Project Leader: Carol Shennan
I am a professor emerita of agroecology at the University of California, Santa Cruz, with over 15 years of experience studying non-fumigant alternatives to soil-borne disease management in strawberry production systems in collaboration with my colleague Dr. Joji Muramoto, and others. This current project is particularly exciting since it brings together people across 5 states to work in a coordinated way to develop integrated disease management strategies for different strawberry production regions.
