Management of cotton bollworns using predators ants

Insect pests are the most important production constraints in Uganda. American bollworms, spiny boll worms and pink boll worms are among the ten insect pests, which are feeding and damaging flower buds, flowers, and young and maturating bolls. This is causing plant abortions, amounting to up to 87 percent resulting to yield reduction and income for the farmer. The following technology from The National Agricultural Research Organisation (NARO) describes how to use predator ants as a biological means to suppress bollworms.
