Abstract: This country paper summarises about survey and identification of Orobanche species and their host ranges in Egypt, germination and development of the parasite, and methods of control. These methods include cultural methods i.e hand removal, flooding, crop rotation, including different crop sequences with clover , flax, femugreek, soybean, maize, lupin and tomoato, sowing date through Novermber and December months and its relationship with soil temperature, depth of faba bean seeds, irrigation frequency and soil additives, solarization, biological control by – Phytomyza orobanchia, breeding for tolerant varieties and chemical control by glyphoste, imazaquin and imazethapyr. These studies coverd a historical period from 1929 until 1998. This paper also considers the problems which face Orobanche control, and suggests strategies for solving these problems using adaptive research on Orobanche biology and control and training extension agents for Orobanche control through use of a computer – Based expert system .
