Abstract/Contents: | "Site-specific management may provide powerful tools for the plant pathologist. Currently site-specific management practices emphasize assessment of relatively stable factors such as soil pH or soil fertility. Often these factors do not explain yield variation in intensively mapped fields. By broadening understanding of seasonally or spatially variable biotic factors, such as plant pathogens, the plant pathologist can increase the effectiveness of site-specific management practices. GIS, GPS, yield monitors, and remote sensing technologies are also powerful tools for analysis and description of the effects of plant pathogens. The spatial information they provide combined with variable rate technologies can become a tool for managing plant disease. For instance, maps of nematode population density have been used to guide nematicide application and models of site topography or microclimate have been used to prescribe fungicide use. This predictive capability linked to variable rate planters or sprayers enables manipulation of management factors such as variety, planting rate or the application of pesticides to control plant diseases." |
