Research 

The division of Plant Protection works on basic research as well as on applied sciences.

Fundamental research is focussing on interaction between pathogens or parasites in their host- and non-host-plants and further more on ecology of  pest- and beneficial organisms.

In the field of applied plant protection we address primarily the problems in crop production including viticulture, horticulture as well as herbology and irrespectiv of the different types of crop production we offer general solutions for current issues bothering the growers.
