Brief Statement of research work

My research focuses on Integrated Pest Management (IPM), insecticide resistance, and sustainable pest control strategies. I am particularly interested in exploring eco-friendly alternatives to synthetic pesticides, such as botanical extracts and biological control agents, to mitigate resistance development and environmental risks. Additionally, my work examines the ecotoxicological impacts of insecticides on non-target organisms and ecosystems to promote sustainable agricultural practices. Through my research, I aim to contribute to the development of effective, environmentally safe, and economically viable pest management solutions.
