Aim of course
Imparting of basic knowledge and connections in production of useful plants for regional supply of food and fodder plants and renewable raw materials (biomass). In the focus of interst is on one hand the network of biotops with soil, natural soil fertility, growing plant, loading of surface waters and atmosphere, on the other hand the useful plants in monoculture, the integrated palnt protection concerning agricultural pest control, competiton of weed, securing of yield as well as the quality of the harvested products. In the complex apporach (view) will be shown the optimizing growth of useful plants, the qualitive demands of processing harvest products as well as the variability by production engineering, regarding consequences for the ecosystem.
