Abstract/Contents: | "The use of plant protection products might cause adverse effects on populations of non-target arthropods within the field but also in off-crop habitats via spray drift. Measures of risk mitigation are therefore deemed necessary in order to preserve species susceptible to local extinction and so maintain species diversity. the paper describes the background of the current view of the Federal Biological Research Centre (BBA) of how to reduce the risk of pesticide use, especially for populations living in off-crop habitats." |
