Plant-disease diagnosis & protection

Understand what the plant is suffering from before treating: diagnosis in the field and in the lab, then an integrated or organic protection plan.

Leaf with disease symptoms

What it is

Identification of fungal, bacterial and viral diseases, insect pests and physiological disorders on crops and ornamental green. The protection plan follows from the diagnosis: integrated — mandatory for professional users in the EU since 2014 — or organic.

When it is needed

  • Symptoms, decline or sudden plant deaths.
  • Insect damage or suspected new introductions.
  • Protection to be planned at the start of the season.
  • Valuable ornamental trees to protect.
  • Reducing treatments and protection costs.

How I work

Site visit and reading of the symptoms, lab samples when confirmation is needed, then a plan with intervention thresholds, products and timing — favouring prevention and low-impact tools.

What you get

A reasoned diagnosis and a workable protection calendar, tuned to crop, territory and season.

Treating without a diagnosis is the most expensive way to get it wrong.

A crop or a tree that isn't doing well?

Send me a few photos and the location: I'll tell you whether a site visit is needed and how soon.
