SIGNIFICANCE IN INNOVATION AND KNOWLEDGE APPLIANCE IN SYSTEM OF ORGANIC AGRICULTURE IN SERBIA
Abstract
Organic production is a specific system of food production determined by a set of very strict standards which protect natural resources and cultural identity. It requires greater effort on the side of producers in the implementation of the innovations. It also contributes to opening of new areas for scientific research, so special attention in this paper was given to application of bio-pesticides in organic production, as one of new and, in environment sense, harmless form of crop protection. The use of biological pesticides increases the size of organic production, but contributes to better quality and look of organic products, too, making them more attractive for consumers. In a way that management in organic agriculture confronts decision-making, based on ambiguity which comes primarily from natural surrounding, there was pointed out also on significance in using information technologies, in order to manage the production in more easily way. The aim of this paper is to point out to a need and importance of correlation between the science, technology and producer in our country in unique entirety, because only then the science and technology could be useful and the organic production – efficient.
