ArticleData in brief2026
Data on the uptake of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) practices in European agriculture.
Article in Data in brief, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
We here present data collected in a large-scale survey from 25 National Crop Clusters (NCCs) across 10 European countries (Denmark, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Belgium, Poland, Romania, Spain, Switzerland, and Greece), comprising 8 different crops (grapes, olives, apples, strawberries, wheat, maize, potatoes, and onions). Each National Crop Cluster represents a crop-specific network in one country, which includes farmers growing a specific crop and other relevant actors in its production environment and supply chain. The National Crop Clusters have been selected to represent a diversity of regions, crops, farm types, sectors and system representatives of European agriculture. They cover a broad geographical spread in different climatic zones, making them suitable for studying Integrated Pest Management (IPM) techniques, barriers, and opportunities in various food sectors. In total, 4,684 complete responses were obtained from the farmers, using an online survey in country-specific languages in 2024. The survey focuses on decisions regarding the adoption of IPM practices and low-pesticide use. The survey data contains information on farmers current and future use of IPM measures, as well as their perceived effectiveness. The dataset further provides comprehensive information on farm and farmer characteristics, farmers' preferences and attitudes toward IPM, their sources of information, and perceived barriers to adoption. Additionally, data were collected regarding behavioural factors such as non-cognitive skills and risk preferences. This harmonized and broad coverage survey data are particularly useful to identify factors facilitating or hindering the uptake of IPM measures, considering the heterogeneity of farmer's behaviour, socio-economic and environmental factors in European agriculture. Nevertheless, sample sizes differ across the national crop clusters, and the dataset is not fully representative for some national crop clusters. In addition, for several national crop clusters the share of organic farmers in the datasets is higher than the national average, which shall be considered when interpreting responses related to crop protection practices, IPM uptake, and information sources.
