Summary in English
Natural enemies of agricultural pests are organisms that prey on, parasitize, or infect insects and mites that compete with us for food. They play an important and often unrecognized role in suppressing pest populations, thereby reducing the frequency and severity of pest outbreaks. To ensure that they continue to provide natural control of agricultural pests, it is important to know which they are and what their role is. Only then can we provide an environment suited to conserving them and enhancing their ability to protect our crops.
