Impact des successions culturales (y compris intercultures) sur l'utilisation de produits phytosanitaires

Abstract

Impact of crop sequences (including intercropping) on the use of pesticides. Crop sequences and the introduction of catch crops influence the development of agricultural pests (weeds, pests and diseases). This paper gives an overview of the problems that may arise for farmers in practice. Adaptation of crop interventions is often based on the use of plant protection products in the following crop, and these changes serve to solve problems that have been previously generated. Nevertheless, the poorly reasoned introduction of a catch crop can cause unwanted effects in terms of pest management and in relation to the protection of water resources.
