Description
The book summarizes the history of biological control in Latin America and the Caribbean.
Few publications provide historical detail and the records are, therefore, fragmented until now.
By bringing information together in this book, we offer a more complete picture of important developments in biological control on this continent.
There are a wealth of text, tables and references about the history of such projects, and which were successful and which failed.
This will help plan future biocontrol projects. An overview is provided of the current situation in biological control for many Latin American and Caribbean countries, revealing an astonishing level of practical biological control applied in the region, making it the largest area under biological control worldwide.
The final part describes new developments and speculates about the future of biological control in Latin America and the Caribbean.
