Plant Protection Ordinance (Elimination of the Mal Sacco disease), 1966.

This Ordinance gives definitions and sets rules for the elimination of the “Mal Sacco” disease in Lemon and Citron trees. The holder of land, upon which have been found low- trunk infected trees, will immediately uproot or cut the trees at foot-height and will spread ”2.4D” on the stump. Trimming of infected branches will be executed in case the lower trunk is not infected. All the resulting wood of these operations shall be burned immediately after uprooting, cutting or trimming.
