IPM for Protecting Leafy Vegetables Under Greenhouses

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Part of the book series: Plant Pathology in the 21st Century ((ICPP,volume 9))

Abstract

Leafy vegetables are a major production under greenhouses during winter season, grouping different species such as lettuce, chicory and spinach. Leafy vegetable are often consumed fresh, thus presentation quality of the product is of great importance. In this context, crop protection must resolve the challenging equation of a clean, undamaged product with a minimum or no pesticide use at all to preserve environment and human health. IPM strategies for protecting leafy vegetables must meet this challenge.

This chapter presents the main diseases and pests attacking leaf vegetables, with their localization on the plant and the description of the symptoms. This presentation should help the diagnosis. Then, we presented different levers that can be combined in an IPM strategy. These levers are classified in different categories, levers related to cultural practices, to soilborne pests and diseases and to airborne pests and diseases. A short description of each lever is provided, with, where applicable, an illustration of implementation and efficacy of the lever.

This chapter lists non-chemical crop protection techniques, from very well known to more recent and not yet fully adopted by the grower, that should constitute the basis to build efficient IPM strategies for leafy vegetables production.
