Research in the various crop protection disciplines is carried out at the Central Norwegian Plant Protection Institute near Oslo: it includes studies on pesticide efficacy, problems of uptake, breakdown and residues. This agency is further in charge of the extension of practical knowledge and has a supervising capacity for the Plant Inspection Service. Some of the various problems which are of major concern for Norway are reviewed and ways for a proper integration of chemical and alternative methods studied.
