The sustainability of biological control in agriculture requires improving the characteristics of agroecosystems as an appropriate habitat for these organisms, whether they are bioproducts used augmentatively or through the conservation of natural enemies that inhabit the systems. Because the agroecological transition of agricultural production leads to the transformation of agricultural lands, ecological functions are facilitated that contribute to building capacities for greater effectiveness of biological control and ecological self-regulation. Experiences on the contribution of the agroecological transition to biological control in Cuban agriculture are systematized in this article.
