In Mei 2024 het Jeanne by die Laeveld Agrochem-span aangesluit as ‘n Besigheidsbestuurder in die Wes-Kaap. Jeanne is ‘n gewaardeerde entomoloog wat ‘n magdom ervaring en passie bring om die landboubedryf beide nasionaal en internasionaal te bevorder. Haar loopbaanhoogtepunte sluit in dat sy as een van L’Oréal se top 10 vroue in wetenskap oor sub-Sahara lande bekroon is, die publikasie van artikels in verskeie internasionale joernale en die ontvangs van ‘n toekenning van ‘n internasionale maatskappy as die topverkoper in haar aangewese streek.

Oorweeg die weer en ander faktore, voor weerstand die skuld kry

Voordat insekweerstand as sondebok uitgeken word vir swak beheer, moet ander faktore soos spuittoerusting, weerstoestande en plaagidentifikasie eers uitgeskakel word. ʼn Holistiese benadering verhoog die kans op suksesvolle plaagbeheer.

If in doubt, SCOUT!

Laeveld Agrochem, alongside partners like Agri Technovation is driving hands-on scout training to boost field expertise. Through teamwork and practical sessions, scouts gain essential skills to detect pests and diseases early, supporting integrated pest management for sustainable, high-quality yields. Prevention is key, and scouting records are the foundation of successful crop protection.
