Title: Diapositive 1


1
IPM in arable crop rotations Including examples
from ENDURE RA2.6
MODULE C10
2
Context
Country Site Soil Climate Regional land-use context
Denmark Main pig-producing farms in Denmark Both clay and sand Maritime climate Predominantly husbandry
UK Main predominantly arable area of England Clay and clay-loam Maritime climate Predominantly arable
3
Current rotations
Country Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4
UK Winter wheat Winter wheat/winter barley Winter oilseed rape
DK Winter barley Winter oilseed rape Winter wheat Winter wheat
These current systems do not necessarily reflect
the systems of all farms in each country, but are
important examples.
  •  Current crop protection strategy
  • pesticides and cultural control (e.g.
    cultivations, sowing date, crop rotation)
  • Main pest risks
  • Weeds Grasses especially black grass
    (resistance in the UK, observed in DK), bromes
    (all crops) (in the UK)
  • Fungal diseases especially Septoria, yellow
    rust (winter wheat), Phoma, light leaf spot
    (In the UK), Sclerotinia (winter oilseed
    rape).
  • Invertebrate pests aphids / virus (winter
    wheat/oilseed rape) flea beetle and pollen
    beetle (resistance) (oilseed rape) slugs
  • Pigeons in the UK (oilseed rape)
  • Expected yield national average or above

4
Main considerations for alternative rotations
  • Grass weed management (in UK black grass
    containment)
  • disease control in WOSR - more years between
    crops
  • pesticide targeting and stewardship
  • conservation biological control
  • spreading the workload
  • - maintaining yield! (In DK especially for
    fodder, as it is expensive to buy in extra)

System tools to reduce pesticide use
  • Pesticide targeting and resistance management
  • ensure effective use of pesticides strictly
    according to need, using economic thresholds and
    decision support systems.
  • Crop sequence
  • Introduction of spring crops and greater
    taxonomic variety of cropping for pest management
    particularly containment of grass weeds (in UK
    especially black grass).
  • Lengthening the rotation more years between OSR
    crops to help disease control
  • Tillage
  • Minimise tillage and chop straw wherever possible
    to conserve natural enemies and energy
  • Consider ploughing for grass weed management
    before a second cereal
  • Before spring crops plough if necessary in spring
    (in autumn on heavy land) to create seedbed and
    for weed control.
  • Conservation biological control

IPM means that all plant protection measures have
to be used wisely, otherwise problems like
resistance may develop rapidly
7
Other tools for different pest groups
  • Weed management
  • Use higher seed rates and cultivars with strong
    competitiveness where weeds are problematic
  • Spot mapping and targeting of weeds
  • Disease management
  • Use of resistant cultivars
  • Invertebrate pest management
  • Conservation biological control
  • E.g. Beetle banks, wild flower margins, hedges,
    etc.
  • Use of resistant cultivars
  • Plough for slug control

Maize Based Cropping Systems in Central and
Eastern Europe
  • Maize Based Cropping System The Case in Hungary
  • Driving forces
  • market demand, highly profitable, soil
    conditions, farm practices
  • Agri-Environmental Measures (Integrated
    Production)
  • since 2004, but was remold in 2009
  • continuous maize maximum in 3 consecutive years
    (cross compliance)
  • BUT if WCR larval damage occurs, maize field
    should be rotated
  • share of winter wheat, grain maize and sunflower
    max. 60
  • share of leguminous crops should reach 10
    (whole farm, given year)
  • How to manage of WCR (western corn rootworm) in
    continuous maize
  • ration of continuous and first year maize is
    crucial

Grass weed case The crop rotation

Grass weed case Chemical weed control
  • Choose the right product for the right job!
  • Use as little as possible but as much as needed
  • Use Decision Support Systems where available,
    e.g. Crop Protection online http//pvo.planteinfo
    .dk/cp/menu/menu.asp?iddemosubjectid1language
    en
  • It is a challenge to treat fields individually.
    Where large scale farming is an important
    parameter, it may e.g. be relevant to think about
    a basic- and advanced treatment
  • Divide e.g. the fields in groups according to
    problem
  • Consider margin and patch spraying in larger scale

11
Grass weed case Prevention of resistance
  • Change between products with different modes of
    action
  • Avoid using Sulfunylurea-products more than once
    every growing season
  • Change between modes of action

This wheat field was in the spring treated with 2
ALS-inhibiting herbicides 110 g Broadway
(florasulampyroxulam) and app. 0.1 l
Iodosulfuron. Lolium perenne is still growing
almost unaffected, which leads to a suspicion of
resistance, it has however not been confirmed.
12
Grass weed case Dispersal of weed seeds
  • Through machinery
  • As the farms grow bigger, the machinery has to
    cover larger areas, and seeds are very likely to
    be spread
  • Therefore remember proper hygiene
  • This means
  • Harvest the infested fields last, whenever
    possible
  • Clean machinery when leaving an infested field
  • Keep a stable field margin with perennial herbs,
    to avoid weed infestations to spread from here

13
Grass weed case Evaluation of the effort
  • Before harvest, make a field walk to
  • Follow up on the crop protection performed
    through the season
  • Plan the strategy for the next season
  • Make/update the weed map
  • A good result starts with proper planning!
  • Weed map

Case of Western Corn Rootworm
PROCESS OF THE DECISION ON CROP ROTATION
1. MONITORING
1st year
2nd year
  • 2. DECISION
  • - risk estimation based on the results of the
    monitoring
  • considering other factors (economic,
    environmental, cultivation, etc.)
