This journal focuses on applied entomology and zoology, with a particular emphasis on pest management and biological control. Recent articles investigate the efficacy of insecticides and biological agents against agricultural pests such as longhorn beetles and rice bugs. Research also explores the ecological factors influencing pest populations, including temperature and host plant interactions, and the development of forecasting methods for insect activity.
