Abstract
Fine sawdust and shaving mulches were evaluated to determine their influence on the phenological traits, yield, fruit size and incidence and severity of fungal diseases on the strawberry cultivar ‘Zefyr’ during three growing seasons.
Mulches were applied each growing season at strawberry blossoming time.
These mulches were incorporated between rows in the autumn.
Mulches did not substantially influenced strawberry flowering and ripening time.
The yield and the amount of marketable fruit were higher with sawdust application than with shavings and bare ground.
These differences were not significant.
The incidence and severity of fungal diseases was evaluated in the second and third growing seasons.
The highest number of plants infected by Verticillium wilt was observed in treatments without mulching.
The incidence of other fungal diseases such as leaf spot and Botrytis rot did not differ significantly between treatments.
More rotted berries occurred on bare ground.
