Choose the Right Variety: Select a raspberry variety suitable for your climate and growing conditions. Select a Suitable Site: Choose a location with full sun exposure (at least 6-8 hours of sunlight per day) and well-drained soil. Ensure good air circulation to prevent diseases.

Use appropriate cultural practices, such as proper sanitation and timely pruning, to prevent and manage these issues. In severe cases, you may need to use organic or chemical controls.
