Not sure where to start? Watch our demo videos to get familiarized with the CABI BioProtection Portal and visit our Resources to learn the basics of bioprotection, common crop pests, how to select a product, and more.
For example, the introduction of beneficial ladybird predators to combat aphid pests (pictured to the right) is a sustainable preventative measure that can retain ecosystem health while establishing long-lasting crop protection. Unlike many conventional pesticides and herbicides, these products are often pest specific, reducing harm to beneficial insects.
