Clubroot Is A Challenge.

Clubroot is a serious soil-borne disease of cruciferous crops. In canola, it causes swellings or galls to form on the roots, which ultimately causes premature death of the plant. It is caused by a fungus-like protist called Plasmodiophora brassicae. Currently, there are no economical control measures that can remove this pathogen from a field once it has become infested. However, it is possible to curtail the spread of the pathogen and reduce the incidence and severity of the disease.

Aberhart Ag Solutions is taking proactive steps. We are introducing a high-quality discussion with an expert in the industry, Dan Orchard of the Canola Council of Canada.

This public webinar will take place:

Friday, April 5th
8 AM Sask / 9 AM Manitoba
