EUFRUIT WP3 Scanning report Y1 "Reduction in pesticides residues - pomefruits"

Every second year, Agroscope, the Swiss centre for agricultural research, publishes recommendations for plant protection in commercial fruit production. Yearly, this booklet is supplemented by an updated list of plant protection products. These documents contain information about damage tresholds and effect of chemicals on beneficials and are widely used in practice and education. In addition, Agroscope and regional advisory services distribute up-to-date recommendations for plant protection by e-Mail, fax and mailing.
Agroscope provides several webpages with disease and pest modelling and monitoring information. Monitoring is mainly done by research farms and advisory services but rarely by producers.
