Alternativas para el control de enfermedades en yuca

The different alternatives for disease control in cassava, reported as efficient and that could be taken into account when designing technological packages for cassava production, are summarized. These are cultu-ral control (crop rotation, planting on furrows, elimination of crop resi-dues, distance between plants, selection of planting material, weeding, and use of irradiation), var. control, chemical control, biological con-trol, erradication, and quarantine measures. Tables are also in-cluded with the results obtained from the application of the different con-trol measures mentioned. There is a need for techno-logical packages for the integrated control of cassava diseases, which should be revised periodically and by regions, to make adjustments according to the ecological circumstances.
