CROP PRIORITIES
Pests, diseases and growing conditions can produce similar symptoms. Connect field history and diagnosis with the crop stage before choosing an input.
Aflatoxin contamination affects peanut food safety and marketability. Biological prevention belongs within an integrated field-to-storage quality programme. The ARC research associated with Orvan reports reduced peanut aflatoxin contamination alongside improved nodulation; toxin measurements and fungal abundance are distinct evidence endpoints.
Discuss this crop challenge →Nematode problems require species-specific decisions: peanut root-knot and southern root-knot do not have identical host ranges. Investigate uneven growth and root damage with a diagnostic service. Where peanut root-knot is established, locally suitable resistant varieties and rotation choices should form the basis of an integrated management programme.
View biological products →Discuss this crop challenge →Southern stem rot, also called white mold in peanut production, can cause localised wilting and plant loss. Review field history and inspect the lower canopy rather than judging crop health only from leaf colour. Management should follow regional disease guidance and combine preventive cultural measures with an appropriate protection programme.
Discuss this crop challenge →THROUGH THE SEASON
From establishment to harvest or renewal, the purpose of crop management changes with each stage.
Match the product format to the crop and existing sowing system. Seed, root-zone and in-furrow products have different roles and supporting documentation.
Root establishment and nodulation should be considered together. Native rhizobia and crop history influence the biological starting point.
Flowering and pegging connect vegetative growth with pod production. Keep root-zone and mineral-nutrition roles distinct.
During pod development, maintain the full crop-management programme. Orvan field results retain the specific crop and trial context.
BIOLOGICAL INPUTS
These products have distinct roles in nutrition, root development and crop management. For a pest or disease, product selection also requires evidence for the identified target and applicable market label.
