EuroWheat.org – A support to integrated disease management in wheat
Résumé
Winter wheat is the most important cereal crop in Europe and wheat diseases are commonly seen to have a major impact on yields, quality of grain and fungicide requirements. EuroWheat collates data and information on wheat disease management from several countries aiming at analysing and displaying this information in a European context. It is expected to provide significant added value on a European scale by bringing together existing information from national programmes and ensuring that these data are in a format, which can be readily understood trans-nationally. The information is targeted to support local advisers, breeders and other partners dealing with disease management in wheat. The content of the platform can support IPM (Integrated Plant Protection Management) in a broad sense. The platform is open to all users. Only features, which are still under development, are behind login.
