Rice pest prevention and control has entered a three-dimensional era

In order to show the working performance and efficiency of the new rice field plant protection machinery and improve the equipment level of specialized unified control of rice diseases and insect pests, from August 6 to 7, the national rice field plant protection machinery application on-site observation display and technical training activities organized by the National Agricultural Technology extension Service Center were held in Guannan County, Jiangsu Province. The training site showed more than 20 new types of rice field special plant protection machines, such as 6 kinds of self-propelled sprayers, 14 kinds of unmanned plant protection machines, and 2 kinds of rice field self-propelled sprayers introduced from Japan, which were independently developed in China in recent years.

On display at the meeting were 11 enterprises, including Jinxiu Qiancun Agricultural material chain (Beijing) Co., Ltd., Shandong Guardian Plant Protection Machinery Co., Ltd., the participants watched the demonstration of plant protection operations on rice, such as multi-rotor UAV, single-rotor UAV, self-propelled sprayer, etc., and the participants were amazed at the working efficiency of these advanced new plant protection machinery. Many people have asked the enterprise staff about the efficiency, price and subsidy of the machine.

Among them, the new generation of agricultural aviation plant protection UAV demonstrated at the scene by "Qiancun Flying Defense" has attracted great attention of the participants with the characteristics of quick disassembly module design, convenient maintenance, low maintenance cost, stable performance, good anti-fatigue, and so on. According to reports, the "Thousand Village Flying Defense" aviation plant protection UAV adopts an integrated design of power support, which can ensure the safety and stability of flight; the controllable spraying regulation system can adjust the spraying amount at any time according to the proficiency of flying hands. 1.5 million mu per minute, each sortie can work 12,000 mu, and can complete 250 million 350 mu of working area every day.

More than 160 experts from the plant protection system of 17 provinces and cities, including Jiangsu and Hubei, and representatives of specialized rice pest prevention and control organizations attended the meeting, and more than 400 local farmers and representatives of agricultural professional cooperative organizations attended the meeting. we will jointly discuss the professional prevention and control of rice diseases and insect pests, the application of new plant protection machinery and the technology of pesticide application.

The operation demonstration site of the new rice field plant protection machinery is located in Duigougang Town, Guannan County, Jiangsu Province. In 2013, it was established as a demonstration base for creating ten thousand mu of rice with high yield in Lianyungang City. In 2014, the rice planting area of the town was 3500 mu. Using high-yield and accurate quantitative cultivation techniques, rice pest control was contracted by Guannan County plant protection professional cooperatives, and the coverage rate of unified control reached 91%.

It is understood that this activity is also one of the important contents of the activities of the Ministry of Agriculture to serve farmers this year, mainly on-site training in the use of special plant protection machinery for rice fields, so that professional prevention and control organizations and the broad masses of farmers can understand and master the operational performance and efficiency of the new plant protection machinery in rice fields, and comprehensively promote the level of professional and unified control of rice diseases and insect pests with modern plant protection equipment.

This is also the exhibition and training activity of rice field plant protection machinery organized by the National Agricultural Technology Center for the second year in a row, mainly setting up a platform for technical training, cooperation and exchange for all aspects. through demonstration and training to promote plant protection departments, professional unified prevention and control organizations, and farmers' professional cooperatives in combination with local conditions, actively demonstrate and promote new products, and promote relevant enterprises to constantly improve product performance and reduce costs and prices.

Through training activities, professional unified control organizations and the broad masses of farmers can broaden their horizons, integrate paddy field pest prevention and control models, and comprehensively promote rice pest prevention and control work, so as to provide technical support for further improving the ability and level of specialized unified pest control in paddy fields in China.

Relevant experts said that the successful holding of the on-the-spot meeting marked the equipment level of China's specialized unified prevention and control of rice diseases and insect pests, and entered the era of "air + ground" three-dimensional prevention and control in which self-propelled sprayers on the ground and aeronautical plant protection sprayers work together.
