Introduction of integrated plant protection on 1 January 2014 has been aimed at ensuring safety of food coming from the agricultural production process. One of the elements of providing consumers with healthy food is reasonable use of plant protection products. Right plant protection includes use of plant protection products at the optimal time, when the established threshold of economic harmfulness is reached. This purpose is served by, among other things, earlier establishment of the values of thresholds of harmfulness and decision support systems. Stand experiments on winter wheat compared use of fungicide protection according to the traditional scheme (of developmental stages), where farmers conduct spraying procedures with protection according to recommendations of decision support system. Adopting protection according to recommendations of the system enabled to reduce the prevalence of leaf and ear diseases and resulted in higher yield and thousand grain weight.
