Abstract
The paper describes research on integrated pest and disease management in carrot crops, focusing on treatment timings for control of Psila rosae with a relatively new insecticide, Coragen®, the development of a forecast of the timing of the migration of Cavariella aegopodii into carrot crops and the use of biofumigation for control of soilborne plant pathogens such as Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. All three approaches show promise as components of integrated pest and disease management programmes.
