Crop disease refers to any harmful condition affecting plants, often caused by pathogens such as fungi, bacteria, or viruses. These diseases can lead to reduced crop yields, affecting food supply and farmers' livelihoods. Symptoms may include wilting, discoloration, or stunted growth, making it essential for farmers to identify and manage these issues promptly. Effective management of crop diseases involves practices like crop rotation, resistant plant varieties, and proper sanitation. Monitoring fields for early signs of disease can help prevent widespread outbreaks. Understanding the life cycles of pathogens and environmental conditions can also aid in developing strategies to protect crops from diseases.
