The use of beneficial organisms such as insects, mites and nematodes for pest control in many crops have been extensively used, all over the world, for more than 3 decades.
The traditional way of controlling pests included exclusively the use of chemical pesticides, however the extensive use of them has led to the increasing problem of pesticide resistance plus the removal of many active substances has reduced the effectiveness of plant protection programs. For all these reasons in combination with the consumers desire for having agricultural products free of residues, many producers, started seeking for alternative measures which were compatible with integrated approach methods. This is in line with the demands for reduced chemical residue levels in food and efforts for increasing quality.
Anthesis in cooperation with leading companies in biocontrol (Bioline Agrosciences, E-Nema) develops programs of complete Integrated Crop Management (ICM) programs for a wide variety of crops to provide a sustainable approach in crop protection. Our aim is to extend the use of beneficials in every kind of crop with respect to biodiversity and farmer’s profit.
