Summary
From June 2005 till June 2007 different soil preparation techniques like chiselling and
advance sowing of medicinal plants and green manuring were proofed for their influence
on reducing plant losses of strawberries caused by root diseases like Phytophthora
species and Verticillium dahliae. The variants were combined with potted plants and
Frigos. The experiment took place on an organic fruit farm near Stuttgart, Germany, with
the strawberry variety ´Elsanta´.
Focused on root diseases, habit and yield chiselling combined with Frigos and green
manuring combined with potted plants showed the best results. Generally the marketable
yield was often below yields from conventional cultivation.
This project is granted by Bundesprogramm Ökologischer Landbau (BÖL, Nr: 03OE087:
2004-2006, Nr. 06OE221: 2007-2009). It includes also experiments about cutting
techniques at raspberries, plant protection at black- and gooseberries and weed control at
blueberries and black currants. The part of weed control is carried out by ÖON Jork
(Germany).
