Mr. Nelson Laville, Plant Pathologist at Phyto-Sol Plus Inc. Dominica, presents some simple, practical, and cost-effective natural approaches to crop protection in agriculture production. Mr. Laville delves into plant health and crop protection, common pests encountered on farms in the Caribbean, understanding of plant and pest interaction, key factors that influence plan health, integrated crop management as a whole farm approach, and approaches to natural crop protection including nutrition, planting and harvesting time, use of resistant crop varieties, habitats, and crop diversity, recipes for home-made remedies and botanicals for treating pest diseases in crops.
Mr. Damian Adjodha, Agroecosystems Director at New Flower Regenerative Garden St. Lucia, presents on regenerative agroecological soil conservation where he delves into learning soil conservation from the forest and implementing it on the farm, orchestrating ecological niches by observing guiding elements in a natural system that works in synergy together, the use of vetiver grass, stones, cover crops and green manure in agroecology and soil conservation. Mr. Adjodha also shares his experience and methods of regenerative soil management.
