Chapter 335: Night Thief Bug Found

The big frame of the Qu family's house has been raised, and there are only the work of building the walls, plastering the walls inside and out, and building a kang stove.

It's all odd work, so it's not good to hire someone to help, so I can only keep Qu Weiyang to clean it up slowly.

Anyway, I'm not in a hurry to move in, just pick it up slowly, and just pack it up before winter.

So after going to the beam, Qu Weiyang and Qiaolian went to work, and the children went to school.

"I really have to discuss with Uncle Han to see if I can get a kindergarten in the township and send these stinky children there.

It's better to have someone watch and teach them something, than to scatter them all day long. When she was about to go out in the morning, Qiao Lian muttered.

Of course, this is just to think about it, how easy is it to set up a kindergarten? There may not be a kindergarten in the county, let alone Daying Township.

It is definitely impossible at the moment, even if there are conditions in the township, there will not be a few families willing to send their children here.

There are a lot of children who have reached the age of not being able to go to school, let alone kindergarten?

Although Jiakang Jiayuan listened to her mother seem to say something, they didn't hear it clearly.

The two babies didn't ask, they just hugged Jiajun Jiahe, and then Qiaolian drove the car and went straight to the township.

When they arrived in the township, the two eldest went to school, the two younger ones were sent to Zhang's house, and then Qiaolian went to the township government.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw several cadres in the township discussing there, Qiao Lian was curious for a while, so she asked. "What's wrong? Why don't you deal with work, what are you doing here? ”

"Yo, Secretary Chen is here? As we were talking, I went to the field this morning to look around, thinking about what to do next.

It turned out that the crops seemed to have been bitten by insects, and small holes were seen on many buds.

Secretary, do we need to pay attention? Civil affairs assistant Qin Changming said.

When Qiao Lian heard this, she was immediately stunned, "What? Are there bugs in the bud field? No, go and see, go, you can take me to the field to have a look. ”

Nowadays, there are very few pesticides, and if you get insects, it will be difficult to deal with them.

Qiaolian knew that the hope of the township was bud rice, and bud rice must not have an accident, so she didn't care about any work, and turned around to go to the field.

At this time, Secretary Han also entered the door and had a meeting with Qiaolian.

Old Secretary Han saw Qiao Lian's anxious look, and felt strange and asked, "What's wrong?" What's wrong? ”

It is probably not a trivial matter to make Qiao Lian's face so ugly, Secretary Han looked abrupt and immediately asked.

"Uncle Han, Assistant Qin said just now, I saw signs of insect bites in the budding rice field this morning, I have to go to the field to see the situation.

If it's not serious, it's fine, but if it's serious, we have to find a way quickly. Qiao Lian explained a few words, and hurried out.

Old Secretary Han was also anxious when he heard this, "You wait, I'll go with you." ”

What are the crops? Crops are the lifeblood of the peasants, and the common people point to the grain in the fields.

If something goes wrong with the crops, what will happen to this year's harvest? That's no joke.

So, Secretary Han shouted that several cadres in the township came out immediately and went straight to the land that Qin Changming said.

When I went to the field, I found that on the leaves of some buds, I could see fine white markings, which were the lines formed by the mesophyll being eaten by insects.

If you look closely, it seems that the edges of some leaves are also defective, and sure enough, they are traces of insect bites.

However, there were no traces of insects on the leaves, and the big guy looked carefully, but still didn't find them.

"It looks like a bug bite, but why don't you see a bug?" Secretary Han and the others all felt strange, what kind of bug is this?

Qiao Lian also felt strange, so she was ruthless, broke off a bud stem and leaf, and tore it apart little by little.

"Uncle Han, look, the insects are hidden inside, they are very small, so if we don't pay attention, we won't find them."

As expected, the insects are hidden in the leaf sheath and leaf core, and they are still small, and if you don't pay attention, you can't see them at all.

Secretary Han and others hurriedly came over to take a look, and when they saw the appearance of the insects, Secretary Han's face turned white all of a sudden.

"Oh, it's not good, it's a armyworm, it's broken, it's bad, if it suffers from armyworms, all the crops in our field will be destroyed."

Armyworm, also known as night thief, shaving worm, marching worm, is a kind of wheat, corn, sorghum, rice and other grasses as a feeding, polyphagous, migratory, intermittent outbreak pest.

This insect usually hides during the day and comes out at night to eat crops.

The young larvae have a light degree of gnawing and are not easy to find, and once they reach the fifth or sixth instar, they will enter the gluttony period, which can easily gnaw off the rhizomes of plants, causing the plants to break and die.

And the most terrifying thing is that this insect is migratory, eats up all the plants on the ground, and will migrate to other plots en masse, so it is also called a marching bug.

Qiao Lian didn't know much about this before, but over the years in the township, she heard from the old people in the township about farming, and later she bought books to read.

So as soon as Secretary Han shouted, Qiao Lian immediately understood the origin of the insect in front of her.

Qiao Lian carefully examined the edges of the leaves, then immediately squatted down and pulled the soil on the ground with her hands.

As expected, in the loose soil near the root of the bud, there were quite a few larger insects.

Generally speaking, the young night thief insect inhabits the young leaf core and leaf sheath, and the older night thief insect hides in the soil during the day and does not come out, and climbs the plant at night and begins to eat, so it is called the night thief insect.

"Uncle Han, these insects look like they should have reached the third or fourth inage, we must take measures quickly.

Otherwise, wait for them to grow to five or six years old, not to mention this land, it will be difficult to preserve the land in our township. ”

Qiao Lian looked at the insects in the soil and felt that something was a bit serious.

"What can be done? This insect is not easy to catch, it doesn't come out during the day, you can't catch it if you want to, it's pitch black at night, how can we catch the bug? ”

The old farmer is most afraid of the crops disaster, whether it is drought, flood or insect disaster, it will affect the growth of crops, and even the harvest will be lost.

And this kind of night thief bug, once it breaks out, it is really possible that the particles will not be harvested.

"Let's go, hurry up and get back to the village, I'll call Viyan."

Qiao Lian is not a native of these old farmers, in previous lives, people were used to using pesticides to deal with all kinds of pests.

From the moment she saw these insects, Qiaolian was wondering in her mind, what insecticide works well and is not too polluting?

"Is it useful to call Viyan? He's in the supply and marketing cooperative, and it won't help him to come back. ”

Secretary Han and the others still didn't react, and they didn't understand what was the use of looking for Qu Weiyang.

Qiao Lian didn't explain, but ran back to the township government with a flying footsteps, went straight to Secretary Han's office, grabbed the phone and called, "Pick up the county supply and marketing cooperatives for me." ”

At this time, you need to ask the operator to connect the phone before you can call the other party.
