Journal of Pest Science, 2023 One of the main negative effects of climate change on biological pest control is alteration of relationships between insect pests and their natural enemies (both entomophagous and entomopathogenic).

Pest control using farming awareness: impact of time delays and optimal use of biopesticides [PDF]
Chaos Solitons Fractals 146 (2021), Art. 110869, 11 pp, 2021 We investigate a mathematical model in crop pest management, considering plant biomass, pest, and the effect of farming awareness. The pest population is divided into two compartments: susceptible pest and infected pest. We assume that the growth rate of self-aware people is proportional to the density of healthy pests present in the crop field ...

Controlling crop pest with a farming awareness based integrated approach and optimal control [PDF]
Comput. Math. Methods 3 (2021), no. 6, Paper e1194, 1--24, 2021 We investigate a mathematical model in crop pest controlling, considering plant biomass, pest, and the effect of farming awareness. The pest population is divided into two compartments: susceptible pests and infected pests. We assume that the growth rate of self-aware people is proportional to the density of susceptible pests existing in the crop arena.

Dynamics of a Double-Impulsive Control Model of Integrated Pest Management Using Perturbation Methods and Floquet Theory [PDF]
Axioms 12 (2023), no. 4, Art. 391, 14 pp, 2023 We formulate an integrated pest management model to control natural pests of the crop through the periodic application of biopesticide and chemical pesticides. In a theoretical analysis of the system pest eradication, a periodic solution is found and established. All the system variables are proved to be bounded.

Microorganisms and Biological Pest Control: An Analysis Based on a Bibliometric Review
Agronomy, 2020 The use of microorganisms for biological pest control as biological control agents (BCAs) and biopesticides was developed worldwide in the 1960s. Despite the abundance of reviews published on this topic, no meta-analysis using bibliometric tools has been

Biological Control of Pests [PDF]
, 2011 Modern era is witnessing versatile application and utilization of prophecies, processes, and products of sustainable agriculture that pose minimum or negligible negative impacts on environment. Use of microorganisms for curbing the attack of plant pathogenic organisms/pests forms the foremost limb of integrated pest management and is responsible for ...
