This project is investigating carrot crown rot, a disease that has been identified as a major constraint to carrot production in Tasmania. It is responsible for determining the complex causes of the rot, and the field and soil factors that are conducive to its development in Tasmanian production regions.

This project has been funded by Hort Innovation, using the research and development levies listed below and contributions from the Australian Government. Hort Innovation is the grower-owned, not-for-profit research and development corporation for Australian horticulture.
