Other Plant Disease -- Ireland
New outbreaks of the devastating disease fusarium wilt in lettuce crops have been reported in Lancashire, Cambridge, and Ireland [see link below]. The AHDB [UK Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board] confirmed the new cases, warning that the disease was now spreading. All the cases found were in protected lettuce crops grown in greenhouses. They called on growers to help prevent spread by implementing good crop hygiene and seeking early diagnosis if they suspect it.
