- Intervention effect In field experiments on spinach, cattle manure reduced root rot the most and lowered the DSI from 40 to 30.
- Intervention effect Swine manure and cruciferous plants had a good effect in reducing soilborne pathogens in the field experiment on spinach.
- Intervention effect Cattle and swine manure benefited plant appearance and spinach yield.
- Intervention effect All organic amendments and lime treatments suppressed the severity of root rot in sugarbeet and spinach.
- Intervention effect Liquid swine manure lowered the DSI in sugarbeet by 12% to 34% in greenhouse experiments.
- Intervention effect Liquid swine manure increased sugarbeet plant fresh weight by up to 239% in greenhouse experiments.
- Intervention effect Six ton slaked lime per hectare had the best effect on soilborne pathogens among the lime treatments.
- Intervention effect Six ton slaked lime per hectare reduced the DSI by up to 21% compared with the control.
- Intervention effect Slaked lime and factory lime increased soil pH by several pH units during the first days.
- Association The placement of lime in soil was of great importance for its effect on soilborne pathogens.
