The
local government in Guangdong Province has revealed the plan to put China's
plan for zero growth in pesticides usage for their province into action. The
main measurements are regarding building demonstration bases to promote
large-scale prevention and technologically advanced machinery usage.
In
order to increase the efficiency of agriculture and avoid extensive pollution
of water and farmland, China's government is working on the zero growth in the
use of pesticides and chemical fertilisers till 2020. While the government in
Beijing is giving the overall directions, the local authorities in the
provinces have to carry out the ideas in form of actual plans and measurements.
One
of the key measurements contains guiding and educating China's farmers on a
scientific and rational use of pesticides, in order to improve the utilisation
rate and using sustainable and low-toxic chemicals. The local agricultural
authorities are supposed to enhance the communication and coordination in order
to achieve the zero growth in the use of pesticides.
According
to market intelligence firm CCM, the authorities in China's economically
important southern region Guangdong have released their plan to achieve the
zero growth of pesticides use till 2020.The focus is set hereby on green
prevention, large-scale pest and rice prevention, as well as the pesticide
utilisation rate.
One
of the main measurements is the establishment of demonstration bases for green
prevention and control technology as well as for controlling fruits,
vegetables, and tea planting. The demonstration bases are supposed to increase
the possibility of large-scale prevention for crops and ensure the right
medical treatment in case of pest occurrences.
Another
major point regards the upgrading of machinery in order to ensure a high
efficiency of pesticide usage. Therefore, several agribusiness cooperation
demonstration bases have been built to promote a direct-supply-and-selling mode
of medical equipment for manufacturers and farmers. The authorities hope for
decreasing production costs and higher technology use in farming.
The
local government is furthermore separating the specific education and control
system promotion for farmers in high developed areas and farmers and slower
developing areas. For the farmers in the fast developing area, unified
prevention for the whole village is going to be promoted, which will last for
several years. Slower developing areas will witness the focus on promoting
different choices of prevention for a short period of time as a trial to
convince farmers of the benefits.
The
new policy has come to effect officially in April. The corresponding
authorities are ordered to carry out the activities in a scheduled plan,
starting with technical training courses and promotion of zero growth
pesticides use. Later, the supervision systems will be implemented and by the
end of the year the improvement will be gathered and analysed.
