Among practitioners, on the other hand, there is still a certain amount of skepticism, ignorance and uncertainty when it comes to the advantages and disadvantages as well as flower strip management.

The concept of beneficial flower strips is tested using the example of aphids and legumes in organic cultivation, and the experiences and results gained are disseminated in science and practice (organic and integrated cultivation).
