Crop Disease
Bulletin Available
To Alaskan Farmers
The farmer who can prevent
or control crop diseases will
have better yields and more
money in his pocket.
To help him, Plant Pathologist
Charles Logsdon has written an
extension bulletin, “Diseases of
Economic Crops”. In bulletin
900 Logsdon describes the crop
diseases, their symptoms, devel
opment and methods of control.
“This is not a complete list of
all diseases in Alaska”, Logs
don said. The diseases included
are those that are important in
Alaska, are potentially danger
ous or have been of concern to
growers in the Territory. Listed
are diseases for barley, oats,
wheat, forage, potatoes, cabbage,
carrots, cucumbers, lettuce, rad
ishes, tomatoes, raspberries and
strawberries.
Recommendations for plant
disease control will be changed
if necessary to fit Alaskan prob
lems, he explained. Suggestions
in the bulletin are based largely
upon information from state ex
periment stations. Little work
has been done to date with dis
ease control research in Alaska.
Logsdon is an extension spec
ialist as well as on the staff of
the University of Alaska Agricul
tural Experiment Station. His
bulletin is available in all Alas
ka extension offices which are
located in Anchorage, Palmer,
Fairbanks, Juneau and Homer.
