Answer:

True.

Step-by-step explanation:

Some insects can present themselves as pests that feed on crops, and can completely end agricultural production and end the productive process of crops.

These insects can feed on fruits, roots, leaves and even cause diseases in plants. When they feed on the fruits, they prevent their commercialization, when they feed on the roots it does not allow the plant to remain upright, when they feed on the leaves they prevent photosynthesis, causing serious problems in all plant development.

Not all insects are crop pests, some insects are beneficial and help plants to grow, such as pollinating insects, for example.
