Experiences of a West Texas Cotton Farmer with Phymatotrichum Root Rot

Doug Wilde, 4658 S Loop 306, San Angelo, TX 76905-7441

Phymatotrichum root-rot or Texas cotton root-rot can be a very detrimental to a cotton crop in west Texas. I will present a producers view of what kind of weather does the disease manifest under, when does it show up, how much of my land does it hit, how does it effect my farming operation, and what I do in my fields that have it as opposed to fields that don't have it.
