Crop Diseases and Their Prevention

About The Book

The Prevention of diseases in crops is still largely governed by the use of fungicides, but with the increasing prevalence of fungicide protection, as well as mounting concern for the environment caused by excessive agrochemical use, the search for alternative, solid disease control strategies is gaining momentum. The goal of this key publication is to examine the advancement and misuse (or possible abuse) of a variety of non-substance approaches to sickness control, with a focus on the need for a more significant understanding of product biology as the explanation for powerful disease control in the field. Sections of the book, written by international experts in the field, cover a wide range of topics, including: organic control tactics; plant protection; the misuse of resistance; and the use of bacteriophages.
