Entomology in organic vegetable production

Because of the great variety of vegetable crops, the number of pest species is very high. For many pests encountered in organic vegetable production there are no or not sufficiently effective methods for their direct control.

  • Making new insecticides and repellent substances available to producers to control the most significant pests in organic vegetable production.
  • The use of physical barriers (vertical crop protection nets) for the control of vegetable pests is to be made easier and more economic.
