The potential of selected shade tree species for managing mirids and black pod disease infection in cocoa agroforestry systems in Ghana
Pests and diseases are major determinants of cocoa yield, but continuous synthetic chemical control of cocoa pests contributes to environmental pollution and high production costs. As an alternative, we assessed the influence of eight commonly retained forest tree species on mirid and black pod dise...
