This SBIR Phase I project will develop beneficial insect attractants for the organic farming industry. The semiochemical attractant system being developed will include a powerful synergistic attractant mixture for key predacious insects and a controlled release device to deliver the attractants efficiently.The broader/commercial impact of the project will be to enhance the efficacy of beneficial insects either naturally or artificially applied especially in organic agriculture. Development of this semiochemical attractant for the husbandry of major beneficial insects will be useful for the conservation and augmentation of key wild natural enemies with minimal adverse environmental impact. A significant reduction of pest damage and an increase in organic food production will result.

SBIR一期项目将为有机农业开发有益的昆虫引诱剂。正在开发的符号化学引诱剂系统将包括一种针对主要捕食昆虫的强大的协同引诱剂混合物和一种有效释放引诱剂的控制装置。该项目的更广泛/商业影响将是提高天然或人工应用的益虫的功效，特别是在有机农业中。该引诱剂的研制将有助于在对环境影响最小的情况下保护和增加主要野生天敌的数量。虫害危害的显著减少和有机食品产量的增加将带来结果。
