Welcome to the IOBC Working Group on
Integrated Control in Oilseed Crops
The Working Group INTEGRATED CONTROL in OILSEED CROPS (ICOC) is one of 20 Working Groups (March 2013) of the West
Palaeartic Regional Section (WPRS) of the International Organisation
for Biological and Integrated Control (IOBC).
IOBC/WPRS encourages collaboration in promoting feasible and environmentally
safe methods of pest and pathogen control.
IOBC/WPRS fosters research and practical application, organises
meetings, symposia, offers training and information, especially
of biological methods of control, but also of all methods, including
chemicals, within an integrated pest management context. Major
activities include development and standardisation of testing methods
for effects of pesticides on beneficial species, pest and disease
damage assessment, modelling in relation to pest and disease management,
and the practical implementation of biological and integrated controls
for pests and diseases of particular crops.
These 20 working groups are:
- Benefits and Risks of Exotic Biological Control Agents
- Biological and Integrated Control of Plant Pathogens
- Induced Resistance in Plants Against Insects and Diseases
- Integrated Control in Citrus Fruit Crops
- Integrated Control in Oilseed Crops (ICOC)
- Integrated Control in Protected Crops, Mediterranean Climate
- Integrated Control in Protected Crops, Temperate Climate
- Integrated Control of Plant-Feeding Mites
- Integrated Protection in Oak Forest
- Integrated Protection in Viticulture
- Integrated Protection of Field Vegetable Crops
- Integrated Protection of Fruit Crops
- Integrated Protection of Olive Crops
- Integrated Protection of Stored Products
- Landscape Management for Functional Biodiversity
- Microbial and Nematode Control of Invertebrate Pests
- Modern Biotechnology in Integrated Plant Production
- Multitrophic Interactions in Soil
- Pesticides and Beneficial Organisms
- Pheromones and Other Semio-Chemicals in Integrated Production
