Question

In biological farming, how are pests managed rather than controlled?

Options

• They are completely eradicated from the field

• They are kept at manageable levels through natural checks and balances within the ecosystem

• They are physically removed by hand labor

• They are prevented from entering the field through barriers

Answer 1

In biological farming, pests are not necessarily eradicated; they are kept at manageable levels through natural checks and balances within the ecosystem. A biologically balanced field supports both pests and their natural predators, helping maintain a sustainable system.
