Nonfumigant Strawberry Production Working Group

Owing to potentially devastating soilborne pests, strawberry growers have relied on soil fumigation treatments for many years. the Department of Pesticide Regulation convened a group of industry and scientific leaders to develop recommendations that if followed, could accelerate development and adoption of management tools that manage soilborne pests in strawberries effectively and economically, and reduce the need for conventional fumigants. These recommendations are aimed at a diverse group of stakeholders including growers, academics, commodity groups, environmental organizations, and government agencies.
