Costs associated with lethal wilt in oil palm

At the periodical meetings held by the Agronomic Regional Advisor Committee (Eastern Zone) there has been an effort towards standardizing the criteria for dealing with the disease known as lethal wilt. At those meetings, it has been discussed the best practices, at the agricultural and researching level, in order to diminish the disease’s spreading rate. As a result of this knowledge agreement and criteria unification, made in 2010, it was obtained a technological package for dealing with the lethal wilt. This paper presents a cost estimate of the implementation of mentioned package. This paper also estimates on potential losses associated to lethal wilt attacks using the methodology suggested by Cenipalma (BoletínTécnico No 22)
