Сад без химии

In nature, among the countless number of insects, there are many pests of gardens and berry fields. They live everywhere, their damage is varied. No less harm comes from diseases - scab, anthracnose, powdery mildew, gray rot of berries and many others. Pests and diseases are especially common in amateur gardens due to the lack of collective measures to protect plantings and the lack of knowledge among gardeners on the biology of pests and diseases and the choice of reliable means of their destruction. For control measures to be effective and beneficial, you need to know how a pest or disease lives, when it reproduces, and what damage it causes. There are a lot of them, although they all harm the garden to varying degrees, but in other years they destroy most of the harvest of fruits and berries, weaken the plants, reduce their frost resistance, and often destroy them. Although existing chemical preparations are highly effective against pests and diseases of gardens and berry fields, and are varied in their effects, unfortunately, they do not disappear without a trace, but accumulate in the soil, from the soil they enter the plant and settle in the fruits that we then eat. In addition, pesticides used for spraying fruit trees are a strong carcinogen. US scientists recently came to this conclusion. Gardens and vegetable gardens treated with pesticides cause considerable damage to our health, the health of our children, even those who have not yet been born to us. So let's work together to find ways, firstly, to overcome environmental illiteracy, and, secondly, to means of protecting plants from pests and diseases that are safe for ourselves and for nature.
