Aim:

Improve winter wheat cultivation technology in Latvia, using resources more efficiently and increasing profits and an online support system for the control of winter wheat leaf and spike diseases will be created, which would be both economically and technologically justified.

Objectives: 

Knowledge transfer will be the decision support system created as a result of the project. The results on the intensity of nitrogen fertilisers and fungicides will lead to a better cost-effectiveness of wheat cultivation, which in turn will have a positive impact on the economic outcomes and sustainable development of farms.
