minimizing the use of harmful chemicals and promoting beneficial insects like pollinators. Through research and innovation, agricultural entomology contributes to the development of resilient and environmentally friendly agricultural systems that ensure food security and economic viability for farmers.
