Ecosystem services are the natural processes responsible for clean air, clean water, healthy uncontaminated food and a host of other environmental goods that we take for granted.

Strains of cotton aphid and the green peach aphid were collected from cotton producing faints in eastern Australia. Green peach aphid was rarely collected but resistance to Curacron and Pirimor was documented.
