hi I am a rice farmer any other rice

hi I am a rice farmer any other rice farmers out there please raise your

farmers out there please raise your

farmers out there please raise your hands I work with them so let me tell

hands I work with them so let me tell

hands I work with them so let me tell you something the rest of you something

you something the rest of you something

you something the rest of you something about being a rice farmer it’s really

about being a rice farmer it’s really

about being a rice farmer it’s really hard work you have to wake up at 6:00 in

hard work you have to wake up at 6:00 in

hard work you have to wake up at 6:00 in the morning go out in the field whether

the morning go out in the field whether

the morning go out in the field whether it be a Sun or rain I work on your field

it be a Sun or rain I work on your field

it be a Sun or rain I work on your field until the Sun Goes Down and my biggest

until the Sun Goes Down and my biggest

until the Sun Goes Down and my biggest dream as a rice farmer is to get great

dream as a rice farmer is to get great

dream as a rice farmer is to get great great yield by the end of the season and

great yield by the end of the season and

great yield by the end of the season and sell everything on a really good price

sell everything on a really good price

sell everything on a really good price and then all my hard work will be paid

and then all my hard work will be paid

and then all my hard work will be paid off but one of my worst nightmares is

off but one of my worst nightmares is

off but one of my worst nightmares is that before the end of the season comes

that before the end of the season comes

that before the end of the season comes all my precious plants will be eaten

all my precious plants will be eaten

all my precious plants will be eaten away by insects to address the issue of

away by insects to address the issue of

away by insects to address the issue of insect pests the obvious choice is to

insect pests the obvious choice is to

insect pests the obvious choice is to use pesticides right but a recent study

use pesticides right but a recent study

use pesticides right but a recent study from the FAO has caught my attention it

from the FAO has caught my attention it

from the FAO has caught my attention it surveyed 100 Chinese rice farmers and

surveyed 100 Chinese rice farmers and

surveyed 100 Chinese rice farmers and found out that 23% of them suffer from

found out that 23% of them suffer from

found out that 23% of them suffer from either liver or kidney damage 23% and I

either liver or kidney damage 23% and I

either liver or kidney damage 23% and I thought that’s not cool because I love

thought that’s not cool because I love

thought that’s not cool because I love my liver my kidneys

my liver my kidneys

my liver my kidneys so I raise this question how can I

so I raise this question how can I

so I raise this question how can I control the pests on my field with just

control the pests on my field with just

control the pests on my field with just the minimum use of pesticides and I also

the minimum use of pesticides and I also

the minimum use of pesticides and I also thought whatever I find out may be

thought whatever I find out may be

thought whatever I find out may be useful to other farmers too now

be careful not to use too much nitrogen

be careful not to use too much nitrogen fertilizers because pests love nitrogen

fertilizers because pests love nitrogen

rich plants also we can plant our rice

rich plants also we can plant our rice at a greater distance so that pests have

hoppers are really tiny a fate like

hoppers are really tiny a fate like insects and they feed by sucking the

third party so um we can release ducks

third party so um we can release ducks into the rice field because ducks eat

into the rice field because ducks eat

into the rice field because ducks eat everything they eat all the insects and

everything they eat all the insects and

everything they eat all the insects and keep their numbers down when the rice is

keep their numbers down when the rice is

keep their numbers down when the rice is small we can introduce ducklings and the

this turns out to be actually a pretty

this turns out to be actually a pretty old strategy so I’ve said earlier that

old strategy so I’ve said earlier that

old strategy so I’ve said earlier that insect pests really like nitrogen rich

insect pests really like nitrogen rich

insect pests really like nitrogen rich plants and we have to be careful to

plants and we have to be careful to

plants and we have to be careful to control the nitrogen level not too high

control the nitrogen level not too high

control the nitrogen level not too high but what we can do is we pick a small

but what we can do is we pick a small

but what we can do is we pick a small portion of a rice paddy and just

portion of a rice paddy and just

portion of a rice paddy and just fertilize the beep out of it so here you

fertilize the beep out of it so here you

fertilize the beep out of it so here you can see that closer to me closer to us

can see that closer to me closer to us

can see that closer to me closer to us there’s a patch of rice that’s really

there’s a patch of rice that’s really

there’s a patch of rice that’s really really green and really tall and that’s

really green and really tall and that’s

really green and really tall and that’s my trapping plot here I’ve applied a lot

my trapping plot here I’ve applied a lot

my trapping plot here I’ve applied a lot of nitrogen fertilizer and this trapping

of nitrogen fertilizer and this trapping

of nitrogen fertilizer and this trapping plot is able to attract a lot of pests

plot is able to attract a lot of pests

plot is able to attract a lot of pests and this allow me to manage a small area

and this allow me to manage a small area

and this allow me to manage a small area instead of a huge one so if I were to

instead of a huge one so if I were to

instead of a huge one so if I were to combine this with using pesticides I’m

combine this with using pesticides I’m

combine this with using pesticides I’m only using a tiny portion of the

only using a tiny portion of the

only using a tiny portion of the pesticides and in this very early study

pesticides and in this very early study

pesticides and in this very early study I said that if we set up a trapping plot

I said that if we set up a trapping plot

I said that if we set up a trapping plot that’s only 5% of the

that’s only 5% of the

that’s only 5% of the area this area can attract up to 50% of

area this area can attract up to 50% of

area this area can attract up to 50% of the total pest egg mass and this is

the total pest egg mass and this is

the total pest egg mass and this is really cost-effective I can use 5% of

really cost-effective I can use 5% of

really cost-effective I can use 5% of pesticides to get rid of 50% of the pass

pesticides to get rid of 50% of the pass

pesticides to get rid of 50% of the pass right and no war is complete without the

so number 31 the beauties have we can

so number 31 the beauties have we can get these commercially available sex

get these commercially available sex

get these commercially available sex pheromone sticky traps and stall them in

pheromone sticky traps and stall them in

pheromone sticky traps and stall them in the rice field so there are two parts on

the rice field so there are two parts on

the rice field so there are two parts on this device on the top part there’s a

this device on the top part there’s a

this device on the top part there’s a chemical that mimics the sex pheromones

chemical that mimics the sex pheromones

chemical that mimics the sex pheromones of female stem boars and the male stem

of female stem boars and the male stem warriors are naturally attracted to it

warriors are naturally attracted to it

warriors are naturally attracted to it and then it gets stuck on a sticky trap

and then it gets stuck on a sticky trap

and then it gets stuck on a sticky trap it’s a really really simple idea and it

it’s a really really simple idea and it

it’s a really really simple idea and it can reduce stem or damage by 44 to 71

can reduce stem or damage by 44 to 71

can reduce stem or damage by 44 to 71 percent and if you guessed it yes you

percent and if you guessed it yes you

percent and if you guessed it yes you can use many of these stratagems in

can use many of these stratagems in

can use many of these stratagems in combination sort of like a combo move

that goes of the thirty-six stratagems

that goes of the thirty-six stratagems fleeing is passed

fleeing is passed

now why is retreating or fleeing the

now why is retreating or fleeing the past stratagem well it turns out

past stratagem well it turns out

past stratagem well it turns out if we plant rice on the same part of

if we plant rice on the same part of

if we plant rice on the same part of same plot year after year we really do

same plot year after year we really do

same plot year after year we really do get a buildup of rice loving pests and

get a buildup of rice loving pests and

get a buildup of rice loving pests and what we can do is we can break that

what we can do is we can break that

what we can do is we can break that cycle by skipping a year but we don’t

cycle by skipping a year but we don’t

cycle by skipping a year but we don’t just leave we just we plant something

just leave we just we plant something

just leave we just we plant something else that’s not rights related so we can

else that’s not rights related so we can

else that’s not rights related so we can rotate another crop in so this used to

rotate another crop in so this used to

rotate another crop in so this used to be a rice paddy last year and this year

be a rice paddy last year and this year

be a rice paddy last year and this year we’ve decided to turn it into a peanut

we’ve decided to turn it into a peanut

we’ve decided to turn it into a peanut plot and because a lot of the pests are

plot and because a lot of the pests are

plot and because a lot of the pests are rice certificate just eat rice if we

rice certificate just eat rice if we

rice certificate just eat rice if we introduce one cycle of something else

introduce one cycle of something else

introduce one cycle of something else the numbers can be greatly reduced in

the numbers can be greatly reduced in

the numbers can be greatly reduced in the next season

the next season

the next season this is especially effective for plant

this is especially effective for plant

this is especially effective for plant hoppers

hoppers

hoppers and stem bars so here we go those were

and stem bars so here we go those were

and stem bars so here we go those were the stratagems that I thought I would

the stratagems that I thought I would

the stratagems that I thought I would share with you but here’s a story I

share with you but here’s a story I

share with you but here’s a story I didn’t come up with any of those pest

didn’t come up with any of those pest

didn’t come up with any of those pest management strategies right but I did

management strategies right but I did

management strategies right but I did find that using the thirty-six

find that using the thirty-six

find that using the thirty-six stratagems

stratagems

stratagems as a communicational tool really

as a communicational tool really

as a communicational tool really effective and this was the story so

effective and this was the story so

effective and this was the story so about a couple months ago I was standing

about a couple months ago I was standing

about a couple months ago I was standing in my patty and I was trying to install

in my patty and I was trying to install

in my patty and I was trying to install my newly bought sex pheromone sticky

my newly bought sex pheromone sticky

my newly bought sex pheromone sticky chive when a villager walked by and he

chive when a villager walked by and he

chive when a villager walked by and he asked me what I was doing and I said

asked me what I was doing and I said

asked me what I was doing and I said look I’m trying to install my new sex

look I’m trying to install my new sex

look I’m trying to install my new sex pheromone sticky trap and he said six

pheromone sticky trap and he said six

pheromone sticky trap and he said six why and and I said oh so so it’s got

why and and I said oh so so it’s got

why and and I said oh so so it’s got chemicals and it no no it pretends to be

chemicals and it no no it pretends to be

female stampers and then the male’s will

female stampers and then the male’s will come and then they get stuck and he said

come and then they get stuck and he said

come and then they get stuck and he said oh you just told me that it’s a beauty

oh you just told me that it’s a beauty

oh you just told me that it’s a beauty job and I said oh right I should just

job and I said oh right I should just
