Diversity and bioindicators of natural enemies in organic paddy fields implementing habitat modification by Setyadin Yuris, Leksono Amin Setyo, Tarno Hagus

“…Results showed that habitat modification with BF balanced the visiting patterns of herbivorous, predatory, parasitoid, and pollinator insects. The importance value index of predatory insects was higher in plots using habitat modification (PV = 44.65%, and PG = 46.04%) compared to plots without habitat modification (KV = 37.71%, and KG = 38.54%). …”

Butterfly Diversity from Farmlands of Central Uganda by M. B. Théodore Munyuli

“…Their protection from degradation should be a priority for policy makers since they support a species-rich community of butterflies pollinating cultivated plants. Farmers are encouraged to protect and increase on-farm areas covered by complex traditional agroforests, linear, and nonlinear seminatural habitats to provide sufficient breeding sites and nectar resources for butterflies.…”
