Bio-pesticides

Farmers face many challenges and constraints in terms of agricultural inputs. Synthetic pesticides are often difficult for farmers to access or afford and may have low community acceptance. Moreover, knowledge of how to properly and safely apply synthetic inputs is often limiting or confusing. For these reasons, many communities choose natural over synthetic options for managing pests. Options using natural and local ingredients include bio-pesticides that famers make on site. Benefits of bio-pesticides include the potential for increased resilience to pests and nutrient deficiencies and a sense of empowerment as farmers solve challenges with creative and sometimes simple, on-farm derived techniques that are less costly than synthetic inputs. ECHO resources and training focus on creation and use of bio-pesticide products that are appropriate for the context in which they are used and that effectively maintain soil and crop health.

    This article is from ECHO Asia Note # 37. 在亚热带和热带种子储存是一项挑战。如果没有干燥和冷环境，种子的质量可能会急剧恶化。储藏时的高温高湿会加速种子的新陈代谢并且促使食种虫增殖（Lale and Vidal, 2003; Upadhyay and Ahmad, 2011）。冰箱、除湿机和杀虫剂等技术能防止这些毁坏种子的情况发生，但是热带地区的小型农户不一定能利用这些技术。很多当地传统方式被用于防止虫害。一些处理剂通常在种子储存前添加到种子中，为了毒杀害虫，或者破坏和阻止昆虫在种子周围移动。一些处理剂能非常有效地减少害虫生长，...
