Factsheet Riskmaps IPM Decisions
The homepage of the IPM Decisions platform, https://www.platform.ipmdecisions.net/, contains crop damage risk. These risk maps show the infection risk of various plant pests and diseases across Europe for using a 7km by 7km grid, with weather data taken from the Deutscher Wetterdienst Open Data service. Currently the risk map for Septoria leaf blotch (Zymoseptoria tritici), the risk maps for pollen beetle (Meligethes aeneus) and the risk map for codling moth (Cydia pomonella) are available. The data is updated throughout the risk season for each pest and the user is able to scroll through the maps by date to see how the risk is changing over time. By zooming in, the user can view the local risk level. Attention: It is important to note that the information in the maps is only intended to provide a regional overview of risk based on modelled weather data and will not necessarily be an accurate prediction of risk for an individual crop. The DSS risk maps should only be used to assist (not replace) decisions by experienced crop managers as local conditions will need to be taken into account in making any crop protection decisions. The user has to login to become more in depth information about the current risk levels. As the risk maps will show the risk prediction from a number of decision support tools and the meaning of risk varies between the different DSS. There is an information icon included next to the DSS name, which will provide more details about how the DSS produces its risk prediction. In addition to the risk map, maps of additional outputs relevant to the DSS are also provided.

A Bio-inspired Multilayer Drainage System
Agricultural run-off and subsurface drainage tiles transport a significant amount of nitrogen and phosphorus leached after fertilization. alchemia-nova GmbH in collaboration with University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna developed two multi-layer vertical filter systems to address the agricultural run-off issue, which has been installed on the slope of an agricultural field in Mistelbach, Austria. While another multi-layer addressing subsurface drainage water is implemented in Gleisdorf, Austria. The goal is to develop a drainage filter system to retain water and nutrients. Both multi-layer filter systems contain biochar and other substrates with adsorption properties of nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus). The filter system can be of practical use if an excess of nutrients being washed out is of concern in the fields of the practitioner by keeping the surrounding waters clean. This approach may result in economic value by re-using the saturated biochar as fertilizer and improving the soil structure, thus increasing long-term soil fertility.

NANOCELLULOSE MEMBRANES FOR NUTRIENT RECOVERY
This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under Grant Agreement No 858735This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under Grant Agreement No 858735. FACTSHEET NANOCELLULOSE MEMBRANES FOR NUTRIENT RECOVERY Key information Functionalized nanocellulose membranes can take up nitrate and phosphate. These membranes can be put in a water treatment unit. As the membranes are biobased, degradable materials, they can after use be added to the soil, thus returning the leached nutrients back for their original purpose providing fertilizers (nutrient recycling).
Environmental monitoring within greenhouse crops using wireless sensors
Because variables such as temperature and humidity have a profound effect on the activity of crop pests, diseases and natural enemies, the ability to monitor environmental conditions within a crop has always been important for crop protection.
