Description:

Despite being the biggest group of organisms inhabiting Earth in both diversity and sheer numbers, insects are barely commercialized. Most of the standard textbooks of applied entomology talk about insect pest management, and when it comes to commercial aspects of insects, only apiculture, sericulture, and lac culture are talked about. This book will help bring other commercial uses of insects and their economic potential to the fore. This will generate interest in further research on the commercial potential of insects, thereby harnessing a much-found resource. The book has the following salient features:

* Encompasses all major aspects of beneficial and commercial insects.

* Deals with edible insects and mass culture of natural enemies and beneficial insects.

* Emphasis on the mass cultivation of beneficial insects for obtaining yields.

* Discusses stingless bees and their products.

* Helps to solve the problem of food scarcity and improve food security.
