Great news for canola growers in Western Canada: Sclerotinia Risk Advisor tool has been added to xarvio FIELD MANAGER! Sclerotinia is devastating and persistent disease that significantly impacts growers' profits and the agricultural economy. The Sclerotinia Risk Advisor tool, developed by xarvio agronomists and validated in field trials, accurately predicts early disease risk in canola to support the timely and targeted use of fungicide. This leads to greater input efficiency, improved plant health, and higher profitability.

🌱 Did you know that the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) is actively engaged in the fight against Xylella fastidiosa? 🌿 Xylella fastidiosa, a devastating plant pathogen, poses a significant threat to agriculture worldwide. It affects a broad range of plants, including olives, citrus, and many other important crops. Through its initiatives and partnerships, FAO is playing a crucial role in researching, monitoring, and combating the spread of Xylella. By raising awareness and collaborating with stakeholders globally, FAO is working towards safeguarding our food security and preserving biodiversity. #FAO #Xylella #FoodSecurity #Agriculture #Biodiversity #Sustainability #GlobalPartnerships #Farming

🤝 Our Biologicals team AME is attending the AFSTA Congress 2024 to create awareness about biologicals seed treatment as game-changer tool to help farmers to manage pests and disease, address abiotic stress while enhancing soil health, to grow their crops sustainably and maximizing the food production. For the seed industry in Africa they also put under the spotlight solutions for growers looking to increase the quality and yield of their crops and support soil health, while tackle nematodes. These are present in almost all agricultural soils, and can have a devastating impact attacking crops and opening a path to further fungal infection, thus causing yield losses. Curious to know more? Meet our team! #seedcare #biologicals #innovation #agriculture #BiologicalsSeedTreatment

#organophosphates; These are used for controlling pests (bugs) in crops/livestock. Researchers say, they are primary components in herbicides, pesticides, and insecticides (Adenyila et al. 2023). A lot of scientists, in a systematic lit review (Fuhrimann et al. 2022), have reported their adverse impact to the environment and risks to human health. Perhaps its about time we promote biological measures for pest control to enhance the sustainability of food production systems, in the context of South Africa, https://lnkd.in/ekpdu9cJ https://lnkd.in/eDsmcXYd

🌾 New Article Alert:🌾 I just published an in-depth article on managing Khaira disease, a common zinc deficiency problem in paddy crops. Khaira disease can severely impact yield and quality, so knowing how to tackle it is essential for any rice farmer or agronomist. 🔍 Here’s what you’ll find in the article: Symptoms and Diagnosis: Learn how to identify Khaira disease early by spotting symptoms like yellowing leaves and poor root growth. Causes and Effects: Understand why zinc deficiency occurs and how it affects paddy physiology. Management Strategies: I cover practical steps from soil testing and zinc applications to water management techniques and organic amendments that support sustainable farming. Quick-Relief Tips: Discover immediate measures like foliar sprays to combat the disease quickly when it appears. 📈 By implementing these methods, you can protect crop health and improve yield potential! Check out the full article to gain insights into keeping paddy crops healthy and resilient. Let’s support sustainable solutions in agriculture! 🌱 #Agriculture #PlantHealth #PaddyFarming #CropManagement #SustainableFarming #KhairaDisease #RiceCultivation #FarmersSupport #PlantPathology

🌾 Field Trial for Bacterial Blight Management in Rice 🌾 I had the opportunity to gather some crucial data during my ongoing field trial aimed at managing *Bacterial Blight of Rice*. Working directly with rice crops and utilizing modern tools for precise data collection, this trial is part of our mission to develop sustainable solutions for controlling this destructive disease. Bacterial blight continues to be a major challenge for rice growers, especially in regions like Pakistan where rice is a staple crop. My goal is to contribute to improved crop management strategies that will minimize yield losses and enhance food security. Looking forward to sharing more insights as the trial progresses and collaborating with fellow researchers in the field. 🌱 #Agriculture #PlantPathology #SustainableFarming #RiceResearch #BacterialBlight #FoodSecurity
