STRAWBERRY - DISEASE AND PEST MANAGEMENT

STRAWBERRY

DISEASE

LEAF SPOT

   

MANAGEMENT

1. CHOOSE DISEASE RESISTANT CULTIVAR SUITABLE FOR PERTICULAR LOCATION
2. IF LEAF DISEASE OCCURS SPRAY FUNGICIDE FOR THE CONTROL OF LEAF DISEASE AND FRUIT ROT TOO
3. SPRAY UNDERSIDE OF LEAVESCOVERING ALL THE PLANT

DISEASE

POWDERY MILDEW

MANAGEMENT

1. To control powdery mildew, apply fungicides at the first sign of disease, that is leaf distortion and discoloration.

DISEASE

ANTHRACNOSE

MANAGEMENT

1. Heat treatment of plants has been shown to reduce the amount of disease but can reduce the viability of some cultivars.
2. CHOOSE EFFECTIVE FUNGISIDE TO CONTROL THE DISEASE

DISEASE

ANGULAR LEAF SPOT

MANAGEMENT

1. Application of registered copper materials prior to rapid growth may reduce disease, but such products are not very effective in managing angular leaf spot because the bacteria can reside out of reach within the plant tissue.

DISEASE

GRAY MOULD

MANAGEMENT 

1. (cyprodinil and fludioxonil) and Pristine (pyraclostrobin and boscalid) provide excellent control
