By December 5, the whole Hau Giang province recorded nearly 800 hectares of winter-spring rice at the seedling stage being attacked by golden apple snails, an increase of nearly 400 hectares compared to about 10 days ago; with a snail density of 1 – 3 snails/m2 and distributed in Vi Thuy district, Long My district, Chau Thanh A district and Vi Thanh city, Hau Giang newspaper. In addition to the golden apple snail, the provincial agricultural sector also recorded two other pests that are affecting the early winter-spring rice crop of farmers: rats biting and destroying nearly 100 hectares, with an impact rate of 5 – 10% on the same area; at the same time, more than 20 hectares are damaged by thrips, with a density of 1,500 – 3,000 individuals/m2. On the other hand, many times right after farmers have finished planting rice, there is a prolonged period of heavy rain, causing the seeds to be buried in the soil, thereby causing a lot of rice to die in the fields, making it difficult for farmers to work on rice planting. According to the forecast of the provincial agricultural sector, the situation of golden apple snails and rats biting and destroying winter-spring rice at the seedling stage will continue. Therefore, the provincial agricultural sector recommends that farmers need to collect and catch snails and golden apple snail eggs in the fields before planting; Prioritizing manual measures and limiting the use of chemicals to kill snails to protect the environment and avoid poisoning and killing aquatic animals. #rice_price #agriculture #fresh_rice_price #farmer #farm #ir50404 #Fresh_rice_husk #Long_An_sticky_rice #OM9577 #OM9582 #OM5451 #NangHoa9 #OM6976 #OM18 #Japanese_rice #Western_Farmer #Farmer_news #Market_prices
