Biological Pest Control, Parasitoids and predators, Biodiversity
Egypt

Biography

I am Dr. Hosam El-Gepaly, a Senior Researcher in the Biological Control Department at the Plant Protection Research Institute, ARC, Egypt. With over 20 years of experience in biological pest control, I specialize in integrated pest management (IPM) and the mass production of parasitoids like Trichogramma and Telenomus
As a National Consultant for the FAO, I have contributed to projects combating the Fall Armyworm and promoting sustainable pest control solutions. My research focuses on reducing chemical pesticide use and enhancing biodiversity. I have published numerous scientific papers and actively participate in conferences and workshops on biological control.
My goal is to develop innovative, eco-friendly pest management strategies that improve agricultural sustainability and environmental health.
