How to prevent fish fulminant hemorrhagic disease? Introduction to practical methods
In autumn, as fish grow rapidly, pond farming density increases, water quality is prone to deterioration, and the reproduction rate of various pathogenic pathogens accelerates, making it very easy to trigger fulminant hemorrhagic disease. The preventive measures are as follows: 1. Before the fry and fingerlings are put into the pond, they must be soaked and disinfected with 1%-2% salt water. The soaking time depends on the fish's physique and the temperature. When conditions permit, fish fingerlings can be soaked with fulminant hemorrhagic disease vaccine. 2. Change water and increase oxygen in a timely manner. Keep the water quality fresh and change the water frequently. If conditions limit water changes and it is inconvenient, quicklime can be slaked into slurry and splashed over the whole pond, and at the same time, aerators should be used reasonably.

How to prevent and control potato blackleg? A detailed guide to practical measures
[Prevention and control measures] (1) Implement quarantine, strictly prohibit the transfer of seed potatoes from diseased areas, and prevent further spread. (2) Select disease-resistant, high-yielding varieties suited to the local area to reduce damage. (3) Select and retain disease-free seed potatoes. In the south, use autumn planting for seed production, choosing moderately sized small tubers to use directly as seed potatoes; in northern potato regions, establish disease-free seed fields, and in severely affected areas adopt whole-tuber sowing to avoid transmission by cutting knives. True seedlings, or disease-free stem cuttings for raising seedlings, may also be used, planting disease-free seed potatoes to reduce primary infection sources. (4) Choose sandy loam and high, dry land for planting, prepare the soil finely, drain and irrigate in a timely manner, and fertilize
