Manejo de los Insectos chupadores asociados al cultivo de cannabis medicinal Canabis sativa L.

Cannabis sativa L.1753, also called Indian hemp, is an annual herb grown mainly in Central Asia (India and China), sucking insects are those that, in their larval or adult stages, these insects suck the sap from plants, weakening them and transmitting viral diseases that can have a significant impact on the development of plants in the cultivation of C. sativa Its main sucking insects are aphids (Aphididae), whiteflies (Bemisia tabaci), thrips (Thysanoptera) and mealybugs (Dactylopius coccs) are those that cause the weakening of the plant, which increases its vulnerability to attacks by other organisms where it aims to analyze management alternatives for sucking insects associated with the cultivation of C. sativa This has as its methodology to gather information from current documents, research articles, virtual libraries and websites. The results obtained show that sucking insects are managed using biological, physical, and chemical control methods. Cultural control includes keeping the area free of weeds, crop rotation, and traps. Biological control involves the use of other organisms such as entomopathogenic parasitoids and predators. As a chemical control, having reached the economic thresholds, pyrethroids, organophosphates, or neonicotinoids are used, but it was concluded that integrated pest management is the best option for managing sucking insects because it reduces the negative effects of one approach and has many important benefits, such as the reduction of chemicals.
