Upcoming webinar: Advancements in ICP for profitable veg production
25 August 2021 @ 4:30 pm - 5:30 pm
Free
Integrated crop protection (ICP) takes a holistic approach to plant health.
It builds on the principles of integrated pest management (IPM) combined with site-specific soil, nutrition and irrigation management, and decision making based on relevant monitoring data and forecasting.
There are a number of important advancements and lessons from Europe implementing a mandatory ICP approach in vegetable production systems.
The need to use ICP there has driven RD&E that can be applied in the Australian context.
Join an interactive webinar from 4.30pm-5.30pm (AEST) on Wednesday 25 August to hear from leading international researchers and practitioners from Europe and Australia on:
- Building ICP into your current production system.
- Tools to manage the risk of insect pests, diseases and weeds.
- Realising the benefits of an ICP approach.
