  Dutch disease - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dutch disease is an economic concept that tries to explain the seeming relationship between the exploitation of natural resources and a decline in the manufacturing sector.
The classic economic model describing Dutch Disease was developed by the economists W. Max Corden and J. Peter Neary in 1982.
It it rather difficult to definitively say that a country has Dutch Disease because it is difficult to prove the relationship between an increase in natural resource revenues, the real-exchange rate and a decline in the lagging sector.

 Dutch elm disease - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dutch elm disease is a fungal disease of elm trees which is spread by the elm bark beetle.
The disease was first reported in the United States in 1928, with the beetles believed to have arrived in a shipment of logs from the Netherlands destined for the Ohio furniture industry.
The disease spread slowly from New England westward and southward, almost completely destroying the famous Elms in the 'Elm City' of New Haven, reaching the Chicago area by 1960 and Minneapolis by 1970.

 Dutch Elm Disease
The fungus (Ophiostoma ulmi), the causal agent of Dutch elm disease, is probably native to Asia.
Dutch elm disease results in the blockage of the water-conducting tissue within the tree.
Sporulation by the fungus is enhanced in the egg-laying galleries, and beetles emerging from wood are often contaminated with spores.

Dutch elm disease (DED) is so-named because it was first identified by scientists in the Netherlands, but it is thought to have its origins in Asia, where elms show some natural degree of resistance to infection.
The disease cycle begins when beetles that have over-wintered in the bark of recently killed trees emerge in Spring and fly to neighbouring healthy trees, where they feed on the bark of the young twigs.
At the advancing margins of the disease in Europe, the pathogen population is almost genetically pure and exists as a single VC ‘super group’.

 Dutch Elm Disease
Dutch elm disease is caused by the fungus
Dutch elm disease control involves two different but related programs: (1) community-wide sanitation programs designed to reduce the level of elm bark beetles (principal carriers of the Dutch elm disease fungus); and (2) prevention of the spread of the disease through natural root grafts from infected trees to adjacent healthy trees.
There is no way to eliminate Dutch elm disease once it begins; control programs have as their object the management of the disease so that losses are spread out over a long period, minimizing the impact of the disease.

 Dutch elm disease
The disease is spread by bark beetle movement between diseased and healthy trees, and evidence of their activity will usually be noticed.

Diseased trees should be replaced with elm hybrids that show some resistance to the disease or with nonsusceptible species.

This syndrome has come to be known as "Dutch disease." Although the disease is generally associated with a natural resource discovery, it can occur from any development that results in a large inflow of foreign currency, including a sharp surge in natural resource prices, foreign assistance, and foreign direct investment.
Economists have used the Dutch disease model to examine such episodes, including the impact of the flow of American treasures into sixteenth-century Spain and gold discoveries in Australia in the 1850s.
These authors divide an economy experiencing an export boom into three sectors: of these, the booming export sector and the lagging export sector are the two traded goods sectors; the third is the nontraded goods sector, which essentially supplies domestic residents and might include retail trade, services, and construction.
