Abstract
In this Project, the amounts of pesticides remaining as residues in plastic pesticide containers after the triple-rinsing procedure were determined. The aim of this study is to find out whether the empty containers can be treated as hazardous or non hazardous wastes based on the maximum residue limits set by European Union and international organizations such as the WHO and the FAO.

Abstract
The Project investigates the impact of ground cover of mixtures of flowering plants on pollinators and beneficial insects’ populations in vines and olives (in field margins and inside the groves respectively). An increase in pollinators is not expected to directly affect agricultural production (either quantitatively or qualitatively) as neither of these two crops require insects for pollination. However, an increase in pollinators is expected to improve biodiversity (flora and fauna) in these agro-ecosystems. This goal is in accordance with the principles of the new Directive (2009/128/EC) for the sustainable use of pesticides.
