Climate change is posing significant challenges to agricultural systems worldwide, with extreme weather events, shifting temperatures and unpredictable precipitation patterns disrupting crop production and threatening food security. In the face of these challenges, building resilient agroecosystems becomes crucial for ensuring sustainable agricultural practices and maintaining productivity. Biological control, a natural method of pest management, has emerged as a promising strategy to enhance climate change adaptation in agriculture. This article explores the concept of biological control and its potential to contribute to climate change adaptation by promoting biodiversity, reducing pesticide use and fostering ecological balance within agroecosystems. Moreover, the article discusses the various approaches and practices in biological control, including the use of beneficial insects, microorganisms and cultural methods. Understanding the role of biological control in climate change adaptation can provide valuable insights for policymakers, farmers and researchers to design and implement sustainable agricultural practices that support ecosystem resilience.
