Hi. Any idea if this white insect is beneficial or not ? Saw it sitting on my turnip leaves.
And any idea what is those other things that look like eggs ? I saw that in the ground around the turnips as well

That looks like a white ladybird - they come in all sorts of colours. They are all very beneficial in the garden, and gobble up aphids for you....:)
The last two pics appear to show seeds still in their cases - have a look around to see where they may be falling from.
