The release of the parasitic wasp Anagyrus Lopezi, at a ceremony organised and hosted by the Thai Department of Agriculture in the country's northeastern Khon Kaen province.

Large-scale deployment of this[1] parasitoid was done in Africa [2] and was successfully achieved in Thailand and several other Southeast Asian countries in 2010.[3][4]

In 2010, huge number (lakhs) of wasp were airdropped in Thailand to control mealy bug and the results were amazing.

In 1980 also these wasp were used to control mealy bug in cassava fields of west Africa and reduces pest population by 80–90%.
