Exploring Pesticide-Free Rice Cultivation:A Case Study on the"Spider-Based Pest Control"Demonstration in Suichuan County,China
To explore the biological methods and technologies for the control of the rice pests and diseases,we established a rice base in Yaqian Town,Suichuan County,Jiangxi Province to demonstrated the"Spider-based pest control"technology in 2023.Without using any pesticides and fungicides throughout the entire growth process of the rice,insecticides and fungicides,we artificially released spiders to control the pests and sprayed beneficial microorganisms to control the diseases.The effects of the"Spider-protected Rice"technology were stable and reliable and both the rice ecosystem and its farmers can benefit from the"Spider-based pest control"technology.
