Source text - English When different crops are grown on the same land, pests and diseases are less likely to damage crops.
Some plants can even ward off pests by sending special chemical signals into the air. Other plants pull pests away and these two plant types can be used in combination to push pests away from crops and attract them elsewhere.
For example, stemborer caterpillars in eastern and southern Africa cause maize yield reductions of up to 80% but, if you plant Napier grass nearby, the moths are pulled away from the maize because they prefer to lay their eggs on the Napier.

Pull
A different plant called Silverleaf desmodium produces special chemicals that push the moths away. If they’re planted right next to the maize, the moths will be pushed away from the crop too. Desmodium also protects crops from parasitic weeds so it provides double protection!

Push
When used together, these Napier and Desmodium create a strong “push-pull” defence, protecting the maize against both insects and weeds without needing to use any pesticides or weed killer.
Translation - German Wenn verschiedene Nutzpflanzen auf dem gleichen Acker angebaut werden, ist es unwahrscheinlicher, dass sie von Schädlingen und Krankheiten befallen werden.
Einige Pflanzen können Schädlinge sogar abwehren, indem sie spezielle chemische Signale in die Luft abgeben. Andere Pflanzen locken Schädlinge von Nutzpflanzen weg, und diese zwei Pflanzenarten können in Kombination eingesetzt werden, um Schädlinge von Nutzpflanzen zu vertreiben und sie an andere Orte zu locken.
Zum Beispiel kann die Stängelbohrer-Raupe die Maisernte in Ost- und Südafrika um bis zu 80 % reduzieren. Wird aber in der Nähe Napiergras angepflanzt, werden die Motten vom Mais weggelockt, weil sie ihre Eier lieber auf dem Napiergras ablegen.

Weglocken (pull)
Eine andere Pflanze namens Bettlerkraut (Desmodium uncinatum) produziert besondere chemische Substanzen, die die Motten vertreiben. Wenn Bettlerkraut direkt neben dem Mais gepflanzt wird, werden die Motten so auch von der Nutzpflanze vertrieben. Außerdem schützt das Bettlerkraut die Nutzpflanzen vor parasitärem Unkraut und bietet somit doppelten Schutz!

Vertreiben (push)
Zusammen eingesetzt bewirken Napiergras und Bettlerkraut einen starken Push-Pull-Schutz und schützen Mais vor Insekten und Unkraut, ohne dass Pestizide oder Unkrautbekämpfungsmittel eingesetzt werden müssen.
