Observation equipment for diseases and pests on field crops

Technical articles

To successfully observe diseases and pests, we recommend always having with you:

• A cutter to observe the internal parts of plants and accurately estimate the growth stage of the crop in certain cases.

• A magnifying glass to precisely observe the diseases and pests encountered and establish a reliable diagnosis.

• A spade to extract roots without damaging them and perform a reliable observation.
