Biological efficacy is a key indicator in crop production, allowing for the assessment of the results of using plant protection products and agrotechnical practices. For an agronomist, understanding this criterion is critically important for minimizing harvest losses, controlling the spread of pathogens, pests, and weeds, as well as for making informed choices regarding preparations. High efficacy indicators directly influence economic performance, ensuring a reduction in chemical load on the soil and maintaining high product quality.
This collection brings together the results of long-term studies covering the main areas of field crop production and horticulture. The articles present a detailed analysis of the use of herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides on various crops: from cereals and industrial crops to berries and vegetables. You will learn about the specifics of protecting crops from grass weeds, combating invasive species, methods for controlling storage pests, and the efficacy of fungicides against diseases of ears and fruit and berry crops. The materials include protection strategies, analysis of tank mixtures, as well as methods of environmentally safe impact, which will allow specialists to optimize the plant protection system in production conditions.
