Broomrape is a parasitic weed that poses a significant threat to California tomato production. As an industry we don’t want this weed to spread throughout the state. The California Tomato Research Institute has created a dedicated page for research updates, in-field management resources, and industry and regulatory communication on this issue.

Please contact Patricia Lazicki (palazicki@ucanr.edu) if you have any questions about broomrape or would like further information
