Description Crop protection plays a vital and integral role in the modern day agricultural production. The ever increasing demands on yield and the projected short fall in production relative to demands have led to an intensification of farming practices world wide. This in itself has increased the potential for pest damage which is approximatly 13 per cent of total food production (Gatehouse et al., 1993), and hence the need for pest control. Currently the crop protection in such agricultural systems relics almost exclusively on the use of agrochemicals, although a few specific cases do exist where inherent varietal resistance and biological control have heen successfully employed.
