Growing tomatoes in open fields at this time of year comes with real risks;
• Fungal and bacterial diseases increase due to high moisture
• Fruit cracking and rot from excessive rainfall
• Pest pressure rises as conditions favour rapid multiplication
• Quality and yield losses if field management is not timely
At Mt. Pleasant Farm, we manage these risks through;
• Proper field drainage
• Timely scouting and disease control
• Careful variety selection
• Good agronomic practices
Open-field tomatoes in the rainy season are possible but they require experience, vigilance, and good management. High disease pressure, fruit cracking, rot & pest outbreaks are real risks. Good drainage, scouting and management often make the difference. Agribusiness Media
