The BBCH-scale is a used to identify the phenological development stages of a plant. A series of BBCH-scales have been developed for a range of crop species. Phenological development stages of plants are used in a number of scientific disciplines (crop physiology, phytopathology, entomology, plant breeding) and in the agriculture industry (timing of pesticide application, fertization, agricultural insurance).
The BBCH-scale (bean) identifies the phenological development stages of the bean plant. It is a plant species version of the BBCH-scale.
The BBCH-scale (bulb vegetable) identifies the phenological development stages of the bulb vegetables ((Onion = Allium cepa, leek = Allium porrum, garlic = Allium sativum, shallot = Allium ascalonicum auct). It is a plant species specific version of the BBCH-scale.
The BBCH-scale (cotton) identifies the phenological development stages of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum). It is a plant species specific version of the BBCH-scale.
The BBCH-scale (cucurbit) identifies the phenological development stages of cucurbits (Cucumber = Cucumis sativus, melon = Cucumis melo, pumpkin, marrow, squash = Cucurbita pepo, calabash = Cucurbita pepo var. giromontiina, water-melon = Citrullus var. vulgaris). It is a plant species specific version of the BBCH-scale.

The BBCH-scale (olive) identifies the phenological development stages of the olive tree (Olea europaea). It is a plant species specific version of the BBCH-scale.
The BBCH-scale (other brassica vegetable) identifies the phenological development stages of other brassica vegetable (Brussels sprout = Brassica oleracea var. gemmifera, cauliflower = Brassica oleracea var. botrytis, broccoli = Brassica oleracea var. italica). It is a plant species specific version of the BBCH-scale.
The BBCH-scale (pea) identifies the phenological development stages of the peas (Pisum sativum). It is a plant species specific version of the BBCH-scale.
The BBCH-scale (peanut) identifies the phenological development stages of peanuts (Arachis hypogaea). It is a plant species specific version of the BBCH-scale.
The BBCH-scale (pome fruit) identifies the phenological development stages of pome fruit (apple = Malus domestica, pear = Pyrus communis). It is a plant species specific version of the BBCH-scale.
