Silver medal for 2009! AGRO-NET with integrated proPlant pesticide database

Crop protection is a highly sensitive subject. Strict requirements, complex regulations and laborious product research inevitably place burdens on farmers. But now there’s help available for the time-consuming and wearisome task of choosing the right pesticide: AGRO-NET with its integrated pesticide database and active proposal system. Distinguished with a  silver medal in 2009!

The system is updated daily and recommends the currently approved products taking into account the culture, development, indication, location, past history, season and waiting times.

Practitioners appreciate the fact that by using the integrated pesticide database in AGRO-NET, they can save about 8% working time. And they can be 100% sure that they have chosen the right pesticide from over 1000 approved products. Farmers thus avoid the risk of public discussion and a fine of up to EUR 50,000 if they use an unapproved product.



The trick here is: an active proposal system calls up the history of the field index in AGRO-NET, picks out the relevant data from the depths of the database, chooses the suitable products on the basis of diverse criteria such as culture, stage of development and indication, and puts forward a proposal to the farmer.
Reliable advance planning pays off: facts and figures do not have to be tediously re-entered every time, just the field and indication. And of course the farmer always has the last word when selecting the pesticide to be used, despite all of the automated features.
