Harmonised taxonomy of the innovative practices and systems [D2.3]

Starting from the eight IPM principles we classify IPM practices by describing them in 4 hierarchical layers. This systematic mapping of practices leads to a harmonisation of nomenclature within the taxonomy, and beyond, will ensure a similar level of resolution in each practice layer across the different practices. The classification of practices will facilitate the usage of this taxonomy as a tool to farmers and advisors as well as linking it to policies.

An interactive version of this taxonomy of IPM practices is available on the dedicated website.

This taxonomy has been included on the European Commission's Farmer's Toolbox for Integrated Pest Managent. You can access it by selecting the filter "Agrowise" under the "Taxonomy" box.
