o:390 Microbiological and homeopathic preparations in organic food production en Agriculture, as the most important strategic industry, is tasked with providing sufficient quantities of quality and safe food. Intensive and often excessive, uncontrolled and unskilled use of the means for protection and nutrition of plants, as well as means for the prevention or treatment of animals, is carried out to increase yields in the conventional production. This approach in food production has contributed to an increasingly common endangerment of the health of plants, animals and humans, as well as significant environmental endangerment. In response to this quantitative but not qualitative approach in food production, organic agriculture has developed. Application of microbial fertilizers, i.e. clean and multiplied cells of the most physiologically active strains of microorganisms with desirable properties in relation to plant, soil, as well as the environment, it provides numerous benefits in agriculture: it reduces overall production costs, eliminates the use of expensive mineral fertilizers and pesticides, increases the use of nutrients in the soil, contributes to better growth and increased plant yield, eliminates potential soil and groundwater pollution, increases biological soil activity, improves the production of safety food. Homeopathy is a holistic approach in the treatment of different pathological conditions of humans, domestic animals, but also with the potential for application in wartime production. It is based on the "principle of the like", i.e. the capacity that the substance that is the cause of a particular pathological condition, at the same time, has the potential to cure the condition, if applied in minimal doses. The application of homeopathic products in the prevention and treatment of animal diseases has great advantages because these products are not toxic, reduce and eliminate the use of antibiotics, hormones and other medicines that leave residues in animal Modern Trends in Agricultural Production Rural Development and Environmental Protection products and animal waste. On the other hand, the application of homeopathy in wartime production is directed in two directions. The first direction refers to the application of homeopathic preparations in healthy plants to increase their vegetative properties and yields (plant growth, increase in germination, flowering, increase in yield), as well as to reduce the negative impact of abiotic stress (high temperature, sunlight, untreated pH soils, salinity). The second direction refers to their application to control certain phytopathology, without the usual application of agrochemistry. Therefore, the application of microbial and homeopathic preparations seeks to "repair" at least one part of what has been "spoiled" by the aggressive action of man in nature, because these principles combine the best models from nature, with a high respect for environmental principles, preservation of natural resources, and with an effort to put the health of plants, animals and humans first. food safety, agrochemicals, organic production, microbial fertilizers, homeopathic preparation 2022-06-02T10:45:16.248Z 44 yes 46 Slavica Vesković-Moračanin Institute of meat Hygiene and technology 0000-0001-8706-2391 Dragutin Đukić University of Kragujevac, Faculty of Agronomy, Čačak person Zoran Ostojić University Union Nikola Tesla person Milinko Šaponjić Departments of Economy and Local Economic Development of Nova Varos person application/pdf 373569 https://unilib.phaidrabg.rs/o:390 no yes 1 70 92000004 71A01 Modern trends in agricultural production rural development and Environmental Protection Proceedings The Balkans Scientific Center of the Russian Academy of Natural Science 2021
