Pesticides remain the primary tool for plant protection, allowing for the control of the spread of pests, diseases, and nematodes both in open soil and in intensive greenhouse operations. The effectiveness of agrotechnical measures directly depends on compliance with the application regulations for products, the precision of setting up spraying equipment, and a deep understanding of the mechanisms of action of active ingredients on pathogens. For an agronomist, the competent use of pesticides is not only a guarantee of saving the harvest but also a duty to ensure the safety of the final product, especially when producing goods for baby food.
This collection gathers materials covering the full cycle of working with products: from the rules of their registration and safety requirements to practical aspects of preparing soil and greenhouse structures. Readers will find information here on methods of chemical and biological control, methods for analyzing residual quantities in the soil, as well as recommendations for combining plant protection with beekeeping processes. Special attention is paid to the integration of chemical methods with the use of biological products based on Trichoderma fungi and entomophages to form a balanced system for the protection of agrocenoses.
Plant protection For agronomists
This article examines the principles of pesticide registration and approval, as well as the stages of assessing their safety for humans, the crop, and the environment. You will learn about the process of transitioning from experimental trials to large-scale production use of chemical plant protection products
Plant protection For agronomists
Soil pesticide control is essential for effective crop rotation; however, complex sample preparation accounts for 60% of the analysis cost. The article examines sample preparation stages, the influence of soil composition, and the solubility of active ingredients to optimize laboratory research.
