Riassunto

After the Second World War, rapid technological advancements played a pivotal role in transforming agriculture to address the pressing food needs of a growing global population. The Green Revolution, a major breakthrough during this period, was characterized by the introduction of high-yielding crop varieties, improved plant protection strategies, and the widespread use of synthetic fertilizers. These innovations led to significant increases in agricultural productivity. However, in the present day, the focus has shifted toward enhancing productivity while maintaining environmental sustainability. Modern agriculture faces new challenges, including climate change and geopolitical tensions that threaten global food security. Crop protection has become a crucial aspect of this effort, employing a range of tools, products, and strategies to shield crops from threats such as weeds, pests, viruses, and diseases. These adversities, if not controlled, can have severe consequences, leading to substantial reductions in harvests or even complete crop failures.
