Het doel van dit boek is de fruitteler kennis te verschaffen over in de aanplant voorkomende insecten en mijten, nodig om de gewasbescherming zo efficiënt mogelijk te kunnen uitvoeren. Voor iedere fruitteler is het immers van belang de levenswijze van de schadelijke insecten en mijten te kennen. Voor hen die de principes van de geïntegreerde bestrijding willen toepassen (= sparen van natuurlijke vijanden) is het bovendien noodzakelijk kennis te hebben van een aantal nuttige insecten en mijten, opdat men er waar mogelijk gebruik van kan maken. In dit boek komen daarom zowel de schadelijke insecten en mijten van fruitgewassen als hun natuurlijke vijanden aan bod, hoewel onze kennis over deze laatste categorie nog zeer onvolledig is. In het hoofdstuk, dat daarover handelt, is tevens dankbaar gebruik gemaakt van gegevens die door de Werkgemeenschap Geintegreerde Bestrijding TNO in de Proefboomgaard De Schuilenburg in Kesteren en elders in de loop der jaren zijn verzameld. Dit handboek is het resultaat van ruim 30 jaar onderzoek naar de fenologie van schadelijke en nuttige insecten en mijten in fruitgewassen, dat door A. van Frankenhuyzen gedurende zijn loopbaan bij de Plantenziektenkundige Dienst is verricht. De talloze aan dit boek ten grondslag liggende waarnemingen werden aanvankelijk vooral gedaan ten behoeve van de in het begin van zijn loopbaan fungerende landelijke radiowaarschuwingsdienst voor ziekten en plagen in land- en tuinbouw, later van de regionale telefonische waarschuwingsdiensten, alsmede van de persberichten van de Plantenziektenkundige Dienst over de bestrijding van ziekten en plagen in de fruitteelt.

Soil degradation is one of the most topical environmental threats. A number of processes causing soil degradation, specifically erosion, compaction, salinization, pollution, and loss of both organic matter and soil biodiversity, are also strictly connected to agricultural activity and its intensification. The development and adoption of sustainable agronomic practices able to preserve and enhance the physical, chemical, and biological properties of soils and improve agroecosystem functions is a challenge for both scientists and farmers. The Special Issue entitled “Sustainable Agriculture and Soil Conservation” collects 12 original contributions addressing the state of the art of sustainable agriculture and soil conservation. The papers cover a wide range of topics, including organic agriculture, soil amendment and soil organic carbon (SOC) management, the impact of SOC on soil water repellency, the effects of soil tillage on the quantity of SOC associated with several fractions of soil particles and depth, and SOC prediction, using visible and near-infrared spectra and multivariate modeling. Moreover, the effects of some soil contaminants (e.g., crude oil, tungsten, copper, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) are discussed or reviewed in light of the recent literature. The collection of the manuscripts presented in this Special Issue provides a relevant knowledge contribution for improving our understanding on sustainable agriculture and soil conservation, thus stimulating new views on this main topic.
