In this document we want to determine the pest insects that attack the Chinese potato crop (Colocasia esculenta L). Like other crops, Chinese potato crops are affected by numerous insect pests that cause considerable economic losses and increase production costs. If we carry out a correct identification in the crop and carry out good control of the main pests that cause damage to the Chinese potato crop, the crop will have better productive potential in both yield and fruit quality. This investigative document, presented as a practical component, was developed through the compilation of all types of information, carrying out detailed research on the different free access websites, scientific articles, degree thesis, sources and bibliographic documentation available on different platforms. digital. Among the main pests of economic interest in Chinese potatoes, we have: Chinese potato beetle (Leptinotarsa decemlineata), Blind hen: (Phylophaga ssp), Wireworm: (Aeolus ssp), Termites: (Reticulitermes lucifugus). It is recommended to carry out biological control using the eggs of parasitoid and predatory insects such as the Philippine Cyrtorhinus. Fumigation with 1% BHC at 7-8 kg/h is also effective. It was concluded that in the Chinese potato, insecticides are not available on a large scale for use in all stages of plantation development, since they cause negative aspects in the environmental ecology and are highly residual in the fruit. ; In this document we want to determine the pest insects that attack the Chinese potato crop (Colocasia esculenta L).
