Interpretive Summary: Specific Fusarium species can attack Phoenix species palms, including date palms.

This submission provides basic information on Fusarium diseases and their control, with a target audience of date producers.

Technical Abstract: UC Pest Management Guidelines provide information about managing pests, including guidelines for monitoring pests and using pesticides and non-pesticide alternatives for managing insect, mite, nematode, weed, and disease pests. The crop "date" is newly added to this series. This submission provides information on recognizing and managing wilts caused by Fusarium spp, along with other information on this disease.
