Insects are vital for food production but can also cause significant crop damage, making entomological research crucial for ensuring food security. The core function of this department is the scientific study of insects, which are the most diverse group of animals on Earth, encompassing their biology, behavior, ecology, and interactions with humans and other organisms. These departments focus on areas like crop protection, insect-borne diseases, pollination, pest control, and the broader environmental and health implications of insects, contributing to agriculture field. Those who study entomology are known as entomologists.
