Integrated Potato Protection System from Golden Potato Cyst Nematodes
An integrated system for protecting potatoes from a golden potato cyst nematode has been developed, adapted for use in agricultural farms of various forms of ownership and includes a number of protective measures: the imposition of quarantine, a differentiated choice of unaffected crops (in collective and farm enterprises: lupine, winter wheat, sugar beet, VICO - oats , corn, barley with clover seed, clover, winter wheat, fodder beet; peas, winter wheat, corn. In individual farms: strawberries, green cultures, table beets, resistant varieties of potatoes, carrots, cabbage, cucumbers, peas, onions, garlic, cabbage. To reduce the level of invasion by the larvae of the initial phases of growth and development of plants to a golden potato cyst nematode, the treatment of tubers with a Kruiser 350 FS bp is recommended. - 0.3 l / t, as well as preparations based on metabolites of soil streptomycetes (Averkom, Averstim), as well as planting tubers in an early-optimal time in order to obtain seedlings of potatoes before the mass release of larvae from cysts. Local selective harvesting of susceptible varieties in the budding-flowering phase of potatoes and destruction of sprouts of unwanted vegetation by manual and mechanical means of tillage are aimed at interrupting the cycle of development of a golden potato cyst nematode and reducing the level of soil population. Compliance with environmentally safe and affordable protective measures ensures effective control of the golden potato cyst nematode and the prevention of significant losses of potato yield. The developed protective measures do not require significant investments and are acceptable for implementation in farms of various forms of ownership.
