The disease, linked to stress and airborne spores, is crippling popular varieties like Kensington Pride. While pruning helps early, once established, it’s tough to control. The NT government’s $1 million research push aims to decode the pathogen and deploy AI-powered spore monitors to alert farmers when to act. With innovation and grit, growers are fighting back against this devastating threat. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
