MustGrow Achieves Control of Root-Rot Disease Aphanomyces in Greenhouse Trials
Control in greenhouse soil was recorded across a range of economic application rates.
- Control in greenhouse soil was recorded across a range of economic application rates.
- The disease causes severe root damage and wilting, with yield losses ranging from 10% to 100% in infected fields (1).
- Industry experts conservatively estimate $20 million in annual pulse crop losses in Canada and $100 million globally caused by Aphanomyces (1).
- Current treatment measures cannot control Aphanomyces - they are only able to slow down the spread and reduce the incidence and severity of the disease.
