Plant protection drones assist in crop pest prevention and control

At present, it is the season of spring plowing production and a critical period for disease and pest prevention and control. In recent days, agricultural technical personnel in Shibing County have gone to various towns to guide and assist farmers in early disease and pest prevention work, ensuring agricultural production and income increase.

On April 7th, at the potato planting base in Baitangba District, Chengguan Town, rows of potatoes stretched out their emerald green branches and leaves, growing vigorously. A plant protection drone shuttled back and forth in low altitude, accurately spraying the atomized liquid evenly on the vegetable field, the entire process being fast and efficient. This year, Baitang Village has adhered to the approach of “government guidance and farmer leadership”, and has planted over 300 acres of potatoes in Baitangba District through cooperative+enterprise demonstration planting and guiding the masses to cultivate independently.

At present, pests and diseases have started to occur sporadically, and we must prevent and apply medicine in a timely manner. If not prevented, it will be very serious in the later stage. As long as there is sun or rain, pests and diseases can cause serious seedling collapse and affect production. “said Pan Limei, the head of the Plant Protection Station of the Agricultural and Rural Bureau of Shibing County.

At present, Shibing County is gradually maturing in the application of agricultural plant protection drones, which are increasingly being used in various work such as disease and pest prevention and control, fertilizer dissemination, etc. Replacing manual spraying with intelligent plant protection drones can effectively promote the large-scale unified prevention and control of agricultural diseases and pests, solve problems such as unscientific medication, low efficiency of pesticide application, and insufficient labor force for farmers. In mid March of this year, Shibing County equipped the agricultural department and 8 townships with new plant protection drones. The service scope is constantly increasing, and more and more farmers will be able to enjoy the convenience brought by technological development.
