Looks like a form of leaf spot,which if left untreated would mean cankers would form in the grown parsnips.
Remove all effected leaves and spray with a fungicide.
You could start again in a different area.
Best i can offer,goog luck

Tomorite was all I had on me and just wanted to give them a slight edge

Thanks I'll cut the effected leaves off and hope for the best. This area of the plot hasn't been used for 2 years so I'm told. Too late to sow anymore parsnips

I was planning on sowing some autumn king carrots next to them this weekend and there are carrots in the bed opposite. Are there any precautions I can take to protect the carrots?
