6 Conclusion

The field of agroforestry entomology is still virtually unexplored. There are vast possibilities for research in the field. In particular, not enough information is available about the insect pests in agroforestry systems in the tropics. The effect of co-cultivation of crops and trees or shrubs on insect dynamics needs to be studied in different agroforestry systems. The list of aspects that could be studied is very long. Beginning with the collection of information about the insect pests in different agroforestry systems, the many factors that are significant in the complex relationships between plants and insects in every agroforestry system should be studied in detail.
