(Depending on your Fusarium Species, or what host it is attacking.) Fusarium is saprophytic, which means it can live on dead or decaying orgainic matter, so by eliminating Stubble from old crops is a start. It will persist for around 3 years before dying out so if you can run rotational crops till then or resistant varieties you would be better off. Chick pea is a common rotational crop with cerals because it fixes nitrogen. Killing the fungus by way of fumigating the soil is costly and dangeous to human health and should be avoided. Burning stubble on the soil has been the most effective, and cheapest way of eliminating the majority of the organism to prevent it from attacking your crop. high temparatures would have to be achived during the burn so it may not work on small patches. Permits will need to be obtained for this.

Where would you expect to find Fusarium Geotrichum and Monilia?

Fusarium and Geotrichum are both funguses, and they can be found in soil. They affect plants and can cause wilting or mold. But monilia is the name for a common yeast infection that sometimes affects women. Perhaps you are referring to "Monilinia" which is an older name for yet another fungus that affects plants and is found in soil.


What plants does fusarium kill?

Fusarium can attack a wide range of plants, including tomatoes, strawberries, melons, peppers, and certain ornamental flowers like roses and daisies. It can cause wilting, stunted growth, yellowing of leaves, and eventually death of the plant. Proper sanitation, crop rotation, and fungicide application can help manage Fusarium in affected plants.
