Summary
State of the Art:
Many organic pesticides have reduced effectiveness due to UV degradation. New application techniques (e.g. under-leaf application) could help to solve this problem in organic vegetable production.
Definition of the problem:
All microbial biocontrol agents and pesticides of vegetal origin are UV degraded. New application technology could augment effectiveness of these products.
Project aims:
Find new application technologies for a more adapted application of organic pesticides and microbial biocontrol agents in organic vegetable production.
Methodology:
On-farm test of different new application techniques and with different pesticide agents.
