Grasshoppers are the most common insects we find, especially in tropical climates, grasshoppers have a very large population, even grasshoppers are often considered serious pests for farmers, because with a large number of grasshoppers, it can certainly cause farmers to fail to harvest because grasshoppers can eat leaves from plants. Grasshoppers themselves also have various types, even there are large grasshoppers and also small grasshoppers, like in my post this time I will share some pictures of a grasshopper that has a small size but with a green color like the color of the leaves. I managed to find this grasshopper when I was on my plantation, a few days ago, this grasshopper was also a major problem for my father, because many chili leaves had been eaten by him, so my father is trying to eradicate a small part of this grasshopper so that the population is not too large, and the loss is not felt.
Moreover, this small grasshopper, even I myself who initially really liked grasshoppers, now I am very hostile to them, especially when I see grasshoppers in large numbers, maybe I will feel a little annoyed, but apart from all that, grasshoppers are living creatures that also need food and life side by side with humans, so we must continue to care about its ecosystem, because even though grasshoppers have characteristics that are detrimental to farmers, grasshoppers also have other benefits for nature.
