Success in introducing new pesticides to control pepper blight in Banan District of Chongqing

Pepper blight is an important disease that threatens pepper production. In recent years, the area of Banan District has been expanding, and the harm is becoming more and more serious. Once the pepper blight occurs, it will usually lead to 20-40% loss, serious loss of 50%, 80%, especially serious and even no harvest. The occurrence of pepper blight has seriously affected the production enthusiasm of vegetable farmers. In previous years, the vegetable base of Dazhong Village in Yudong Street planted more than 800 mu of chili peppers. Due to the harm of pepper blight, the planting area decreased year by year. This year, the planting area is less than 400 mu, which is 50% less than in the past.

In order to solve this problem, from April to May this year, the Regional Agricultural Bureau introduced 50% of the new pesticide produced by Ishihara Industrial Co., Ltd., and tested and demonstrated it in Dazhong Village, Yudong Street. 1000 times solution of 50% Fushuade was evenly sprayed on the whole pepper plant, once every 7-10 days. At present, it has been applied continuously for four times, and the control effect is very significant.

On May 20, the District Plant Protection Station held an on-the-spot meeting in Dazhong Village, which was attended by more than 30 major growers and pesticide operators from the vegetable base in the area. The meeting was presided over by Xu Jing. Participants first visited the test and demonstration site, and then held a meeting in the conference room of Dazhong Village. Liu Hongrong, deputy director of the plant protection station in the district, introduced the test and demonstration. Yang Shuangrong, secretary of the party branch of Dazhong Village, introduced the situation of drug use and the results achieved. Yu Huagen, technical manager of Ishihara Industrial Co., Ltd., in China, explained 50% of the technology used by Fu Shuade (fluoridamine) on the spot.
