Agrobiotechnological protection of grapes from diseases using microbiological preparations

The article highlights the aspects of the use of microbiological preparations for the protection of vineyards from the most common disease - mildew. The results of the use of microbiological preparation "Mikosan B" for protection against mildew on private vineyards in the Transcarpathian region are shown. According to the intensity of pesticide use, grapes take one of the first places. During the growing season, 10-15 sprayings are carried out on the vineyards. With this existing technology of vineyard cultivation, there is a negative impact on both grape production and the overall production. In the world, there is a trend of gradually reducing the use of toxic pesticides and replacing them with environmentally friendly drugs. In European countries with the concept of ecologically sustainable agriculture, the gradual removal from the market of more than 60% of highly toxic pesticides is foreseen. Recently, there has been an increased interest in microbiological preparations, which activates an intensive search, study of biological properties and selection of promising microorganisms for biologization and greening of plant protection. Thus, the replacement of chemical meliorants, pesticides, agrochemicals with biological preparations created on the basis of microorganisms and their metabolites began to be implemented in the practice of plant protection.
