A farmer in Cao Phong township (Cao Phong district) prune branches to create canopy and protect citrus trees from harmful pests.
Statistics from the Cao Phong district’s Centre for Agricultural Services, currently, greening disease is attacking local citrus farms, affecting 0.5-1 percent of total trees. Meanwhile, leaf yellowing and root rot are impacting 1-2 percent of the total trees, along with other diseases caused by small spiders and grasshoppers.
Pham Sum An, Vice Director of the district’s Centre for Agricultural Services, said that in order to protect citrus farms from pests and diseases amid the season changing period, the centre has advised farmers to apply sustainable cultivation methods and strictly implement regulations on environmental protection in using fertilizers and chemicals as well as agricultural waste treatment.
Meanwhile, the centre has directed its experts to give guidance to farmers on preventive measures against pests and diseases. At the same time, it has also collected data on the pest and disease situation on citrus trees so as to give farmers timely guidance and recommendations, An said.
Accordingly, farmers in communes and townships should closely monitor and care for their farms and strengthen the application of preventive measures, especially in the period of fruit development, with strict implementation of technical procedures without using fertilizers and pesticides that have unknown origin and are excluded in the list of fertilizers and pesticides allowed to be used in Vietnam./.
