In view of the weather anomalies and the occurrence of pests and diseases this year, the arrangements for the prevention and control of the two-pointed moths in the mid-late and late-season rice planthoppers and the Huanghuaihai summer maize seedlings were carried out. In mid-July, a green prevention and control site meeting for crop pests and diseases was held in Zhejiang to carry out specific deployments to promote biological control, physical and chemical control, and low-risk pesticides. In early August, the site meeting of major pests and diseases prevention and control of autumn grain crops was held in Hunan Province, and specific arrangements were made for the prevention and control of major pests and diseases such as rice “two-shift” pests, rice blast, and potato late blight to ensure the implementation of various prevention and control measures. .
