*DIAFE’s accounts statistics 1995/96. The figures do not include set-aside or control of couch grass.
** Based on the crop-rotation group’s work on pesticide consumption from 1994. The figures do not include set-aside or control of couch grass
*** Economically optimised scenarios are dynamic model scenarios. The figures include set-aside.
****Agronomic scenarios are static scenarios with fixed crop rotations. The figures include set-aside.
***** Average figures for the whole of Denmark, excl. set-aside but incl. control of couch grass.
