Management strategies in organic systems rely on preventive measures, use of functional agro-biodiversity, release of biocontrol agents and a few approved pesticides of biological and mineral origin, as well as mating disruption or the use of fine-mesh netting to exclude pests. The methods used in organic production might also be applicable in IPM systems. This paper considers the methods used in organic Brassica vegetable and oilseed rape production, and discusses their potential and limitations in the context of their application in integrated pest and disease management strategies. date: 2016 type: Journal paper type: NonPeerReviewed format: application/pdf language: de identifier: /id/eprint/32316/1/2016_IOBCBrassicaVegetables.pdf identifier: Daniel, Claudia; Hommes, Martin and Koller, Martin (2016) Plant Protection in organic production of Brassica vegetables and oilseed rape.
