News bulletin of the German Plant Protection Service

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The news sheet of the German Plant Protection Service was an internationally recognized and cited magazine with original scientific articles and reports on plant protection and related disciplines, but primarily with a phytomedical focus. It was published by the Federal Biological Research Center for Agriculture and Forestry in Braunschweig with the assistance of the state plant protection offices and from 1949 (issue 1) to 2008 (issue 60) by Eugen Ulmer Verlag in Stuttgart. The magazine was an official publication.

Frequency of publication

Issue 1 of the news bulletin from 1949 initially appeared as a bulletin from the Central Biological Institute in Braunschweig. Only in the years from 1950 to 2008 did it appear as a newsletter of the German Plant Protection Service with twelve issues per year. The main topic was phytomedicine.

History

Why the news paper changed its name three times in the 49 years of its publication is due to its extensive historical development.

The development of agriculture made it necessary to organize plant protection by the state. On the initiative of the "Special Committee for Plant Protection of the German Agricultural Society " (DLG), in 1897 an application was made to the German Reichstag to create a supreme plant protection authority. This was realized in 1899 by taking over the "Institute for Plant Physiology and Plant Protection of the Agricultural University Berlin" from the "Biological Department of the Imperial Health Office ". This department became an independent authority in Berlin-Dahlem in 1905 as the “Imperial Biological Institute for Agriculture and Forestry” and, as the highest institution of the German Reich, was responsible for plant protection in research and practice.

After the First World War, the "Biological Reichsanstalt für Land- und Forstwirtschaft" (BRA) took over this task in 1919, which fell apart after the collapse of the German Reich in 1945. The “Biological Institute for Agriculture and Forestry” emerged from the BRA. The offices remaining in Berlin-Dahlem and the branches of the BRA located in the Soviet occupation zone were combined to form the "Biological Central Institute" (BZA), which until 1949 was under the communist-controlled German Economic Commission . Due to the political situation, the BZA split up: the former Berlin headquarters was taken over by the State of Berlin as the “Biologische Zentralanstalt Berlin-Dahlem” in 1949, the other part of the BZA remained in Kleinmachnow for the Soviet occupation zone.

In the British occupation zone in Braunschweig in 1946 the "Central Biological Institute for Northwest Germany" was established, which was taken over in 1948 as the "Central Biological Institute for Agriculture and Forestry" under the administration of the United Economic Area and from 1950 under the federal administration as "Biological Federal Agency for Agriculture and Forestry ”was continued. The BZA in Berlin-Dahlem was merged with the BBA in Braunschweig in 1954 and has continued to this day under the same name as the “Federal Biological Institute for Agriculture and Forestry” (BBA) with its headquarters in Berlin and Braunschweig. The BZA in Kleinmachnow, meanwhile renamed the “Institute for Plant Protection Research” (IPF), belonged to the “ Academy of Agricultural Sciences of the GDR ” until 1990 .

Since the reunification, the BZA in Kleinmachnow has been part of the BBA again.

Since 2009 the series of magazines has been continued under the title Journal for Cultivated Plants , expanded to include topics related to cultivated plants, such as plant genetics, plant cultivation, plant nutrition, soil science and a few more. In addition, news and communications as well as personal details, as well as book reviews and literature references are published. The journal appears monthly, with distribution in Germany and abroad. The publisher is the Julius Kühn Institute - Federal Research Institute for Cultivated Plants (JKI) with its headquarters in Quedlinburg. The editor in charge is Frank Ordon , the editor is Anja Hühnlein (as of 2020). The magazine is aimed primarily at universities of applied sciences, institutes and libraries of the horticultural and agricultural university faculties as well as teaching and research institutes for plant cultivation, but also at institutes and research institutes for plant cultivation and plant breeding, plant protection offices, chambers of agriculture and agricultural advisors, research farms, seed farms and agricultural cooperatives.

Since 2010 the journal for cultivated plants has been united with the journal crop science . Two special issues in Crop Science are published each year , and the subscription price is included in the membership fee for members of the Society for Crop Science. Hans-Peter Kaul from the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences in Vienna is responsible for the editorship of crop science.
