Control of Neonectria in pear is uncertain in the future.

        
		
            
            

                
In recent years, there has been a significant increase in fruit tree canker in pear. The standard solution to this problem is the application of captan during leaf fall. However, starting next year, captan may only be applied twice during the leaf fall period, with a maximum dose of 0.98 kg/ha. This means we need to look for alternative solutions for canker control during leaf fall. In 2024, possible alternatives for the future were investigated at FRC Randwijk. FRC Randwijk initiated discussions with various crop protection manufacturers to see whether they currently have potential alternatives in their product range or if there are opportunities with products expected to enter the market in the near future. Ultimately, six different candidates emerged from this screening, which were evaluated during the 2024 leaf fall period for their effectiveness against Neonectria: five biological products and one chemical product.
