Wanted:  potatoes infected with pink rot. With the rains in late August/early September leaving wet spots in the fields, pink rot is likely to increase. Dr. Rick Peters with Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada is running a national survey looking at pink rot samples from across the country to monitor for fungicide sensitivity.

If you would like to participate, please contact Dennis Van Dyk (dennis.vandyk@ontario.ca, 519-766-5337) to coordinate samples.
