Come learn about using biosolarization as a means for organic soil disease control with SCG and Jason Hirtz of Box Turtle Farm. We will discuss the methodology behind biosolarization and how it can help control soil-borne pathogens, pests, and weed seeds through thermal inactivation, toxic volatile compounds, and enhanced microbial antagonism.
