Abstract (EN)

In this research, it is aimed to examine methods of pest control in organic agriculture. Within the scope of pest control methods in natural life, ecological environment sensitivity should be taken into consideration and natural control methods should be carried out primarily. Therefore, the natural production of organic farming activities occupy an important place in people's habitats. For this reason, pests are fought without disturbing the natural balance. Natural control methods are applied instead of pesticides in organic control. Some of these methods have been found to be successful in using pest repellent, remover and pheromone traps. As it is known, in order to meet the most basic food and clothing needs of humanity, it is clear that there is an increase in agricultural production in parallel with the increasing world population. Pest control methods occupy an important place in organic and organic agriculture both in terms of increase in yield and environmental and human health. In this context, the aim of this study is to examine the legal regulations, cultural control, physical and mechanical control, biological control, biotechnical control, genetic control, chemical control, integrated control and organic farming and control methods in organic agriculture within the scope of organic pest control methods. Key Words: Organic Agriculture, Ecological Agriculture, Biotechnology, Natural Control.
