Abstract
This summary presents the real possibilities for the use of agrometeorology in achieving IPM in horticultural crops and vineyards, and also the problems. Some examples of the practical application of forecasting models for fungal and insect pests are used to document the usefulness of this recently improved approach to modern phytotherapy, which aims to increase the effectiveness of treatments while simultaneously reducing their number. In this way one can obtain a reduced impact of chemical pollution on man and the environment. However, the practical requirements of IPM programmes must be emphasized and these set the standard for the type, quantity and quality of the meteorological data input. The contribution of biotic factors is compared with that of abiotic ones. Finally, the present needs of agrometorology in IPM are focused, with an outline of its future perspectives.
