ABSTRACT:
The Aphids cause significant damage with relent losses in crops especially in sugarcane farming worldwide, and, presently it is needful to appreciate eco-friendly compatible management strategies for sustainable and low-invested feasible master plan for insect-pest management which cannot be preceded without natural control through parasitoids. This review paper has been drive to emphasize the connection of various aphidophagous natural opponent (predators, parasitoids and pathogens) for their better implementation with maximal expression in natural and harmless pest management.
