Prevention and treatment of prescriptions by selling medicines on a monthly basis

In the past two days, Le Xude, a citrus grower in Fairy Town, Zhijiang City, Hubei Province, discovered that the family’s orange trees were guilty of old problems, the leaves turned yellow, and pesticides had to be applied
.
He came to the town’s Chunhui Plant Protection Cooperative’s agricultural resources store to buy more than 400 yuan of pesticides, and showed the author a Yichang City crop disease and insect pest diagnosis and control prescription issued by the clerk, which recorded the name of the pesticide and the object of control in detail.
, Dosage, method of use, safety interval, time of purchase and other information
.
Le Xude said happily: "According to prescriptions, save money and work
.
" In the past, Le Xude bought drugs and liked to follow suit.
He used experience to fight drugs and tried his luck in the prevention and treatment effects
.
It's different now
.
The clerk who helped him write out the prescription was named Liu Yunying
.
Her basis is a "Monthly Calendar of Crop Disease and Pest Control" compiled by the local agricultural department, which lists the names, manifestations and control plans of different crops and different periods of disease and insect pests
.
When Liu Yunying sells pesticides, he must follow the prevention and control calendar and follow the "six pairs"-check the situation, diagnose the symptoms, write the right prescription, sell the right product, use the right method, and keep the correct account
.
? In 2015, Yichang City took the lead in implementing a pesticide management prescription system in Hubei Province, and selected some counties, cities and districts for pilot projects.
There were 85 pesticide management stores in Zhijiang City
.
According to Lu Yuan, an agricultural administrative law enforcement officer in Zhijiang City, most of the current household farmers are middle-aged and elderly people who lack knowledge of agricultural techniques and do not understand the correct methods to prevent and control diseases and insect pests.
They are likely to abuse pesticides and cause crop phytotoxicity
.
He gave the author an example.
When using pesticides, pay attention to the time of application and the interval between safety periods.
Some farmers do not understand the precautions on the packaging boxes and harvest them within a few days of spraying, resulting in excessive pesticide residues in agricultural products
.
? A small prescription can not only guide farmers to purchase and use medicines correctly, but also prevent pesticide operators from recommending and selling pesticides beyond the scope and misleading farmers in choosing and using medicines
.
Jiang Benxi, deputy director of the Zhijiang Municipal Bureau of Agriculture, believes that the pesticide management prescription system forces agricultural operators to strengthen their learning and guide farmers to choose pesticides scientifically.
It can also promote farmers' conscious learning and rational use of pesticides, thereby effectively reducing the use of pesticides and gradually achieving Zero growth in pesticide use
.
According to Jiang Benxi, last year, farmers who purchased drugs based on prescriptions had a 40 yuan reduction in the cost of drugs per mu
.
According to reports, in addition to compiling a monthly calendar for prevention and control, the Zhejiang Municipal Bureau of Agriculture also regularly conducts training for operators of agricultural materials
.
? In 2015, Zhijiang City issued more than 20,000 pesticide prescriptions, accounting for 40% of the service targets
.
Li Hui, the person in charge of Chunhui Cooperative, told the author that since the implementation of the system, the workload of the clerk has increased significantly, and the sense of responsibility has also increased.
"Only by letting farmers spend the least money and get the best prevention and control effect, the reputation of our store can get better and better.

"? In 2016, Zhijiang City upgraded the pesticide management prescription system, which not only implemented full coverage in more than 400 pesticide management stores in the city, but also selected 20 stores to implement the electronic prescription system, which was incorporated into the agricultural product quality and safety traceability information and credit platform for implementation.
"Red and Black List" system and traceability management
.
? Recently, the Department of Agriculture of Hubei Province held an on-site meeting to promote this innovation in Zhijiang
.
Starting next year, all counties and cities in the province will implement a pesticide prescription system in an all-round way
.
? Pesticide reduction, product safety, and well-founded rights protection
.
"The prescription system is a major innovation in the pesticide management mechanism, an important means to achieve "zero growth in pesticide use", an important guarantee for agricultural production safety, agricultural product quality and safety, and an important basis for farmers' rights protection
.
