Experts from Chinese Academy of Thermal Sciences carry out programs in Hainan, Guangdong and Guangxi.

Over the past few days, the expert service team of the Chinese Academy of Thermal Sciences has been active in Hainan, Guangdong and Guangxi to carry out scientific and technological disaster relief. After Typhoon Weimasun, the Chinese Academy of Thermal Sciences, in accordance with the emergency deployment of the Ministry of Agriculture, launched a "100 experts scientific and technological disaster relief operation" and sent a group of outstanding scientific and technological experts to form a number of scientific and technological disaster relief service teams to the disaster-stricken areas of the three provinces to guide agricultural disaster relief and recovery of production after the disaster.

At the same time, according to the disaster situation, the Chinese Academy of Thermal Sciences sent experts to Baoluo Town, Xinqiao Town, Tanniu Town and Donglu Town in Wenchang City, Sanjiang Town and Yunlong Town in Haikou City, as well as Ding'an County, Chengmai County and other townships to carry out technical guidance on the recovery of rubber, banana, melon and vegetable crops after the disaster.

Guiding the root treatment method of rubber tree

Nearly 40,000 mu of rubber trees have been affected in Ding'an County, and rubber farmers' demand for post-disaster treatment technology of rubber trees is particularly urgent. In view of this situation, the Chinese Academy of Thermal Sciences actively contacted Hainan Provincial Department of Agriculture, Hainan Science and Technology 110 and hot farming departments of various cities and counties, and organized experts from rubber research institutes to go to Ding'an County to carry out disaster relief operations. on-site training on the varieties, rubber cutting methods and dead skin treatment related to rubber farmers, and went to the rubber garden to conduct on-site guidance and technical demonstration on the treatment methods of fully fallen trees, semi-guided trees and cut-off trees.

In the disaster area of Guangdong, a scientific and technological team composed of experts from rubber, sugarcane, bananas, tropical fruits and plant protection of the Chinese Academy of Thermal Sciences went to Xuwen, Leizhou, Suixi, Lianjiang and other disaster-stricken areas to understand the damage of rubber, sugarcane, bananas, dates, and other cash crops, and to scientifically guide farmers in disaster relief and resumption of production.

Next, the expert service team of the Chinese Academy of Thermal Sciences rushed non-stop to the cassava planting area of Hepu County in Guangxi and the flower base of Nanning City to provide technical guidance on post-disaster recovery production.
