Potato scab is a serious problem in Saskatchewan as scab levels above commercial tolerance levels result in grade outs and reduced crop quality. The pathogen causing scab is widely distributed in Saskatchewan and cannot be effectively controlled by crop rotation or chemical control methods. For the last four cropping seasons, this project has evaluated agronomic practices which could be used to control potato scab in Saskatchewan.
