The feasibility of classical biological control of two major cowpea insect pests
Biological control, as a key component of biointensive IPM in cowpea, is evaluated for its practical feasibility. The case study of one of the major insect pests, the bean flower thrips Megalumthrips sjosredti (Trybom) (Thysanoptera, Thripidae), is used to indicate the most important criteria for th...
