Kompetenceområder
Basic science:-

Applied science:
The course will give fundamental understanding of application of such basic disciplines as biology, ecology and technology for environmentally sound and sustainable management of pests, diseases and weeds in horticultural crops. The student will be able to apply principles interdisciplinary to analyse, discuss and solve problems related to plant protection.

Ethics and values:
The student should be aware of and able to discuss ethical and environmental problems related to plant protection
 
Kursets målsætning
The course will follow up on species knowledge and principles from basic DSH courses aiming at management situations that are adoptable by farmers.
 
Kursusindhold
Successful plant protection management is based on a profound knowledge of the biology and ecology of the causal organisms and of the crop ecology where they act. Important problems with pests, diseases and weeds in horticulture will be addressed both traditionally and within the concept of integrated pest management (IPM) and organic farming. The students will learn how to incorporate sub-disciplines of plant pathology, entomology, nematology and weed sciences (epidemiology, etiology, population ecology, microbial pathogenicity, competition etc.) into management programs that are logical practical and adoptable by farmers.
 
Undervisningsform
Lectures, seminars, individual and group project work, journal clubs and excursions
 
Litteraturhenvisninger
