New plant protection products
A number of plant protection products and plant tonics are approved for use in organic plant production.
The requirements in terms of effectiveness as well as ecotoxicology and human toxicology are increasing. The currently still approved copper products have a special status, as they will be banned in the foreseeable future. Therefore the finding of alternatives to copper-based fungicides is of the highest priority.
- Evaluation of fungicides and resistance inductors compatible with organic production.
- Making plant protectants available which are in conformity with the organic regulations and which provide clear advantages in terms of their environmental behaviour, the protection of users, low residue levels and yield security.
