Hi, Dibya! Thank you for telling us about aphids. Pests such as aphids can be deadly to plants, and thus can bring about critical damage to agricultural regions. Many different solutions are being developed, some examples being selective breeding and competition. Such use of biological engineering being used to solve agricultural problems is very promising.

Hi Dibya, Thanks for sharing picture of sap sucking insects. They harm and damage crucifers by various methods. They weaken plants, resulting in leaf distortion and lower root yields. We have to think about how to reduce them and protect crucifers from damage. Thanks for sharing :)
