Abstract

Insects play a pivotal role in agriculture, acting both as beneficial pollinators and as destructive pests. Pollinators, such as bees, butterflies, and other insects, are essential for the successful reproduction of many crops, enhancing biodiversity and contributing significantly to global food production. Conversely, insect pests pose substantial threats to agricultural productivity by damaging crops, leading to economic losses and increased reliance on chemical pesticides. This duality underscores the complex interplay between insects and agricultural systems, necessitating integrated pest management strategies that balance the promotion of pollinators and the control of pests. Understanding and managing these dual roles are crucial for sustainable agricultural practices, ensuring food security while maintaining ecological balance.
