TTDARES Holds 5 Lectures on Post-Natural Disaster Sugar Apple Re-Cultivation Techniques and Safe Use of Agrochemicals

2016-10-27

Sugar apples and atemoyas are important crops for Taitung’s economy. Since July of this year, Taitung has been affected by one typhoon after another, and this has seriously hindered production. So as to help growers get their orchards back in shape as quickly as possible, bring about sustainable development of the local sugar apple industry, and ensure the fruit is safe, the Taitung District Agricultural Research and Extension Station (TTDARES) of the Council of Agriculture, Executive Yuan held lectures on post-natural disaster sugar apple re-cultivation techniques and the safe use of agrochemicals in Luye, Donghe, Taitung City, Taimali, and Beinan on the respective dates of October 5, 7, 18, 19, and 21. Around 350 growers in total attended the lectures. Topics discussed included how to prepare orchards before a typhoon hits, post-disaster re-cultivation techniques, post-disaster fertilization management techniques, disease/pest prevention techniques, and regulations concerning the use of agrochemicals. In this way, growers will be able to speed up the process of recovery and decrease their losses while enhancing self-management, in turn augmenting their competitive edge.
