Biological control offers numerous advantages, including:
Environmental Safety: It reduces the need for chemical pesticides, lowering the risk of contaminating ecosystems and non-target species. Sustainability: By relying on natural processes, biological control supports sustainable agriculture practices. Reduced Health Risks: Minimizing chemical pesticide use decreases potential health risks associated with exposure to toxic substances. Cost-Effectiveness: Although the initial setup can be costly, biological control can be more cost-effective in the long term as it reduces the need for repeated chemical applications.
