III. Iron pest control in Yemen

Common diseases and insect pests of iron in Yemen are tip blight, leaf spot and anthracnose, among which:

1, tip blight

It mainly occurs in the lower leaves, mostly due to low environmental humidity, dry basin soil and other reasons. When the disease occurs, the diseased leaves should be removed in time and water management should be strengthened.

2. Leaf spot and anthracnose

It is easy to occur in high temperature, high humidity and poor ventilation environment, mostly occurring on leaf surfaces and leaf margins. At the beginning of the disease, irregular, round or oval yellow spots appear on the leaves, and serious leaves die.

When the disease occurs, the diseased leaves should be cut off and destroyed in time, and environmental ventilation should be strengthened. At the initial stage of disease, 70% anthrax and formalin 600 times solution, 50% carbendazim 800 times solution, 75% chlorothalonil 500 times solution, or 70% thiophane methyl 1000 times solution can be sprayed. Spray once every 5-7 days, continuously spray 4-5 times.

3. Pests

Iron pests in Yemen mainly include red spiders and scale insects, among which, red spiders can be controlled by 20% dicofol emulsion 800 solution, 50% dichlorvos emulsion 1000 times solution, etc.; scale insects can be controlled by 40% methidophos 1000 times solution, 48% Lesben 800 times solution, etc.
