How to control the peach fruit borer? A detailed guide to practical control methods
The peach fruit borer, also known as the peach stem borer or peach spotted borer, is an omnivorous pest found throughout the country. Its larvae damage the fruit or seeds of many fruit trees, including winter jujube, peach, plum, persimmon, chestnut, apple, pear, pomegranate and hawthorn. When fruit is damaged, it becomes filled with insect droppings and rots; in severe cases, the impact on both yield and quality is very great. Control methods: 1. In early spring, scrape the bark and plug tree holes. Use black light traps to kill adult moths. 2. During the adult emergence period and peak egg-laying period, spray a 1000-fold dilution of 50% phoxim, or a 1200-fold dilution of 50% dichlorvos emulsion

How to Store and Preserve Fresh Peaches? A Detailed Guide to Practical Techniques
I. Cold storage. Peaches are prone to cold injury during low-temperature storage, and there is a risk of freezing at -1°C. Therefore, the suitable storage temperature for peaches is 0°C, and the suitable relative humidity is 90%-95%. Under these storage conditions, peaches can be stored for 3-4 weeks or longer. However, when peaches are stored at low temperature for a long time, the flavor gradually becomes bland. Long-term low-temperature cold storage will cause cold injury to the peaches, with browning of the flesh. In particular, when the peaches are moved to a high-temperature environment for ripening, the flesh becomes dry, mealy, and soft, and the flesh around the pit clearly

How to Safely Transport Live Fish? A Full Breakdown of Practical Methods
1. Sealed transport: Sealed transport places the fish and water in a sealed, oxygen-filled container for transport. Its characteristics are small volume and easy portability; for general adult fish transport, within 8 hours there is no need to change the water midway, the seal is tight, and the survival rate is high. A single oxygen fill can keep fry alive in the container for more than 20 hours, and it is even more convenient for long-distance transport of large quantities of fry and fingerlings. Methods such as oxygen-filled sealed transport in plastic bags and oxygen-filled sealed transport in plastic buckets can be used. 1. Oxygen-filled sealed transport in plastic bags: Fill the plastic bag with clean clear water, with the water volume accounting for 1/3 of the bag's total capacity

Tricks to Get Runty Pigs Growing Again: These Methods Are Very Practical
1. Deworming and stomach cleansing: Give trichlorfon orally at 0.017 g per kg of body weight once a day for 3 consecutive days. Two days after deworming, take 1 kg of quicklime, dissolve it in 5 kg of water, take the clear supernatant liquid and mix it into the feed to feed the pigs, once a day for 5 consecutive days, to clear worm eggs and various toxins from the gastrointestinal tract. 2. Strengthening the stomach and promoting digestion: Use 1 rhubarb soda tablet per kg of body weight (containing 0.3 g), with no more than 10 tablets per pig, grind into powder and mix into the feed, feed once a day for

How to prevent and treat ovine contagious ecthyma? A detailed guide to practical methods
Ovine contagious ecthyma, also known as contagious pustular dermatitis of sheep, is a contact infectious disease of sheep and goats caused by a virus, characterized by the formation of papules, vesicles, pustules and wart-like scabs on the lips, tongue, nose, udder and other parts. The ovine contagious ecthyma virus belongs to the family Poxviridae and the genus Parapoxvirus; in negatively stained specimens, the virus particles have a characteristic skein-like appearance. The antigenicity of viruses isolated from different regions is not completely identical. This disease occurs mostly in lambs aged 3 to 6 months and often appears in outbreaks; adult sheep in epidemic areas mostly have a certain degree of resistance.

How to prevent and treat porcine epidemic diarrhea? A full analysis of practical methods
In early 2008 the weather in southern China was severely cold, and on some pig farms in Yangjiang, Jiangmen and other places in Guangdong Province, pigs developed yellow or gray watery diarrhea, especially piglets, accompanied by vomiting, severe dehydration, death and other symptoms, causing serious losses to the farms. Through clinical diagnosis, laboratory testing and other methods, veterinary workers determined that the disease occurring in these two places was porcine epidemic diarrhea. Porcine epidemic diarrhea mostly occurs in the cold winter season from December to February of the following year, and pigs of all ages can be infected and develop the disease. The infection rate in suckling piglets, weaned piglets and fattening pigs is 1

How to Prevent and Treat Deformed Mushrooms? A Detailed Guide to Practical Methods
Deformed mushrooms manifest in many different forms. The most common ones in production mainly include: "landmine mushrooms", "hollow mushrooms", "big-bottom mushrooms", "hard opening and early opening", "red root", and "water rust spots". The main cause of "landmine mushroom" formation is that the casing soil material is too coarse, the soil is rather hard, the casing layer is thick, the surface layer of the casing contains less water, while the temperature and humidity conditions of its lower part and the substrate are suitable for fruiting body initiation and growth, so fruiting bodies tend to differentiate and form on the material surface or in the middle and lower layers of the casing soil, and then push through the soil surface.
