Title: Biological controls of pests in the mushroom cultivation. Alternative mosquitoes control methods in the mushroom cultivation

Associates: ASOCHAMP-CTICH (Coordinator), Herchamp S.A.T. and Champirioja S.A.T.

Call: Rural Development Program. Operative Groups

Schedule: 2018 – 2020

Abstract: This project aims to provide mushroom growers with mechanisms for biological and effective control against pests, commercially viable and that could be registered under the regulations of the R.D. 951/2014 of November 14th. It is estimated that these pests can lead to a decrease in production of up to 30% (direct and indirect effect as a vector for the dispersal of diseases), which shows the relevance that obtaining this type of mechanisms can have for this sector.

Results: Ongoing project
