Horticulture: Identification, Prevention & Control of Pests & Diseases

Whether you’re a seasoned grower or just starting out, this webinar will help you nurture the foundation of your garden’s success. If you already grow veg and would like to reduce use of synthetic fertilisers or pesticides, or are already growing using organic methods, or are a Certified Organic grower, we would love you to join Dr Audrey Litterick for a discussion on the growing of vegetable crops.

Following the feedback from the event last summer at Tomnah’a Market Garden, in this online meeting we will talk about pests, weeds and diseases.

Plenty of opportunity for questions! Join us (camera on or off!) to discuss the practicalities of organic vegetable farming:

• Key pests, diseases and weeds
• Prevention is better than cure – the main strategies to prevent crop health problems
• Crop rotation design and challenges
• Organic controls for pests, diseases and weeds
• Polytunnel challenges
