  13. I knew they would check every year. I now a lot of plants entering Northern Ireland that would not have been checked by customs etc: over them the Irish border. I am glad is easy to control the nursery. As there was an outbreak of phytophtora ramorum in a nursery near us in the rodies three years ago. And it was confirmed in Japanese larch about my half a mile away last year.
  14. ps the that article http://www.forestryjournal.co.uk/pdf/Cleggan.pdf
  15. As most of you are aware Phytophtora ramorum is in Northern Ireland and Spread very quickly. But was first confirmed in rodies three years ago. But only identified Japanese larch officially last year. This is not the case, speaking someone yesterday from Scotland who a forestry manager was in some the forests service woods three years ago, that have now been felled due to ramorum. He was concerned with some of the larch trees as lot were dead or dying. He was quite cross as they said it was just a local issue and there was nothing to worry about even though he suggested it could be something like phytophtora ramorum. In While recently one of the lecturers from uni (Aberdeen) was over at Hugh O’Neill and Glenarm in Antrim. He was also worried. i think Hugh O’Neill may be suing the Dardni for their mistake up. It is about 3 miles from us in County Down at bohill. It was confirmed as a nursery very close to the site in rodies three years ago. Does anyone know any more about it. How quickly spreads etc. what can I do about An article about it in the forestry journal

  18. As we all hopefully know we are facing increasing problems with disease in the forestry and arboriculture sectors. With the advent of Pytophora Rramorum Pytophora kernoviae bleading canker elm beetle just to name a few few As liveing on a farm I know the restrictions that are placed on a farmer regards the movement of livestock (at the minute we can not bring animals from Britain to Northern Ireland due to blue tongue) (you can not buying meat from Argentina in UK because they have foot and mouth) It worries me the fact that a lot of nurseries readily bring plants in to UK without any checks From Europe and further afield. As a lot of the diseases affecting trees nowadays having brought in to the UK this way. A lot of the outbreaks starting nurseries. Why are plant imports not as strict. Some of these diseases will have larger long-term effects on the UK environment. And as we are islands is a lot harder for them to move naturally. It would be a lot easier this way, Is a lot harder to eradicate the disease once it is in the UK. Austraila are a lot strictue on this issiue.
