Presentations at the 3rd Tharandt Forest Protection Colloquium on October 25th and October 26th, 2018
More than 100 participants from all over Germany followed our invitation to the 3rd Tharandt Forest Protection Colloquium. Due to the great feedback of previous years, the colloquium was extended from one day to two days, allowing for plenty of time to address the two main topics "Current developments in bark beetle management" and "Close-to-nature regulation of pest insects". Some photos of this event are included in this news article.
