The pests, pathogens and weeds infesting field vegetables are becoming increasingly difficult to manage due to the reducing availability of conventional pesticides, particularly for minor crops such as vegetables, and the very high quality standards set by retailers and consumers. For these and other reasons associated with pesticide use there is considerable interest in Europe and elsewhere in integrated approaches that minimise the use of pesticides without compromising marketable yield.
The aim of this meeting, hosted jointly by the IOBC Working Group ‘Integrated Protection of Field Vegetables’ and the Association of Applied Biologists, is to provide crop protection specialists/practitioners with the opportunity to explore new approaches to crop protection, present the results of their recent research, and discuss ongoing research and issues that are of mutual interest and whose resolution may benefit from a multi-disciplinary approach.
