T/GDPPS 002-2022 The technical specification for the use of drones to release Trichogramma to control Asian corn borer in corn fields
Basic Information
Scope
Scope: This document specifies the breeding of trichogrammatidae for controlling the major pest of corn, the corn borer, by releasing them with drones, flight control during the release of trichogrammatidae with drones, professional safety precautions, quality inspection of the released trichogrammatidae, and investigation of the control effect. This document is applicable to the green prevention and control of the corn borer. Main technical contents: 1. Formulation of the release plan, including information such as the release location, area, planting time, and corn growth stage, as well as the release time, frequency, and quantity of trichogrammatidae; 2. Preparation of trichogrammatidae, including the selection of trichogrammatidae species, their breeding, and refrigeration; 3. Preparation of drones, including drone requirements (installation of the trichogrammatidae release system), training and certification of drone operators, and drone maintenance (battery charging, etc.); 4. Field release operation process, including warming the trichogrammatidae, making plastic bee balls, drone operation and safety precautions during field release, and the synergy between field release and chemical control; 5. Investigation of the release effect, including surveys of the egg parasitism of the corn borer and the damage caused by the corn borer.
