Diversification of production systems and the phytopathogen population

The present project brings a small approach on the relations between diversified production systems and the population of phytopathogens (causing damage and natural enemies) considering their positive points. It was evident during the work that these relationships favor the conservation of genetic biodiversity; the independence and lower expenditure on synthetic agrochemicals; the improvement in plant development; the reduction of phytosanitary problems; and the greater productivity and sustainability of the entire production system.
