As the world population increases, the need for food production and the search for a better quality of life grows at the same rate. To support this statement, a healthy diet must be considered, combined with a fair price throughout the entire chain, from production to the final consumer. The objective of this research was to consider whether the consortium of coffee growing in the cerrado (Coffeaarabica L), produced conventionally and another coffee crop, is following the patterns of biological pest control through the use of lacewings (Chrysoperlaexterna), can be economically profitable for the producer, with the cultivation of the biquinho Capsicumsp. pepper between the rows of the coffee plant. The experiment was conducted on two properties, both located in Estrela do Sul - MG. For the production of peppers, a delimited area on the properties was used, between the lines of the Mundo Novo coffee variety. Using the Tukey Test at 5%, the productivity of biquinho pepper was analyzed in conventional ways and the difference in production with the use of biological practices. The use of lacewings in coffee cultivation has a positive influence on pest control of biquinho pepper. planted in a consortium in coffee, since the identification and quantity of pests in pepper was lower in this system than in conventional cultivation.
