Simple changes make big difference in Panama fight

Putting yourself in the best position to face Panama tropical race 4 begins with small, inexpensive changes.

Exclude, exclude, exclude! Limit vehicle and machinery movement into your banana paddocks
Implement a system to manage footwear - provide footwear to people coming onto your farm
Zone your farm - designate areas for exclusion, separation and farming
Manage plant material - avoid sourcing plant material from other people's farms

Remember - come clean, go clean!
