Diseases and Pests of Seabuckthorn and Their Control

Main diseases of seabuckthorn

Shrinkage

Shrinkage disease is the most common disease of sea buckthorn plants. It is caused by the fact that foreign materials are not sterilized and disinfected, thus carrying pathogens. In addition, sea buckthorn varieties are neither disease-resistant nor disease-resistant. People have a low level of management of sea buckthorn plants, and the conditions for sea buckthorn cultivation and site are not good. The main symptom of sea buckthorn's shrivel disease is that the surface of the mature fruits is uneven, and some fruits have even lost their original shape. From the surface alone, it is impossible to tell that they are sea buckthorn fruits. In this way, the shrivel disease greatly reduces the yield of sea buckthorn and affects its value. The treatment method is actually quite simple. First of all, you can prescribe the right medicine for the disease. When introducing some foreign species or materials, you need to carry out sterilization and disinfection to eliminate the source of the disease. In addition, you need to strengthen the management of soil, fertilizer and water to improve the immunity of sea buckthorn itself. Insecticide treatment can also be carried out in the early stage.

Inchworms are not only common in sea buckthorn plants, but also in other plants. The only thing they harm is the young and tender leaves of sea buckthorn.

In the later stage, basically a large number of leaves will be eaten. The prevention and control method is very simple. When spring is about to come after winter, the soil should be sterilized and disinfected to remove the larvae eggs. When the situation is serious, just spray some medicine.
