Investigation of the load of plant protection products in exposed small water bodies and development of options for action for farmers and advisors to minimize entries
Project
Project code: JKI-ÖPV-08-1309
Contract period: 01.01.2014
- 31.12.2020
Purpose of research: Applied research
For the implementation of one of the objectives of the National action plan on the sustainable use of plant protection products (ppp), the load of ppp in selected exposed small water bodies in the agricultural landscape shall be investigated and ecotoxicologically evaluated. Possible deviations from the pursued 'good chemical condition' of the water bodies shall be interpreted on the basis of the management data and a GIS-based assessment of the exposition. If acceptable concentrations are exceeded or mixtures of ppp occur, investigations on the ecological condition are appropriate. The aim of the project is to develop and test options for action to minimize entries in the long term. The results enter into a model that displays these complex relationships and supports decision-making of farmers or advisory services.
