A survey of cabbage fields in Benguet and Mountain Province was undertaken. Clubroot disease of crucifers, caused by the soilborne fungus Plasmodiophora brassicae (Woronin) was found to be a serious problem in some fields in Atok, Benguet. Bangao, Buguias was suspected to be another affected area. All fields surveyed in Mountain Province were free from the disease, which was supposedly spread by infected seedlings. Clubroot disease has the potential to become a limiting factor in cabbage production under the conditions of the Northern Luzon highlands with their acidic soils and the short crop rotations used by vegetable farmers
