Sustainable pest management strategies on Family Pantatomidae through secondary metabolites of Gliricidia sepium (Jacq.) Steud and Zanthoxylum piperitum (L. )

Description: Pantatomid pests are widespread sucking insects that devour grains, important crops, and fruit-bearing plants, causing significant economic losses The major goal of this study is to protect our environment from pesticides by introducing biopesticide. The study will be conducted to observe the latent effects on human health, soil fertility, effect on non-targeted sites, and, related ecosystems and safety measures of the biopesticide.

Socio-Economic Benefits: Cost Savings for Farmers, Enhanced Agricultural Productivity, Healthier Work Environment, Improved Food Safety, Job Creation in Biopesticide Production, Long-Term Soil Fertility
