Abstract

In the NL-DE-InterregIV project Gezonde Kas (Healthy Greenhouse; 2011‒2014) a plant protection system is developed taking into account building blocks consisting of equipment for DNA- and sensor- techniques and automated image processing, software tools, biological control strategies and precision spraying techniques. An important part in the Healthy Greenhouse system is monitoring on both macro and micro levels. Thanks to the early detection, application of biological agents or other alternative, environmental friendly measures become possible for the effective control of pests or diseases. If plant protection products (PPPs) then need to be applied, a reduction in the use of pesticide(s)
is ensured by optimal precision spraying techniques. A spraying system was developed consisting of sensors, a precision sprayer and software that adapts spray volume and dose applied to the crop canopy. Spray dose is adapted to the crop canopy structure and spray distribution is optimised for maximum efficacy and minimal environmental impact and operator exposure. Results are presented for spray deposition on crop canopy, greenhouse ground surface, greenhouse cover, spray volume and reduction of pesticide use.
