Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs: Seize the Window Period and Strive to Fight the Battle of Preventing Diseases and Insects to Ensure Summer Grain Harvest

2023-04-26   

Summer grain is the first season of grain production throughout the year, and the wheat harvested in summer accounts for about 40% of the ration. In order to make every effort to fight the battle of preventing diseases and pests and ensuring summer grain harvest, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs further dispatched and analyzed the occurrence trend of wheat diseases and pests in the Huanghuai, Jianghuai, and Northwest regions, and mobilized, deployed, and implemented the current wheat disease and pest prevention and control work. From the perspective of growth degree, the winter wheat in Jianghuai and Jianghan regions is currently in its peak flowering period, with areas such as Huanghuai, North China, and the eastern part of the northwest starting to sprout and bloom. Recently, this is not only an important season for yield formation, but also a key window for major disease and pest prevention and control. Since mid April, the northern part of the Yangtze River and Huaihe River, the eastern part of the Jianghan River, and the main production areas of the Yellow River and Huaihai River have received more precipitation, with high field humidity, which is conducive to the infection of wheat scab and stripe rust. In addition, the spread of pathogens through airflow and wind and rain has added unfavorable factors to the winter wheat harvest. Experts from the meteorological department predict that there will be rainfall in the main wheat production areas in the next 10 days, and the rise in temperature increases the risk of wheat disease and pest outbreaks. The next 10 days are the key 'window period' for disease and pest prevention and control. The prevention and control work is tight and the task is heavy, and we need to seize every minute and spare no effort to do a good job in prevention and control. "The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs introduced. Various regions should make the prevention and control of wheat scab and stripe rust a major priority in current summer grain production work, and coordinate efforts in terms of responsibility, funds, technology, and services to ensure that the prevention and control measures for wheat scab and stripe rust are implemented in detail. The person in charge stated that in order to ensure the implementation of the "pest mouth grabbing grain" policy measures and the "one spray, three prevention" policy measures for wheat, The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs has recently dispatched five working groups to supervise and guide 10 key wheat production provinces, including Hebei, Shanxi, Jiangsu, Anhui, Shandong, Henan, Hubei, Shaanxi, Gansu, and Xinjiang, on the basis of issuing plans and holding on-site meetings to deploy the prevention and control of major wheat pests and diseases during the wheat spike period, as well as the "one spray and three prevention" work. By implementing multiple measures such as responsibility implementation, funding implementation, professional services, and guidance services, we aim to help farmers seize the 'window period' for prevention and control, implement effective prevention and control measures, and ensure that the loss rate of wheat stripe rust damage is controlled within 5% and the grain rate of scab is controlled within 2%, laying a solid foundation for summer grain harvest, "the person in charge said.
