What pests and diseases have caused tomato growers issues this past season?
TomatoesNZ asks NZ Commercial Greenhouse Tomato Growers to complete a short survey.
TomatoesNZ collecting data on what pests and diseases have caused tomato growers issues this past season to better understand where money should be spent to help growers in the coming few years. Perhaps you have noticed a pest that isn’t responding to the usual treatment or maybe a pest that you’ve never seen before has emerged and you’re not sure how to best control it. Please complete this short survey and feel free to email me with any further information, so I can best understand what common trends there are that tomato growers are facing.
