  • Impact of sulphur, a plant protection agent in organic apple production, on nutrient and heavy metal mobility in the soil
    Sulphur (S) is a widely used plant protection agent (mainly against apple scab) in organic apple production in temperate regions. Current attempts of reducing the use of copper (Cu) to avoid heavy metal accumulation in the soil lead to an increased application of S. In Germany, the amounts of S range from 30 to 90 […]

    Tomatoes are a popular horticultural commodity prone to quick postharvest deterioration. In the absence of cold storage and postharvest fungicides to prevent spoilage, other means to preserve the shelf life of fresh tomatoes is sought. Reducing decay and extending the shelf life of such a popular and easily accessible food crop will decrease food waste. […]
