When is the best time to spray insecticide on rice?
The following points should be noted when spraying insecticide on rice:
Do not spray insecticide on rainy days; this is basic common sense that farmers understand, but many farmers often spray at noon on sunny days, which is highly inadvisable and harmful, because: 1. At noon, light is strong, pests hide on the undersides of leaves and inside stems, so the insecticidal effect is poor; 2. Under high temperature and strong light, the pesticide volatilizes and decomposes late, so the control effect is poor; 3. The pesticide is very harmful to the human body. At this time, pesticide poisoning accidents are most likely to occur.
It is best to spray insecticide between 8:30-10:30 in the morning and 4:30-5:30 in the afternoon, because in the morning at this time the dew has already dried, the pesticide will not be diluted by dew and have its efficacy reduced, and the temperature is not high; this is when diurnal pests are most active, so the control effect is best; from 4:30-5:30 in the afternoon, the light gradually weakens, and this is when nocturnal pests begin to become active; at this time, spraying insecticide can effectively kill nocturnal pests.
