About sustainable agriculture...BIOPESTICIDES.

A growing number of farmers is realizing how important is to protect the environment, so they are starting to use biopesticides and biological control agents, such as plants, bacteria, fungi, predatory and parasitic insects. 
These methods allow to create a compendium between minimum crop losses and a greater protection of the environment. 
Of course, biopesticides are less harmful to humans and break down faster than typical agrochemicals. 
Some fungi are even good for the soil, as they liberate its nutrients which promote plant growth.
