Yet to warm up in Chile, but already brighter in New Zealand

Producers are now putting the last few seasons, marked by the lightning spread of Psa (Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae), behind them. They know that for the moment there is no genuinely effective treatment for eradicating the disease, so they have to manage it pending new technical solutions. Nonetheless, the renewal is already in place, particularly in the yellow varieties, heavily affected by the bacterium, after the entire Hort 16 stock was uprooted in both New Zealand and Chile.
