THE BIOLOGICAL CONTROL OF INSECTS AND THE USE OF OTHER TECHNIQUES THAT CAN BE ALTERNATIVES TO REDUCE PEST PROBLEMS IN CROPS SUCH AS RESURGENCE OR RESISTANCE TO CHEMICALS AS WELL AS THE QUALITY OF THE HARVEST AND THE PRODUCT TO BE CONSUMED SAFER DUE TO THE INDISCRIMINATE USE OF PESTICIDES THAT MAKE IT INDISPENSABLE TO THE STUDY OF THE SPECIES PRESENT IN THE PEPPER CROP BIODIVERSITY EVALUATING BOTH PESTS AS DRIVERS.
THE PRESENT STUDY AIMS TO STUDY BIODIVERSITY AGROECOSYSTEM PEPPER IN LODANA LOCATED IN THE PARISH OF SANTA ANA CANTON OF THE PROVINCE OF MANABÍ, LOCATED A 1°09'51" LATITUD SOUTH LATITUDE AND 80°23'24" WEST LONGITUDE.
