Since previous evaluation in 1993 and in 1996, a distinct progress has been noticed in research and practical achievements in the field of applied entomology and zoology, phytopathology, weed sciences and in plant protection technologies. A selected example of important achievements in the above disciplines are presented. The Polish community of plant protection specialists during the period 1994-2004 has published over 5000 regular research papers, books, reviews and technical articles concerning all aspects of plant protection. Polish specialists continue in their active participation in various international research projects and programmes such as HRAC, EUCABLIGHT, PHARE, UE CRAFT, COST 819, COST 850 and many others. The number of plant protection specialists employed in agricultural universities (175 persons including 51 professors) and in research institutes (131 persons including 35 professors) changed very slightly during 1994-2003. More detailed analysis of positions and age of scientists is provided for a groups of phytopathologists employed in agricultural universities and in research institutes. The analysis prepared by the Committee provides conclusions and indicates research priorities in entomology, phytopathology, herbology and plant protection technologies for 2005-2013 in Poland.. 收起
