The laboratory activities aim to enable the student to acquire knowledge of how to organize the nursery spaces both in protected and outdoors environment, to acquire the autonomy in the choice of production factors and execution of sowing, cutting, adventitious rooting process, grafting and transplanting techniques of fruit plants.

Modulo di Vivaismo delle piante forestali
Train the student on the application principles of setting up and managing a forest nursery, consolidating and expanding the understanding of the operational activities in the nursery and in the plantations. Ability to apply the knowledge acquired in forestry material production programs. Develop a critical and independentsense to make appropriate choices and define future projects.


Modulo di Entomologia
To provide students with: i) concepts related to entomological monitoring systems both in field and greenhouse; ii) to carry out direct and indirect monitoring activities
Knowledge and understanding skills
The teaching aims to develop students' knowledge and understanding skills, such as:
- Knowing and verifying the salient features of the entomological world
- To know the logic of behavior in the greenhouse and open field
- To know and test sampling methodologies in orchards
Applied knowledge and understanding
The teaching will enable the application of knowledge and understanding, making it possible, for example, to
- Develop monitoring methodologies in the orchard
- Develop manual skills in entomological management at nursery and field level
Autonomy of judgement
Teaching will enable autonomy of judgement to be developed at various levels, such as
- hypothesising the main phytophagous insects of fruit plants
- propose the most appropriate monitoring strategies
Communication skills
Participating in lectures and exercises and making independent use of the material provided will facilitate the development and application of communication skills, such as
- provide a sufficient range of practical examples of the application of monitoring systems in orchards
- using appropriate and up-to-date technical agronomic vocabulary.
Ability to learn Participating in lectures and exercises and making independent use of the material provided will facilitate the consolidation of learning skills.
- stimulate an autonomous program of continuous knowledge updating.
- autonomously identify ways to acquire information from the experiential knowledge of farmers and nursery managers and the professional knowledge of agronomists
- identify and use the most useful sources of information for personal updating.
