2018-06-29

14th meeting of the IOBC-WPRS Working Group "Integrated Control in Protected Crops, Mediterranean Climate" from 04-07 September 2018 in Lisbon, Portugal.

The meeting will be held in the Instituto Nacional de Investigação Agrária e Veterinária (INIAV) which is a State Laboratory for Agriculture, Forestry and Rural Development in Oeiras.

The meeting, whose main theme is "Pest control in Mediterranean greenhouses under the pressure of climate change and invasive species", aims at giving researchers, technical staff and extension personal from the public and private sectors, as well as graduate and post-graduate students, the chance to share ideas and show their most recent studies on the main and related themes, discussing about present and future challenges in pests, pathogens and weeds management in protected crops. This will be done under the light of new technology and regulations and in the frame of ever-changing threats by noxious organisms already occurring in Mediterranean greenhouses or which could appear in the near future. Through scientific sessions, technical visits and social events, the occasion will be given to participants also to strengthen existing collaborations as well as establish new ones.
