CAUSAL AGENT: Orobanche crenata is a holoparasitic plant, without chlorophyll, which to obtain water and nutrients penetrates the roots of its host plants, which include practically all cultivated legumes (lentils, chickpeas, peas, vetch, garden peas, etc.). The stem, when it begins to emerge from the soil, resembles an asparagus.

Alfalfa is a very important crop in Castile and León, the third largest producing region. It is a traditional crop that is highly adaptable to both irrigated and dry land.

CAUSAL AGENT: Aerial fungal disease caused by various species of the genus Erysiphe (E. baeumleri, E. difusa, E. pisi, E. polygoni, E. trifolii, etc.). It affects virtually all legumes (pea, vetch, broad bean, kidney bean, chickpea, lentil, lupin, alfalfa, etc.).

CAUSAL AGENT: Caused by the fungi Fusarium solani (neck and root rot) and F. oxysporum (wilt), both with a high number of hosts, including legume crops (peas, chickpeas, lentils, vetch, latiros, lupins, beans, alfalfa, etc.). However, F. oxysporum is structured in special forms that attack a single species or a limited number of them. F. solani is more generalist.

In Castile and León, legumes are used as fallow crops in rotation with cereals, and their cultivation under irrigated land is practically ruled out. Legumes are a group of species belonging to the Leguminosae family, subfamily Fabaceae, cultivated for their fodder or for their seeds or grains, and are useful for both animal and human nutrition due to their high protein content.

CAUSING AGENT: Legume rust refers to several diseases caused by fungi of the genus Uromyces. They are obligate parasites, most of them specialized, each species or subspecies attacking a different crop (bean rust, pea rust, broad bean rust, alfalfa rust, etc.). Broad bean rust also affects peas, lentils, vetch, and others.

The sunflower is an oilseed crop from which high-quality oil is extracted for human consumption. The residues from seed milling are used for animal feed and in derivatives for industrial use. It is a hardy, adaptable plant that makes excellent use of soil resources and recovers easily after periods of drought.
