Abstract
Organic farming
is potentially useful approach for in situ conservation of biodiversity when the farming
technologies are effective and economically sound. Functional rate of arthropod biodiversity as an index of
biodiversity quality was assessed according to some organi
c farming methods, such as landscape
management and using companion plants in rice and soybean fields. In this study, it is important to select
effective farming technologies for in situ conservation and utilization of functional biodiversity even in organ
ic
farm.
Keywords: Organic farming,
