5. Synthesize and summarize output <strong>of</strong> small groups into one big group output. Draw up<br />

conclusions and recommendation from this exercise.<br />

some suggested questions <strong>for</strong> processing discussion<br />

❏ Did you observe different organically-grown vegetable crops infested with numerous insect<br />

pests as well as leafhoppers, planthoppers, aphids, and many s<strong>of</strong>t-bodied insect pests in learning<br />

and adjoining fields?<br />

❏ What control methods were employed by farmers against numerous insect pests as well as<br />

leafhoppers, planthoppers, aphids, and many s<strong>of</strong>t-bodied insect pests infesting their organicallygrown<br />

vegetable crops?<br />

❏ Did you observe farmers producing and using biological control agents to manage numerous<br />

insect pests as well as leafhoppers, planthoppers, aphids, and many s<strong>of</strong>t-bodied insect pests in<br />

their vegetable fields?<br />

❏ Did you observe farmers using earwig (Euborellia annulata) as biological control agent to<br />

manage numerous insect pests as well as leafhoppers, planthoppers, aphids, and many s<strong>of</strong>tbodied<br />

insect pests in their vegetable fields?<br />

❏ Is the use <strong>of</strong> earwig (Euborellia annulata) as biological control agent effective in managing<br />

numerous insect pests as well as leafhoppers, planthoppers, aphids, and many s<strong>of</strong>t-bodied<br />

insect pests in organic vegetable production?<br />

❏ How, how much, and when is the best time to apply earwig (Euborellia annulata) as biological<br />

control agent in organic vegetable production?<br />

❏ Did you observe any innovative procedures in village-<strong>based</strong> biological control agent massproduction<br />

and application used by farmers in organic vegetable production? What benefits<br />

did farmers derive from using biological control agents as pest management strategy in organic<br />

vegetable production?<br />

❏ How did you feel while mass-producing and using earwig (Euborellia annulata)? Was it difficult<br />

to mass-produce and use earwig (Euborellia annulata) as biological control agent in organic<br />

vegetable production?<br />

❏ What other cultural management options can you use to complement using earwig (Euborellia<br />

annulata) as biological control agent in organic vegetable production?<br />
