Latest Tutorial on Common Disease Prevention and Control Techniques for Yellow Peaches

It is currently the yellow peach season. Yellow peaches are not only sweet in taste and soft and glutinous in texture, but also have a certain nutritional value. Besides being eaten fresh, they can be processed into canned goods. During yellow peach cultivation, they are attacked by many diseases. So what common diseases do yellow peaches have? How should they be prevented and controlled? Let's take a look together.

I. Common Diseases of Yellow Peaches

1. Yellow peach bacterial shot hole disease: This disease mainly overwinters in the diseased tissues of yellow peach branches. After temperatures rise in the following spring, the bacteria in the diseased tissues become active. After the yellow peach plant blooms, it causes the epidermis to crack, and the lesions overflow from the diseased tissues. The pathogen is also spread by insects, wind and rain.

2. Yellow peach leaf curl disease: The occurrence of this disease is very closely related to weather changes. When yellow peach buds, the temperature is relatively low and lasts for a relatively long time, and the air humidity is relatively low, making yellow peach leaf curl disease very likely to occur. However, once the temperature exceeds 21 degrees, the disease will no longer spread.

3. Yellow peach anthracnose: It is one of the main diseases of peach trees. It is generally more severe under high-humidity environments. When yellow peaches are in the flowering and fruiting stage and remain under low temperatures and abundant rain for a long time, the disease will occur.

4. Yellow peach brown rot: This disease generally occurs during periods of low temperature, relatively abundant precipitation and relatively high humidity. The flowers of yellow peaches are the most susceptible to infection.

II. Prevention and Control Techniques

1. Choose excellent varieties

To ensure yellow peaches suffer fewer diseases, choosing a good variety is relatively key. When purchasing, try to choose varieties with strong disease resistance and suitable for local planting, and carry out disinfection treatment properly.

2. Do a good job in field management

Normally, promptly clean up fallen leaves and weeds in the orchard to reduce pathways for pests and diseases. This can play an excellent preventive role.

3. Rational fertilization

If yellow peaches are to have fewer diseases during growth, rational fertilization is also a key point, because when fertility is sufficient, it can improve the disease and pest resistance of yellow peach plants. Fertilizers should mainly be organic fertilizers, with an appropriate increase in phosphorus and potassium fertilizers, to improve the disease resistance of the plants.

4. Chemical control

When disease occurs, chemical control must be used to prevent the condition from spreading. Commonly used agents include mancozeb, carbendazim, chlorothalonil, etc.
