Abstract
Regulations related to application of plant protection products (PPPs) to crops, especially to potato, are becoming stricter in European countries, the range of licensed pesticides (especially toxic WHO classes I and II pesticides) as well as their maximum residual levels (MRLs) in food products being reduced. That is why, in the EU and UK, the integrated pest management (IPM) approach is increasingly used making it possible to reduce infection levels in soils and plants whilst providing for a decrease in the sprays and dosages of PPPs, especially when disease burden is low. As a result, the residual levels of pesticides are reduced the final products. The use of IPM in EU is based national IPM plans (national action plans). The present paper provides information on IPM application to potato.
