“…The genus Orius in the family Anthocoridae is common in nature, particularly in areas with high biodiversity, and six species of this genus have been recorded in Turkey (Önder 1982). Both nymphs and adults of the Orius species exhibit zoophagous behaviour, feeding on various insects and mites that are detrimental to plants, including whiteflies, aphids, spider mites, psyllids, Lepidoptera and Coleoptera, with a particular focus on species of thrips (order Thysanoptera) (Riudavets and Castane 1994;Önder 1982;Lodos 1986;Lattin 1999;Pehlivan & Atakan 2020). O. laevigatus, Orius insidiosus (Say), and Orius tristicolor (White) have been commercially used for controlling Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande) in protected crops since 1990 (Chambers et al 1993;Ferragut & Zamora 1994;Disselvet et al 1995;Pozzebon et al 2015).…”

Seasonal distributions and population dynamics of predatory bugs, Orius (Hemiptera: Anthocoridae) species with some harmful insects in crop plants in 2019-2020 Turkey were investigated in Turkey. A total of four Orius species were identified, these are; Orius laevigatus,(Fieber) Orius niger (Wollf) Orius albidipennis (Reuter) and Orius vicinus (Ribaut). The most common species was O. laevigatus, constituting 78.36% of the total adult individuals. Both O. laevigatus and O. niger were relatively more abundant on broad beans and beans than those numbers found in fruit trees and field crops. Very few Orius individuals were recorded on the fruit trees. Orius and thrips individuals were collected mainly from the flowers of the plants, and their population patterns depended on the flowering phenology patterns of the plants. Orius individuals were recorded together with the pest thrips on plants particularly summer and winter vegetables sampled. The total prey (thrips, aphids and leafhoppers) numbers per Orius were lower on broad bean and bean plants. Finally, the number of prey per Orius was 5.83 in the broad bean and 14.33 in the bean plant, indicating thrips in particular had high predation risks due to Orius attacks in these two plant species.

The purpose of the study was to characterize irrigated smallholder agricultural enterprises (ISAEs) in selected areas of Vhembe District, Limpopo Province. The characterization focused on the geophysical environment and on participants in ISAEs. Precipitation was at most 460mmpa for villages along Madimbo Corridor and 701-1380mmpa for those along Mutale Valley, and temperatures were 38.1℃-44.0℃ (Madimbo) and 30.0℃-40.0℃ (Mutale). Groundwater supplemented surface water and was utilized more at Madimbo Corridor compared to Mutale Valley. The study area was characterized as semi-arid to sub-humid, hence technologies for efficient irrigation should be promoted. Participants in ISAEs were female (94.9%), and adult (52.72%) with low education levels (67.7% ≤ secondary education). The majority (88.65%) were not formally employed (54.61% self-employed, 34.04% full-time farmers). Participants experienced some level of poverty, 68.03 percent received low household incomes (R1001-R5000/month), 77 percent received social grants. Interestingly, the majority (65.31%) stayed in multiple-roomed houses, had cement brick walls, and corrugated iron roofs (54.42%), and all had electricity, a stove, and a fridge. Also, majority-owned radio (96.67%), DSTV (87.45%), vehicles (65.56%), and cellphones. Participants mostly provided adequate food supply (91.84%) with three meals/day (79.38%) except during hard times where 49.56 percent provided fewer meals mostly due to delayed readiness of farm produce. Strategies to empower ISAE participants to be more effective should consider their gender, age, education, and economic status estimated by income, asset ownership, and food security.
