A predator–prey population dynamics simulation for biological control of Frankliniella occidentalis (Western Flower Thrips) by Orius laevigatus in strawberry plants

The use of predatory insect species to control agricultural pests is a key aspect of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) that can help to reduce the use of chemical pesticides. A simulation model that captures the population dynamics and interactions of this predator–prey system can serve as a valuable...
