AN EVALUATION OF FUNGICIDE SPRAYS FOR CONTROLLING TOMATO LEAF DISEASES DURING THE RAINS IN THE NORTHERN STATES OF NIGERIA |
| Author: | J.G. Quinn |
| Abstract:
Three years results of spraying a rain-fed tomato crop with fungicides at nine sites in the northern states of Nigeria are evaluated. Three fungicides, mancozeb, captafol and cuprous oxide were used at high volume rates (1,121 1/ha) and applied at 7 and 14 days intervals. The practical problems associated with high volume rates of fungicide application are discussed. | |
