Hermann Waibel Bücher

Dieser Katalog erscheint anlässlich der Ausstellung „Hermann Waibel - Raumlichtfarben“ vom 19.3. - 30.4.2000 in der Städtischen Galerie Ravensburg.

The book explores the evolution of rice farming practices in Southeast Asia following the green revolution, highlighting the excessive reliance on pesticides for crop protection. It addresses the persistent pest outbreaks that have prompted a shift towards more sustainable methods, including supervised crop protection and integrated pest management. The economic pressures faced by farmers, such as limited cash flow and the impact of pesticide imports on foreign currency, underscore the need for strategic, need-based pesticide applications rather than routine spraying.
