Feeding beneficials:
Is it really worth it?

"Why should I feed my beneficials? I have more than enough pests!"

It's a fair question, and one we often hear from growers. If pests are already present in your greenhouse, why would you need to provide additional food for beneficial organisms?

In this webinar, we'll take a closer look at the biology behind feeding beneficial mites and other natural enemies. We'll explore when supplementary feeding makes sense, how it can strengthen your IPM programme and whether it could even help reduce costs over the growing season.
