Fusarium spp. infections in strawberries result in significant damage, including stunting, wilting and plant collapse. The efficacy of a 35% hydrogen peroxide solution and the azoxystrobin substance in controlling Fusarium spp. fungi on strawberries in Giurgiu County was investigated during the years 2022-2023, using the Alba strawberry genotype. The treatment variants tested were: control (V1); pre-planting immersion of strawberry stolons in 35% hydrogen peroxide solution and drip application of azoxystrobin during the growing season (V2); application of azoxystrobin substance by dripping during the vegetation period (V3) and pre-planting immersion of strawberry stolons in 35% hydrogen peroxide solution (V4). The results showed that V2 resulted in the lowest degree of attack by Fusarium spp., at 1.27%, followed by (V3), at 3.56%. The highest effectiveness (94.5%) was observed for V2, followed by V3, at 83.46%. Therefore, it is recommended that pre-planting immersion of strawberry stolons in 35% hydrogen peroxide solution and drip application of azoxystrobin during the growing season be considered for the management of Fusarium spp. infections in the Alba genotype.
