Potato Crop Under Threat: Act Now to Combat Cold, Blight & Aphids

  • Cold temperatures increase the risk of frost damage to potato crops.
  • Early blight, a fungal disease, spreads rapidly in winter, causing leaf spots and shriveling.
  • Late blight thrives in 10-19°C and rain, capable of destroying entire crops.
  • Aphids (pink/green insects) suck sap from leaves, weakening plants and reducing yield.
  • Timely action is crucial to prevent heavy losses from these combined threats.

Why It Matters: Protect potato crops from cold, blight, and aphids with timely intervention to avoid significant losses.
