Cabbage rot affects potatoes? Defy resistance with clever plant protection and secure your harvest.
The late blight disease is considered one of the most dangerous potato diseases worldwide, causing significant damage in the field and during storage. In recent years, the situation has worsened due to increasing infection pressure and resistance to important fungicides.
Of particular concern is the so-called primary infection, where infected seed potatoes introduce the disease into the soil, putting the next season at risk. Controlling this disease now requires a flexible and well-planned fungicide strategy.
Farmers must use the remaining fungicides wisely to effectively combat the disease and avoid further resistance for as long as possible. Tips for controlling late blight, including what farmers should consider when selecting fungicides to ensure effectiveness and how they should adjust spraying intervals to avoid yield losses, can be found in our digital magazine.
