Intensification of Pea (Pisum sativum L.) Production in Organic Farming: Effects of Biological Treatments on Plant Growth, Seed Yield, and Protein Content
In “Agronomy” – The adoption of biological control strategies plays a crucial role in ensuring the sustainability of organic agricultural practices. A field experiment was conducted in 2023 and 2024 to evaluate the impact of biological treatments using lactic acid bacteria (LAB) Lactiplantibacillus plantarum and mycoparasitic fungus (MPF) Trichoderma virens applied through seed treatment and […]
Mechanical weed control in organic orchards: Gyroscopic crumblers
In organic orchards, weed control is very important, as herbicides are not allowed. Additionally, purely superficial mowing of the undergrowth is not sufficient, especially in spring with young & low-stem trees. Solution The gyroscopic crumbler regulates the weeds mechanically by means of two horizontally rotating tools, one of which also swings out into the inter-trunk […]
