Rearing Cottages for Parasitoids

Producing cottages in farming communities to multiply and release pest-attacking parasitoids

Beneficial parasitoids are insects that attack crop pests by breaking and overtaking their life cycle. This project aims to establish production cottages in farming communities to multiply and release parasitoids that will attack various crop pests. Project leads produce and sell parasitoids to farmers in the local community with the aim to promote sustainable farming processes and reduce the use of chemical pesticides
