What are the prospects for mulberry planting? How to control pests in the process of growth?

Mulberry is a kind of tree planted all over our country, which has certain economic value. Mulberry leaves can be used as silkworm feed, mulberry branches can be made into baskets and other weaving utensils, mulberry bark can be used for papermaking, mulberry fruit can be used for fresh food or wine, and so on. Let's take a look at the prospect of mulberry planting. How to control pests in the process of planting?

What are the prospects for mulberry planting?

Large-scale mulberry plantation is the main form of mulberry planting in China in the future. This kind of mulberry planting form mostly appears in the rural areas where mulberry planting and sericulture is the main source of economic income, making use of tracts of cultivated land or newly reclaimed wasteland to realize large-scale mulberry planting in accordance with the scientific requirements of modern mulberry reasonable close planting. Large-scale mulberry gardens can be divided into more detailed types according to their different uses. For example, the special mulberry garden for young silkworms and the special mulberry garden for strong silkworms are mainly used to raise young silkworms. For example, according to the silkworm breeding season and batch, it can also be divided into spring silkworm mulberry garden, summer and autumn silkworm mulberry garden and spring and autumn mulberry garden and so on. The main difference between different mulberry gardens lies in the varieties planted, the ways of pruning and cutting, and there are also some differences in the distance between rows and plants.

Second, how to control pests in the process of mulberry planting?

1. Mulberry ploughing in winter

Winter tillage can not only improve soil physical and chemical properties, promote mulberry growth, enhance tree potential, improve disease resistance, increase mulberry leaf yield, but also expose overwintering insects, freeze to death at low temperature, or be eaten by poultry. It is helpful to reduce the number of diseases and insects that harm mulberry trees in the second year.

2. Bundle branches

After bundling branches, it is convenient to carry out winter ploughing and fertilization, as well as correcting the posture of branches, luring pests to sneak into the bunch of grass to survive the winter, easy to catch and kill and so on.

3. Protect natural enemies

When scraping the eggs of overwintering pests on mulberry branches in winter, mulberry leeches and wild silkworm eggs should be collected to protect parasitic wasps and be used by natural enemies to control pests.

4. Strengthen the quarantine of mulberry seedlings

Strict quarantine was carried out in mulberry seedling producing areas and distribution centers. Mulberry dwarf disease, bacterial disease, purple feather disease and root nodule nematode disease were found and removed in time, and the detected atrophy bacteria were destroyed in situ. When individual mulberry nodule nematode disease seedlings were found, the root nodules were cut off and burned centrally. All mulberry seedlings should be disinfected. The roots of mulberry seedlings should be soaked in 0.3% bleaching powder for 30 minutes, or in 45 ℃ warm soup for 20-30 minutes. The mulberry seedlings with mulberry leech egg blocks were soaked in 2000 times of 90% trichlorfon solution for 1 minute to kill mulberry eggs.

5. Pruning, pruning, punching and digging diseases

Pruning and pruning in winter can reduce mulberry stem blight, mulberry red rust, mulberry gray plaster disease, mulberry powdery mildew pathogen and the number of overwintering pests such as mulberry weevil, mulberry longicorn beetle, mulberry borer, mulberry thrips, mulberry spiders, mulberry inchworm, mulberry caterpillar, mulberry borer, rhombus leafhopper, etc. At the same time, we should pay attention to protecting beneficial insects. When the shrunken and diseased mulberry trees were found, they should be dug up in time and burned in a concentrated way. Mulberry bud blight was found in 2-3 months. Cut off the disease below 0.5 cm, burn it centrally, or scrape off the spot with a knife, and then apply stone-sulfur mixture.
