The atlas presents up to 126 fungal, bacterial and viral diseases of 12 different types of cereal and legume agricultural plants
The symptoms caused by the above-mentioned harmful organisms are given in tabular format, which simplifies the first identification of a specific disease, especially in field conditions. The Atlas also includes recommendations for complex disease control and illustrations of disease symptoms, which are accompanied by additional information and relevant explanations.
The Atlas is designed for the students and specialists of the agricultural fields and farmers.
Within the framework of the project, the Atlas was published directly for the specialists of the information-consulting services (public agro-extension service providers) of the Ministry of Environmental Protection and Agriculture of Georgia, as an auxiliary guide in the production of agro-consultancy services.
