Belize battles sugarcane Fusarium wilt with new farming and tech-based solutions.
Belize is tackling a severe sugarcane Fusarium wilt outbreak in its northern regions, with a high-level team assessing the crisis from November 19 to 20, 2025.
Officials and experts from SIRDI, Taiwan, IICA, and the University of Belize identified climate stress, poor soil health, inadequate farming practices, and contaminated planting material as key drivers.
Recommendations include adopting tissue culture, seed cane disinfection, improved soil management, biological controls, and a new satellite-based early warning system.
Research on beneficial soil microbes is also underway to support long-term, sustainable solutions.
