Amid the growing environmental threat posed by the invasive "water hyacinth" to water flow and agricultural resources in the rivers and streams of the country's south, a scientific proposal has emerged offering a sustainable solution based on ecological balance. Agricultural experts have recommended the use of the "water hyacinth weevil" as a biological control agent that has proven its local and international effectiveness in reducing the density of this pest, particularly after the declining viability of mechanical removal methods. These insects weaken the plant's ability to grow and float by feeding on its leaves and boring into its crowns. Specialists have called on relevant authorities to adopt this biological solution and deploy it in affected areas as part of an integrated management strategy to save water resources from suffocation and protect the agricultural sector.
