Potato Webcast Covers Soft Rot, Black Leg Disease Management

The Plant Management Network launches a new presentation in its Focus on Potato webcast resource.

January 2, 2013

No curative treatments for bacterial black leg, soft rot, and stem rot are available to growers. On top of that, no resistant potato varieties are available, either. Best production practices are a grower’s best tool to combat losses from these diseases.
