In citrus cultivation, huanglongbing (citrus greening disease) is the most severe, but there is a pest that affects citrus growth that growers do not pay attention to. Today we will talk about the damage longhorn beetles cause to citrus

In the early stage, longhorn beetles damage the root crown and main trunk of citrus, causing the root crown and main trunk to become hollow.

In a dry autumn, severely affected citrus trees dehydrate and die very quickly.

Dehydration symptoms begin to appear, and the whole tree dies of green wilt.

Control measures: 1) Strengthen orchard management, do a good job of inspecting the orchard area, and prevent longhorn beetles from damaging the root crown. 2) Carry out control work regularly, especially since April to July is when the damage is most severe. 3) Choose chemical control
