Abstract

Chitosan is an organic compound derived from the shells of sea shells, and has wide application in agricultural production. The main effect of chitosan is a biofungicidal effect on many plant diseases. In addition, chitosan has a good effect against stressful conditions during plant growth and development. Applying chitosan increases the quality of fruits and increases storage life, which is especially important for small fruits (strawberry, raspberry, blackberry, blueberry). As chitosan is a natural compound, it is licensed for use in organic agricultural production and is an important preparation for use in organic farming. At EU level it is designated as a preparation based on a basic substance, in accordance with EC standard 1107/2009.
