Forest Entomology

Forest entomology is the scientific study of insects that live in and affect forest ecosystems. It involves understanding how these insects interact with trees, plants, and other organisms—whether by feeding on trees, pollinating, or acting as pests. This field helps manage forest health, control pest outbreaks, and protect biodiversity. Researchers analyze insect behavior, lifecycle, and impacts to develop sustainable strategies for forest conservation and pest management, ensuring healthy, resilient forests for future generations.
