Fourth-year students in the Department of Agricultural Economics and Cooperation at the Faculty of Agriculture, Food, and Environment at Sana’a University conducted a field visit to the faculty farm as part of the practical lab for the “Economic Entomology” course, supervised by teaching assistant Eng. Mohamed Al-Madani.

During the visit, students observed and identified various agricultural crop pests in their natural environment while studying their economic significance and impact on agricultural production.

The practical session also covered pest prevention and control strategies, highlighting proper techniques to mitigate crop damage, preserve yield quality, and maintain plant health.

This activity is part of the faculty’s dedication to strengthening practical training and connecting classroom theory with agricultural field practices, helping students develop skills in recognizing and managing agricultural pests scientifically.
