Economic cost of Fusarium : farm-level and regional economic impact of Fusarium in Alberta [2018]

Description

Fusarium head blight (FHB) is a fungal disease that affects cereal crops, particularly wheat, barley, corn and oats. This study provides an overview of the possible economic impact of FHB outbreaks at the farm-level and at regional and provincial levels. It is an overview, since various assumptions are used in view of the complexity of disease and data limitations. The study is an update of a previous, 2015 study.
