0:00:12.839,0:00:15.173 How many of you actually love bugs? 0:00:15.807,0:00:16.878 Just raise your hand. 0:00:16.919,0:00:20.319 Love bugs - I mean,[br]maybe not love - fond of bugs. 0:00:21.057,0:00:24.457 Okay. Well, I would say[br]roughly around 10 percent. 0:00:24.541,0:00:27.474 Something like that.[br]That's not bad at all. 0:00:28.100,0:00:30.099 I'm a bug lover, myself... 0:00:30.123,0:00:31.876 Not from childhood, by the way, 0:00:31.900,0:00:33.470 but rather late. 0:00:34.497,0:00:35.876 When I bachelored, 0:00:35.900,0:00:38.593 majoring in zoology[br]at Tel Aviv University, 0:00:38.617,0:00:40.754 I kind of fell in love with bugs. 0:00:40.778,0:00:42.516 And then, within zoology, 0:00:42.540,0:00:45.680 I took the course[br]or the discipline of entomology, 0:00:45.704,0:00:47.955 the science of insects. 0:00:48.544,0:00:51.742 And then I thought to myself,[br]how can I be practical 0:00:51.766,0:00:54.742 or help in the science of entomology? 0:00:55.100,0:00:58.333 And then I moved to the world[br]of plant protection... 0:00:58.357,0:01:00.859 Plant protection from insects, 0:01:00.883,0:01:02.697 from bad bugs. 0:01:02.721,0:01:05.075 And then within plant protection, 0:01:05.099,0:01:09.361 I came into the discipline[br]of biological pest control, 0:01:09.385,0:01:11.075 which we actually define 0:01:11.099,0:01:14.076 as the use of living organisms 0:01:14.100,0:01:18.600 to reduce populations[br]of noxious plant pests. 0:01:18.624,0:01:21.726 So it's a whole discipline[br]in plant protection 0:01:21.750,0:01:25.207 aimed at the reduction of chemicals. 0:01:25.996,0:01:28.042 And biological pest control, by the way, 0:01:28.066,0:01:30.834 or these "good bugs"[br]that we are talking about, 0:01:30.858,0:01:34.690 they've existed in the world[br]for thousands and thousands of years, 0:01:34.714,0:01:36.317 for a long, long time. 0:01:36.341,0:01:39.331 But only in the last 120 years, 0:01:39.428,0:01:42.818 people started, or people[br]knew more and more 0:01:42.842,0:01:47.228 how to exploit, or how to use,[br]this biological control phenomenon, 0:01:47.252,0:01:50.632 or in fact, natural control phenomenon, 0:01:50.656,0:01:52.894 for their own needs. 0:01:53.380,0:01:56.988 Because biological control phenomenon...[br]You can see it in your backyard. 0:01:57.012,0:01:59.968 Just take a magnifying glass.[br]You see what I have here? 0:01:59.992,0:02:04.006 That's a magnifier, times 10. 0:02:04.030,0:02:07.028 You just open it, twist leaves, 0:02:07.052,0:02:10.476 and you see a whole new world[br]of minute insects, 0:02:10.500,0:02:15.476 or little spiders of one millimeter,[br]one-and-a-half, two millimeters long, 0:02:15.500,0:02:18.500 and you can distinguish[br]between the good ones and the bad ones. 0:02:18.524,0:02:23.064 So this phenomenon of natural control[br]exists literally everywhere. 0:02:23.088,0:02:25.142 Here, in front of this building, I'm sure. 0:02:25.166,0:02:26.688 Just have a look at the plants. 0:02:27.105,0:02:30.766 So it's everywhere,[br]and we need to know how to exploit it. 0:02:31.869,0:02:33.846 Well, let's go hand by hand 0:02:33.870,0:02:37.076 and browse through just a few examples. 0:02:37.100,0:02:38.615 What is a pest? 0:02:38.639,0:02:41.949 What damage does it actually[br]inflict on the plant? 0:02:41.973,0:02:44.234 And what is the natural enemy, 0:02:44.258,0:02:47.241 the biological control agent,[br]or the "good bug" 0:02:47.265,0:02:48.466 that we're talking about? 0:02:48.490,0:02:53.503 In general, I'm going to talk[br]about insects and spiders, 0:02:53.527,0:02:55.750 or mites, let us call them. 0:02:55.774,0:02:58.543 Insects, those six-legged organisms 0:02:58.567,0:03:02.645 and spiders or mites,[br]the eight-legged organisms. 0:03:02.669,0:03:04.076 Let's have a look at that. 0:03:04.100,0:03:07.328 Here is a devastating pest, a spider mite, 0:03:07.352,0:03:10.224 because it does a lot[br]of webbing, like a spider. 0:03:10.600,0:03:12.122 You see the mother in between, 0:03:12.146,0:03:14.556 and two daughters, probably,[br]on the left and right, 0:03:14.580,0:03:16.648 and a single egg on the right-hand side. 0:03:16.672,0:03:19.160 And then you see[br]what kind of damage it can inflict. 0:03:19.184,0:03:22.125 On your right-hand side,[br]you can see a cucumber leaf, 0:03:22.150,0:03:23.591 in the middle, a cotton leaf, 0:03:23.615,0:03:26.813 and on the left, a tomato leaf[br]with these little stipplings. 0:03:26.837,0:03:29.890 They can literally turn[br]from green to white, 0:03:29.914,0:03:35.476 because of the sucking, piercing[br]mouth parts of those spiders. 0:03:36.158,0:03:39.828 But here comes nature,[br]that provides us with a good spider. 0:03:41.552,0:03:44.934 This is a predatory mite...[br]Just as small as a spider mite; 0:03:44.958,0:03:47.762 one, two millimeters long,[br]not more than that... 0:03:47.786,0:03:52.200 Running quickly, hunting,[br]chasing the spider mites. 0:03:52.224,0:03:56.092 And here, you can see this lady[br]in action on your left-hand side... 0:03:56.116,0:04:01.742 Just pierces, sucks the body fluids[br]on the left-hand side of the pest mite. 0:04:01.766,0:04:04.376 And after five minutes,[br]this is what you see: 0:04:04.400,0:04:06.719 just a typical dead corpse... 0:04:06.743,0:04:10.376 The shriveled, sucked-out,[br]dead corpse of the spider mite, 0:04:10.400,0:04:15.264 and next to it, two satiated[br]individuals, predatory mites. 0:04:15.309,0:04:18.231 By the way, a meal for them for 24 hours, 0:04:18.255,0:04:22.505 is about five of the spider mites,[br]of the bad mites, 0:04:22.529,0:04:27.414 and-or 15 to 20 eggs of the pest mites. 0:04:27.438,0:04:29.876 By the way, they are always hungry. 0:04:29.900,0:04:32.139 (Laughter) 0:04:32.163,0:04:34.470 And here is another example: aphids. 0:04:34.494,0:04:36.348 It's springtime now in Israel. 0:04:36.372,0:04:38.877 When temperatures rise sharply, 0:04:38.901,0:04:42.174 you can see those bad ones,[br]those aphids, all over the plants... 0:04:42.198,0:04:44.876 In your hibiscus, in your lantana, 0:04:44.900,0:04:48.876 in the young, fresh foliage[br]of the so-called spring flush. 0:04:48.900,0:04:52.876 By the way, with aphids you have[br]only females, like Amazons. 0:04:52.900,0:04:56.325 Females giving rise to females,[br]giving rise to other females. 0:04:56.349,0:04:57.578 No males at all. 0:04:57.602,0:05:00.038 Parthenogenesis, as it's so called. 0:05:00.062,0:05:02.177 And they're very happy[br]with that, apparently. 0:05:02.201,0:05:03.226 (Laughter) 0:05:03.250,0:05:04.876 Here we can see the damage. 0:05:04.900,0:05:11.660 Those aphids secrete a sticky,[br]sugary liquid called honeydew, 0:05:12.084,0:05:16.502 and this just clogs[br]the upper parts of the plant. 0:05:16.527,0:05:20.240 Here you see a typical cucumber leaf[br]that turned from green to black 0:05:20.264,0:05:24.983 because of a black fungus, sooty mold,[br]which is covering it. 0:05:25.207,0:05:30.535 And here comes the salvation,[br]through this parasitic wasp. 0:05:30.559,0:05:32.661 Here we are not talking about a predator. 0:05:32.685,0:05:35.149 Here we are talking a parasite... 0:05:35.173,0:05:37.046 Not a two-legged parasite, 0:05:37.070,0:05:40.079 but an eight-legged parasite, of course. 0:05:40.103,0:05:41.877 This is a parasitic wasp, 0:05:41.901,0:05:47.656 again, two millimeters long, slender,[br]a very quick and sharp flier. 0:05:47.680,0:05:51.653 And here you can see[br]this parasite in action, 0:05:51.988,0:05:54.655 like in an acrobatic maneuver. 0:05:54.679,0:05:56.376 She stands vis-à-vis 0:05:56.400,0:05:58.727 in front of the victim[br]at the right-hand side, 0:05:58.751,0:06:03.925 bending its abdomen[br]and inserting a single egg 0:06:03.949,0:06:05.614 into the body fluids of the aphid. 0:06:05.638,0:06:07.795 By the way, the aphid tries to escape. 0:06:07.819,0:06:12.078 She kicks and bites[br]and secretes different liquids, 0:06:12.102,0:06:14.152 but nothing will happen, in fact... 0:06:14.176,0:06:17.586 Only the egg of the parasitoid[br]will be inserted 0:06:17.610,0:06:19.748 into the body fluids of the aphid. 0:06:19.772,0:06:22.708 And after a few days,[br]depending upon temperature, 0:06:22.732,0:06:24.149 the egg will hatch 0:06:24.173,0:06:29.144 and the larva of this parasite[br]will eat the aphid from the inside. 0:06:29.168,0:06:30.219 (Laughter) 0:06:30.243,0:06:32.487 This is all natural. This is all natural. 0:06:32.511,0:06:34.510 This is not fiction, nothing at all. 0:06:34.534,0:06:37.485 Again... in your backyard.[br]In your backyard. 0:06:37.509,0:06:39.014 (Laughter) 0:06:39.038,0:06:40.503 (Applause) 0:06:40.527,0:06:45.894 But this is the end result: mummies. 0:06:45.994,0:06:52.410 This is the visual result[br]of a dead aphid encompassing inside, 0:06:53.300,0:06:58.386 a developing parasitoid that,[br]after a few minutes, you see halfway out. 0:06:58.519,0:07:00.725 The birth is almost complete. 0:07:00.749,0:07:03.923 You can see, by the way,[br]in different movies, etc., 0:07:03.947,0:07:05.576 it takes just a few minutes. 0:07:05.600,0:07:09.102 And if this is a female,[br]she'll immediately mate with a male 0:07:09.126,0:07:11.962 and off she goes,[br]because time is very short. 0:07:11.986,0:07:14.576 This female can live[br]only three to four days, 0:07:14.600,0:07:18.462 and she needs to give rise[br]to around 400 eggs. 0:07:18.486,0:07:21.888 That means she has 400 bad aphids 0:07:21.912,0:07:24.893 to put her eggs into their body fluids. 0:07:25.504,0:07:27.480 This is, of course, not the end of it. 0:07:27.504,0:07:29.886 There is a whole wealth[br]of other natural enemies 0:07:29.910,0:07:31.576 and this is just the last example. 0:07:31.600,0:07:34.093 Again, we'll start first with the pest: 0:07:34.117,0:07:35.576 the thrips. 0:07:35.600,0:07:37.903 By the way, all these weird names... 0:07:37.927,0:07:41.426 I didn't bother you with the Latin[br]names of these creatures, 0:07:41.450,0:07:42.690 just the popular names. 0:07:42.714,0:07:46.826 But this is a nice,[br]slender, very bad pest. 0:07:46.850,0:07:49.198 If you can see this: sweet peppers. 0:07:49.222,0:07:52.221 This is not just an exotic,[br]ornamental sweet pepper. 0:07:52.245,0:07:54.792 This is a sweet pepper[br]which is not consumable 0:07:54.816,0:07:57.576 because it is suffering[br]from a viral disease 0:07:57.600,0:08:00.765 transmitted by those thrip adults. 0:08:01.210,0:08:04.727 And here comes the natural enemy,[br]minute pirate bug... 0:08:04.751,0:08:07.330 "minute," because it is rather small. 0:08:07.354,0:08:10.773 Here you can see the adult,[br]black, and two young ones. 0:08:10.797,0:08:12.342 And again, in action. 0:08:12.366,0:08:15.177 This adult pierces the thrips, 0:08:15.914,0:08:18.160 sucking it within just several minutes, 0:08:18.184,0:08:21.414 going to the other prey,[br]continuing all over the place. 0:08:21.438,0:08:25.733 And if we spread those minute[br]pirate bugs, the good ones, 0:08:25.757,0:08:28.653 for example, in a sweet pepper plot, 0:08:28.677,0:08:30.246 they go to the flowers. 0:08:30.270,0:08:35.354 And look... this flower is flooded[br]with predatory bugs, with the good ones, 0:08:35.378,0:08:38.576 after wiping out the bad ones, the thrips. 0:08:38.600,0:08:41.183 So this is a very positive situation. 0:08:41.207,0:08:44.508 No harm to the developing fruit.[br]No harm to the fruit set. 0:08:44.532,0:08:47.596 Everything is just fine[br]under these circumstances. 0:08:48.345,0:08:49.806 But again, the question is, 0:08:49.830,0:08:54.031 here you saw them on a one-to-one basis...[br]The pest, the natural enemy. 0:08:54.397,0:08:57.368 What we do is actually this. 0:08:58.644,0:09:02.073 In Northeast Israel,[br]in Kibbutz Sde Eliyahu, 0:09:02.097,0:09:06.466 there is a facility that mass-produces[br]those natural enemies. 0:09:06.811,0:09:13.289 In other words, what we do there[br]is amplify the natural control, 0:09:13.313,0:09:15.290 or the biological control phenomenon. 0:09:15.314,0:09:20.191 And in 30,000 square meters[br]of state-of-the-art greenhouses, 0:09:20.215,0:09:23.519 there, we are mass-producing[br]those predatory mites, 0:09:23.543,0:09:25.238 those minute pirate bugs, 0:09:25.262,0:09:28.158 those parasitic wasps, etc. 0:09:28.182,0:09:29.509 Many different parts. 0:09:29.533,0:09:31.789 By the way, they have[br]a very nice landscape... 0:09:31.813,0:09:34.189 You see the Jordanian Mountains[br]on the one hand, 0:09:34.213,0:09:36.190 and the Jordan Valley on the other hand, 0:09:36.214,0:09:40.267 and a good, mild winter[br]and a nice, hot summer, 0:09:40.291,0:09:44.286 which is an excellent condition[br]to mass-produce those creatures. 0:09:44.310,0:09:48.550 And by the way, mass-production...[br]It is not genetic manipulation. 0:09:48.574,0:09:52.621 There are no GMOs... genetically[br]modified organisms... whatsoever. 0:09:52.645,0:09:54.376 We take them from nature, 0:09:54.400,0:09:58.697 and the only thing that we do[br]is give them the optimal conditions, 0:09:58.721,0:10:01.376 under the greenhouses[br]or in the climate rooms, 0:10:01.400,0:10:04.817 in order to proliferate,[br]multiply and reproduce. 0:10:05.467,0:10:07.158 And that's what we get. 0:10:07.182,0:10:09.039 You see under a microscope. 0:10:09.063,0:10:13.400 You see in the upper left corner?[br]You see a single predatory mite. 0:10:13.431,0:10:17.125 And this is the whole bunch[br]of predatory mites. 0:10:17.150,0:10:19.470 You see this ampul. You see this one. 0:10:19.694,0:10:22.870 I have one gram of those predatory mites. 0:10:23.191,0:10:26.739 One gram is 80,000 individuals. 0:10:27.303,0:10:32.889 80,000 individuals are good enough[br]to control one acre, 0:10:32.913,0:10:34.751 4,000 square meters, 0:10:34.775,0:10:36.628 of a strawberry plot 0:10:36.652,0:10:39.581 against spider mites for the whole season 0:10:39.605,0:10:41.018 of almost one year. 0:10:41.782,0:10:45.330 And we can produce[br]from this, believe you me, 0:10:45.354,0:10:49.756 several dozens of kilograms[br]on an annual basis. 0:10:49.780,0:10:53.988 So this is what I call[br]amplification of the phenomenon. 0:10:54.012,0:10:57.811 And no, we do not disrupt the balance. 0:10:57.835,0:10:59.076 On the contrary, 0:10:59.100,0:11:01.983 because we bring it to every cultural plot 0:11:02.007,0:11:04.760 where the balance was already disrupted 0:11:04.784,0:11:06.076 by the chemicals. 0:11:06.100,0:11:07.977 Here we come with those natural enemies 0:11:08.001,0:11:10.908 in order to reverse[br]a little bit of the wheel 0:11:10.932,0:11:14.914 and to bring more natural balance[br]to the agricultural plot 0:11:14.938,0:11:16.779 by reducing those chemicals. 0:11:16.803,0:11:18.358 That's the whole idea. 0:11:18.882,0:11:20.320 And what is the impact? 0:11:20.944,0:11:24.176 In this table, you can[br]actually see what is an impact 0:11:24.200,0:11:27.928 of a successful biological[br]control by good bugs. 0:11:28.548,0:11:34.917 For example, in Israel, where we employ[br]more than 1,000 hectares... 0:11:34.941,0:11:37.616 10,000 dunams in Israeli terms... 0:11:37.640,0:11:40.265 Of biological pests[br]controlling sweet pepper 0:11:40.289,0:11:41.813 under protection, 0:11:41.837,0:11:45.492 75 percent of the pesticides[br]were actually reduced. 0:11:45.516,0:11:48.001 And Israeli strawberries, even more... 0:11:48.025,0:11:49.799 80 percent of the pesticides, 0:11:49.823,0:11:54.391 especially those aimed[br]against pest mites in strawberries. 0:11:54.746,0:11:56.622 So the impact is very strong. 0:11:57.884,0:12:00.032 And there goes the question, 0:12:00.056,0:12:03.033 especially if you ask[br]growers, agriculturists: 0:12:03.057,0:12:04.750 Why biological control? 0:12:04.774,0:12:06.552 Why good bugs? 0:12:06.576,0:12:10.120 By the way, the number of answers you get 0:12:10.166,0:12:12.297 equals the number of people you ask. 0:12:13.754,0:12:18.312 But if we go, for example,[br]to this place, Southeast Israel, 0:12:18.336,0:12:21.812 the Arava area[br]above the Great Rift Valley, 0:12:21.836,0:12:26.881 where the pearl of Israeli[br]agriculture is located, 0:12:26.905,0:12:30.498 especially under greenhouse conditions,[br]or under screenhouse conditions... 0:12:30.522,0:12:33.311 If you drive all the way[br]to Eilat, you see this 0:12:33.335,0:12:35.248 just in the middle of the desert. 0:12:35.272,0:12:36.781 And if you zoom in, 0:12:36.805,0:12:38.508 you can definitely watch this: 0:12:38.896,0:12:41.083 grandparents with their grandchildren, 0:12:41.107,0:12:43.976 distributing the natural[br]enemies, the good bugs, 0:12:44.000,0:12:46.373 instead of wearing special clothes 0:12:46.397,0:12:48.597 and gas masks and applying chemicals. 0:12:49.185,0:12:51.771 So safety, with respect[br]to the application, 0:12:51.795,0:12:55.214 is the number one answer[br]that we get from growers, 0:12:55.238,0:12:57.211 for "Why biological control?" 0:12:58.389,0:13:02.359 Number two, many growers[br]are, in fact, petrified 0:13:02.383,0:13:05.566 by the idea of resistance, 0:13:05.590,0:13:10.143 that the pests will become[br]resistant to the chemicals, 0:13:10.167,0:13:13.976 just like in our case, that bacteria[br]becomes resistant to antibiotics. 0:13:14.000,0:13:16.768 It's the same, and it can[br]happen very quickly. 0:13:17.608,0:13:21.976 Fortunately, in either biological control[br]or even natural control, 0:13:22.000,0:13:25.061 resistance is extremely rare. 0:13:25.640,0:13:27.189 It hardly happens. 0:13:27.213,0:13:30.565 Because this is evolution,[br]this is the natural ratio, 0:13:30.589,0:13:34.443 unlike resistance, which happens[br]in the case of chemicals. 0:13:34.467,0:13:37.443 And thirdly, public demand. 0:13:39.036,0:13:42.649 The more the public demands[br]the reduction of chemicals, 0:13:42.763,0:13:46.608 the more growers become aware of the fact 0:13:46.633,0:13:49.375 that they should, wherever they can[br]and wherever possible, 0:13:49.399,0:13:53.330 replace the chemical control[br]with biological control. 0:13:53.434,0:13:55.496 Even here, there is another grower, 0:13:55.520,0:13:59.247 you see, very interested in the bugs,[br]the bad ones and the good ones, 0:13:59.271,0:14:01.865 wearing this magnifier[br]already on her head, 0:14:01.890,0:14:04.299 just walking safely in her crop. 0:14:05.467,0:14:08.727 Finally, I want to get to my vision, 0:14:08.751,0:14:10.703 or, in fact, to my dream. 0:14:11.211,0:14:13.234 Because, you see, this is the reality. 0:14:13.258,0:14:14.734 Have a look at the gap. 0:14:14.758,0:14:16.876 If we take the overall turnover 0:14:16.900,0:14:19.345 of the biocontrol industry worldwide, 0:14:19.369,0:14:21.243 it's 250 million dollars. 0:14:22.362,0:14:25.456 And look at the overall pesticide industry 0:14:25.480,0:14:27.334 in all the crops throughout the world. 0:14:27.677,0:14:30.548 I think it's times 100[br]or something like that. 0:14:30.572,0:14:32.278 Twenty-five billion. 0:14:32.302,0:14:34.917 So there is a huge gap to bridge. 0:14:35.900,0:14:37.564 So actually, how can we do it? 0:14:37.588,0:14:42.468 How can we bridge, or let's say,[br]narrow, this gap over the years? 0:14:42.492,0:14:46.240 First of all, we need to find more robust, 0:14:46.264,0:14:48.876 good and reliable biological solutions, 0:14:48.900,0:14:53.523 more good bugs that we can[br]either mass-produce 0:14:53.547,0:14:56.051 or actually conserve in the field. 0:14:56.613,0:15:01.199 Secondly, to create even more intensive[br]and strict public demand 0:15:01.223,0:15:04.475 for the reduction of chemicals[br]in agricultural fresh produce. 0:15:05.316,0:15:09.074 And thirdly, also to increase[br]awareness by the growers 0:15:09.098,0:15:11.249 to the potential of this industry. 0:15:11.900,0:15:14.399 And this gap really narrows. 0:15:14.423,0:15:17.038 Step by step, it does narrow. 0:15:18.611,0:15:20.865 You know, I started with a personal note. 0:15:20.905,0:15:23.132 I think I will end with a personal note. 0:15:23.958,0:15:25.358 I'm a marathon runner 0:15:25.403,0:15:28.418 and this week, on Thursday, 0:15:28.490,0:15:30.521 I'm with a lovely group of people 0:15:32.690,0:15:36.237 and we organize[br]a long distance relay race. 0:15:36.484,0:15:37.872 210 kilometres. 0:15:38.095,0:15:41.920 From the Lebanese border,[br]all the way to Jezreel Valley. 0:15:42.522,0:15:44.077 Groups of people will run. 0:15:44.117,0:15:47.593 Relay - 8 people, 6 people, 4, 2,[br]and even one. 0:15:48.522,0:15:49.616 All this distance. 0:15:49.641,0:15:51.774 And I see a lot of similarities. 0:15:51.831,0:15:53.498 between this type of race 0:15:53.641,0:15:56.402 and the thing that I do[br]with biological control. 0:15:56.466,0:15:59.672 Because, first of all,[br]you run this race in nature. 0:15:59.950,0:16:01.601 What I do in biological control - 0:16:01.625,0:16:04.355 in fact many times I go[br]out there also in nature 0:16:04.419,0:16:06.243 to look for my good bugs. 0:16:06.831,0:16:09.565 Secondly, this relay race is a team work. 0:16:10.069,0:16:12.156 And also in the case[br]of biological control, 0:16:12.204,0:16:13.593 it's also a team work. 0:16:13.618,0:16:16.211 Groups of people studying, researching, 0:16:16.292,0:16:20.243 implementing, collaboration with growers,[br]with the public - it's team work. 0:16:20.823,0:16:23.815 And thirdly, it's a long and winding road. 0:16:24.403,0:16:25.803 Even in the marathon. 0:16:25.879,0:16:28.958 You stumble, fall, rise and continue. 0:16:29.458,0:16:32.553 You know how many times[br]we stumble amd fall 0:16:32.617,0:16:34.450 in the case of biological control? 0:16:34.553,0:16:36.553 But we actually never give up. 0:16:37.557,0:16:39.762 So I think my last slide is: 0:16:39.786,0:16:42.051 All we are saying...[br]We can actually sing it... 0:16:42.775,0:16:44.569 Give nature a chance. 0:16:44.593,0:16:47.759 I'm saying it on behalf[br]of all the biocontrol practitioners 0:16:47.783,0:16:49.097 and implementers, 0:16:49.121,0:16:51.342 in Israel and abroad, 0:16:51.366,0:16:53.398 really give nature a chance. 0:16:53.922,0:16:55.081 Thank you. 0:16:55.105,0:16:57.176 (Applause)
