Royal coffee rust is the most important disease in our coffee. This is caused by the fungus Hemileia vastatrix which infects the leaves of the coffee tree. Infection by this fungus causes premature leaf drop and, if there are attacks by insects, poor fertilization and poor growth conditions, coffee trees will be in a continuous stress and imbalance which will adversely affect production.At the agricultural Experimental Station have been investigated several strategies for the control of coffee rust, and we understand that it can not be based only in a practice. Recommendations for disease management integrates all practices that guarantee the vigour of the shrubs, the product quality and reduction in levels of infection of this fungus.
