The invasion of autumn armyworm into China is harmful, and the harm of autumn armyworm is more serious than African swine fever.
The larvae of the autumn army insects appear in Taiwan, but the adults have not yet been captured. The Council of Agriculture has raised the level of epidemic prevention to prevent the autumn army insects from taking root in Taiwan and reproducing the next generation. Premier Su Tseng-chang changed his itinerary on the afternoon of the 11th and went to the Flying cattle Ranch in Miaoli County, where the first case of autumn military insect larvae was found, to inspect the handling of emergency epidemic prevention measures. He said, "the autumn army worm is more troublesome than African swine fever. The autumn army worm flies directly from China, and it eats corn, rice, grass, and leaves, not only farmland, parks managed by the Ministry of the Interior, schools managed by the Ministry of Education, farms managed by the Ministry of Education, and so on."
The first autumn insect larva was notified on June 8, and it was confirmed by DNA identification on the 10th. At present, there are still two cases to be identified, one in Ilan and the other in Chiayi. The Council of Agriculture judged that it was brought by the southwest airstream. As for why the sex pheromone trap could not catch adults, experts speculated that it had died after mating and spawning. The focus of epidemic prevention at this stage is not to allow the larvae to grow up. Otherwise, the autumn army insects will be settled in Taiwan.
● extended Reading "suspected cases in Ilan and Chiayi need to be confirmed."
After inspecting military pest prevention in autumn, Su Tseng-chang instructed to set up central and local disaster response teams to assist farmers in spraying medicine in epidemic areas where drugs can be used, while in epidemic areas where drugs are not applicable, they should be eradicated and buried immediately, and compensate farmers for losses as soon as possible.
Autumn military insects are important agricultural pests in the world, and corn, rice, wheat, and sorghum are the main harmful targets. Corn and rice are many kinds of crops in Taiwan. Su Tseng-chang called on the whole people to work together to prevent epidemic diseases and prevent autumn military pests. Otherwise, rice and corn will be eaten up by them, "this harm will be even more serious than African classical swine fever." At the same time, he asked the Council of Agriculture to prepare relevant epidemic prevention manpower, fully prepare pharmaceuticals and equipment, and send photos of identifying autumn military insects to all counties and cities, so that everyone should be more alert to autumn military insects. "if the localities do not cooperate, or the central department will be negligent, it will be held accountable, and you will be impolite."
The way of epidemic prevention depends on notification. If you find any suspected autumn bugs, you should call the epidemic prevention telephone number 0800-039131 as soon as possible, and the Prevention and Inspection Bureau will send personnel to check it out. Farmers, in particular, must not be ignored. The Prevention and Inspection Bureau said that during this period of time, they must take the initiative to inspect the fields to see if there are any pests that will eat up the fruits of their hard work.
