Improving the management of two critical pome fruit diseases

Author: Timothy J. Smith

Published: 2011

Summary: The objectives of this project were: Fire blight of apple and pear: We will continue to test fire blight control products in the orchard, on both apple and pear, to assess efficacy of new or poorly tested substances. Orchard Replant Disease: We will demonstrate the positive effect on soil fumigation on the productivity and quality of apples grown under a very modern production system.
