Arthropod Diversity and Distribution; How do the NRCERS Agricultural Procedures Impact?<strong><strong> </strong></strong>

Abstract

The National Research Centre&amp;rsquo;s experimental research station (NRCERS) locates in Wadi El Natrun, Egypt 30&amp;deg;29'54.22"N 30&amp;deg;19'10.94"E. The NRCERS has various crop yields (vegetables, fruits, ornamental, and field crops) for different experimental treatments. It followed conventional agricultural procedures in vegetation, fertilisation, irrigation, and plant protection. Such policies have not been evaluated for their impacts on arthropod diversity and distribution. Thus, this study conclusion aims to sufficiently map the arthropod species (pest/predators) distribution, measure the biodiversity indices, to the NRCERS agricultural policies to be modified to support arthropod diversity.
