The Composition of Sucking Pests and Entomophages of Orchards

The article presents information about the susceptibility of aphids, spider mites and scale insects from sucking pests that cause serious damage to orchards, and the composition of entomophages in the fight against them.Obtaining a high-quality harvest in gardens is one of the pressing problems; it has been established that sucking pest cause serious damage.Since fruit trees are perennial, they create stable ecological conditions for the development of various pests.Measures to combat pests and diseases are one of the important reserves for increasing fruit yield [3]. Currently, these activities have become an integral part of fruit growing technology.As of 2016, the area of orchards in Uzbekistan was 261.8 thousand hectares, of which 120.5 thousand hectares are seed orchards.44% of the total orchard area is occupied by apple trees.The natural conditions of Uzbekistan are considered the most favorable for fruit tree cultivation.In orchards and vineyards, it is impossible to obtain a high-quality harvest without protecting them from pests and diseases.More than 260 pests and more than 50 diseases have been recorded in fruit and grape orchards in Uzbekistan.One of the main pests causing significant damage to fruit tree yields is the reptile pests (even-winged aphids, scale insects, and spider mites).Sucking insects disrupt the physiological processes of plants during the feeding process.This weakens the plant, disrupts the metabolism of the plant, slows down its growth, and these negative consequences become apparent during the formation of shoots, leaves, flowering, and fruiting.
