Dust agent for prevention and treatment of greenhouse fruit disease

Dust pesticides utilize the unique floating property of dust particles to ensure even distribution over the surface of fruit trees. This method allows for efficient and uniform coverage, making it a highly effective option for pest and disease control. Compared to traditional smoke or liquid formulations, dust agents offer several advantages: they reduce labor intensity, minimize human exposure to chemicals, provide more thorough protection, and avoid the risk of thermal decomposition or phytotoxicity that can occur with other methods. Unlike smoke agents, which require airtight conditions, dust agents can be used even if there are small leaks in greenhouse films. Additionally, they do not require dilution with water, thus preventing an increase in humidity inside the greenhouse, which is especially beneficial in controlling fungal diseases.
The dust particles spread evenly across all parts of the tree, resulting in excellent control performance. For example, 10% mancozeb powder is commonly used to manage grape downy mildew, while 5% chlorothalonil powder is effective against strawberry gray mold. 12% benomyl powder helps prevent apricot diseases such as brown rot and leaf spot. It's recommended to apply the dust agent at the early stages of disease development or before symptoms appear. A typical application rate is 1 kg per mu (approximately 667 square meters), applied every 7 to 10 days. In severe cases, it can be applied up to 4 to 5 times consecutively.
For optimal results, dusting should be done during early morning or late evening when wind levels are low. The process should begin from the far end of the greenhouse and move along the walkway at a steady pace, without entering the rows. While spraying, the nozzle of the duster should be moved back and forth to ensure even distribution. After application, the greenhouse doors should be closed to maintain effectiveness. This method not only enhances the efficiency of pesticide use but also promotes safer and more sustainable crop management practices.
