Shielding Crops From Pests With Cutting-Edge Compound Solution

Agricultural, Industrial & Military, Tech /

Researchers came up with a novel chemical solution based on the scents of predator bugs to repel herbivorous pests and safeguard crops. Herbivorous insects are currently a major danger to farmers’ crop output. Predator insects that feed on herbivorous insects emit smells that the insects can detect. To escape being eaten, bugs change their behavior
