| Content | This lecture aims to provide an overview of the most important risks in crop production systems and approaches farmers can take to managing them. This includes an overview of main agricultural pests, diseases and abiotic stresses through case studies and examples. The lecture series will then highlight chemical, biological, physical, and agronomic concepts for crop management and outlines how these concepts can be brought together in the context of integrated crop protection strategies. We also discuss crop protection in the wider context of sustainability debates to identify strategies to sustainably produce sufficient food, feed, and fibre in the future. |
| Bibliography | Scripts will be provided on the ADAM platform the day before the lecture. |
