Extract

In July, 1952, carrots growing in the Chatteris area of the Isle of Ely were found to be attacked by Ditylenchus dipsaci. The preceding crop had been wheat and for the previous twenty years the crop rotation of the field had been carrots, potatoes and wheat with an occasional crop of celery. There have been two previous records of stem eelworm attack on carrots in this country, both from the Chatteris area, the first in 1981 and the second in 1941.
