Farmers Are Urged To Turn Tobacco Fields
By WILEY DUVALL
Agricultural
Extension Agent
Farmers are urged to turn
their tobacco fields as soon as
the crop is in the barn.
The blue mold epidemic of
this year is the first ever to hit
Madison County bur ley. In
past years, there have been
some isolated cases in burley
fields, but never an epidemic.
Not only did the disease cause
dead spots with mold on
leaves, but it went all through
the system of the plant. Roots
were stunted, the stalk was
stunted, and leaves were
twisted and broken. The
twisted leaves caused many
fanners to suspect fertilizer
damage. The fertilizer was not
at fault. Any affected stalk
could be peeled and a brown
color found under the skin
Blue mold was the culprit.
The bluish-colored spores
are gone and will not spend the
winter here. There is another
type of blue mold spore that is
resistant and can spend the
winter here. In the event
weather conditions next spr
ing are as bad as they were
this past summer, the disease
could be even worse.
For this reason, all tobacco
fanners are urged to turn all
fields completely under as
soon as the crop is in the barn.
This is a recommendation of
Purney Todd, Tobacco
Disease Specialist, N.C. State
University, and your local Ex
tension staff.
Fall turning should lessen
the chances of a blue mold
epidemic next year. Fall turn
ing will also decrease the in
cidence of nine other pests.
These pests are etch and brein
mottling, budworms, horn
worms, flea beetles, nematode
viruses, black root rot, and
weeds.
It is necessary that all roots
be completely destroyed and
all stubble, weeds, and trash
be completely buried.
In 1852, a fire swept Mon
treal, killing more than 100 per
sons and destroying three
fourths of the city.
