[Nongsuchuksan News = Reporter Shim Mi-jin] A pest control technology that predicts periods of high risk for fire blight infection and sprays pesticides at the appropriate time is proving effective in the field. As a result of applying this technology in Cheonan and Asan, South Chungcheong Province, the number of farms affected by fire blight has been found to have significantly decreased. On the 11th, the Rural Development Administration (Administrator Lee Seung-don) held a meeting at a pear orchard in Seonghwan-eup, Cheonan-si, South Chungcheong Province, to review the achievements of the ‘Pilot Project for Timely Pesticide Control Technology Based on Fire Blight Infection Risk Information’ and to listen to feedback from the field. This pilot project was designed to disseminate technology to the field that sprays pesticides at the right time by utilizing prediction information on fire blight infection risk during the flowering period.
