Institute for Ecological Chemistry, Plant Analysis and Stored Products Protection (JKI - ÖPV)
Within the scope of consumer protection, the Institute for Ecological Chemistry, Plant Analysis and Stored Product Protection carries out research concerning the effects of plant protection measures on the agricultural ecosystem, on the improved traceability of quality parameters relevant for plant breeding and on improved methods of stored product protection. In co-operation with commercial plant breeders, producers, industry and consumer interest groups working programs include studies on the selection of high-yielding plants.
