Question

Is biological control effective than chemical control of crop protection?

Answer 1

Answer:

No

Explanation:

There are different ways or methods of protecting crops from pest and disease infestation. Two of those ways as mentioned in this question are the chemical control and biological control. Biological control of crop protection involves the use of natural enemies of crop pests, which happens to be living or biotic organisms while chemical control entails the use of pesticides and herbicides to control crop pests and diseases.

Among these two methods, the chemical control is more effective because it yields instantaneous results and gets rid of pests and diseases faster. However, in terms of sustainability, the biological control method is more eco-friendly. Hence, based on this question, biological is not more effective than chemical control of crop protection.
