The Goals of the Solution

• The Goals of the Solution:

  The aim of the project is to develop and verify new pesticides, biopreparations and methods to improve integrated pest management in vegetable, mainly for the integrated production of vegetable. Efficacy of pesticides with new active substances and biopreparations against diseases, pests and weeds will be evaluated in laboratory and field conditions. The pesticides and biopreparations will be tested as alternatives for restricted active substances. The methods of monitoring of pests and conditions of fungicide applications will be improved. The agrotechnological arrangement will be suggested to improve the effectivity of herbicide treatment and to decrease the usage of these substances.
