Effective microorganisms (EM) consist of a mixture of live cultures of microorganisms, isolated from naturally fertile soils, that are useful during crop production (Mohan, 2008). The principal activity of EM appears to be to increase the bio-diversity of soil microflora, thereby increasing crop yields. Photosynthetic bacteria, the major components of EM, are reported to work synergistically with other microorganisms to support the nutritional requirements of plants and to reduce the incidence of pathogenic microorganisms described EM technology as a technique that supported "natural...

. In den Schlussfolgerungen werden künftige Richtungen und Empfehlungen zu diesem Thema aufgezeigt. Da die Bevölkerung weiter wächst, hat die weltweite Nachfrage nach Fleisch exponentiell zugenommen, was zu zahlreichen Umweltbelastungen führt. Da für die Fleischproduktion große Mengen an Land und Ressourcen benötigt werden, verlagert sich der Schwerpunkt der Lebensmittelindustrie zunehmend auf die Verwendung alternativer Proteinquellen, wie z. B. Insekten, für die Herstellung von Lebensmitteln. Der Verzehr von Insekten ist in den Ländern Zentral- und Westafrikas sowie Südostasiens...

The marketability of the food grains is hampered when insect pests feed on grains and make them unfit for human consumption, leading to huge monetary losses. Losses due to insect infestation under storage can go up to 50 to 60% under extreme situations. Sometimes, the postharvest losses can surpass the losses that crops suffer in the field. Direct losses occur in the form of direct consumption of kernels, while indirect losses include formation of webbing, exuviate, frass, and insect cadavers that significantly hamper seed quality and leave grains unfit for human consumption. Changes in the...

Pests are those species that attack some resource we human beings want to protect, and do it successfully enough to become either economically important or just a major annoyance. They are only a tiny fraction of the insect species around us. Even many of the species we would recognize as important pests only occasionally do significant damage to us or our resources.Natural enemies play an important role in limiting the densities of potential pests. This has been demonstrated repeatedly when pesticides have devastated the natural enemies of potential pests. Insects which were previously of...

Chemical nematicides have been employed with varying degrees of success, but their implementation can be cumbersome, and furthermore they could potentially be neutralizing an otherwise positive effect from the entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN) that coexist with PPNs in soil environments and provide protection for plants against insect pests. Recent research has explored the potential of employing EPNs to protect plants from PPNs, while providing their standard degree of protection against insects. The interactions involved are highly complex, due to both the three-organism system and the...

Abiotic stress factors are environmental conditions that can negatively impact the growth, development, and productivity of plants, animals, and microorganisms. Unlike biotic stresses, which result from interactions with living organisms like pests and pathogens, abiotic stresses are non-living factors originating from the physical and chemical components of the environment. Abiotic stressors can include a wide range of conditions, such as temperature extremes, drought, salinity, heavy metals, radiation, and pollution. Understanding these abiotic stress factors is essential for mitigating...
