ENTOMOPHAGOUS AND ACAROPHAGOUS ORGANISMS – KEY BIOREGULATORS IN THE INTEGRATED PROTECTION OF GREENHOUSE CROPS
Abstract
This review examines the role of entomophagous and acarophagous organisms in
the biological regulation of pests in greenhouse crop production. The paper presents the main
natural enemies, practical applications, and opportunities for integrating biological control with
agronomic practices. The aim is to highlight approaches that contribute to more sustainable and
environmentally responsible management of greenhouse systems
