Biocontrol; biological control
Plant nutrition and integrated protection are based on the use of living organisms and natural or mineral substances that respect the environment. We distinguish between :
biofertilizers for crop nutrition (micro-organisms facilitating nitrogen fixation, phosphate and potassium solubilization);
