Abstract

Outbreaks of the bagworm Metisa plana often occur in Malaysian oil palm plantations. Given the complexities of the M. plana lifecycle, the high cost of lower-toxicity chemical pesticides, and the labour shortage, the application of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), also known as drones, was used, as it is more practical at a commercial scale. In July 2022, FGVPM Besout 6 and Besout 7, with a total planting area of 2 110.20 and 2 737.30 ha, respectively, experienced massive M. plana infestations with a total outbreak area of 622.50 ha (29.50%) and 650.00 ha (23.75%), respectively. Within five days, drones equipped with fan nozzles for spraying flubendiamide insecticide at a rate of 36 L per hectare were able to combat the infestation. Water-sensitive paper was set up to ensure the droplet distribution met the standard operating procedure requirement. ImageJ analysis confirmed the sprayed coverage area was excellent, especially on the upper frond. At 30 days after spraying (DAS), the number of live M. plana individuals per frond dropped to zero compared to the non-treated area, which counted 82.50 M. plana. The effectiveness of spraying is supported by its high productivity as compared to the conventional approach of trunk injection. The results demonstrated that with the right dosage of pesticides, drone spraying with proper specification is more feasible, affordable, saves time, and has been proven to be efficient for M. plana treatment on a commercial scale. Keywords: Unmanned aerial vehicle, drone, oil palm, precision agriculture, bagworm Metisa plana.
无人机喷药控制蛴螬的效果
在马来西亚的油棕种植园中,经常发生白蛉的爆发。考虑到平面m.s plana生命周期的复杂性,低毒性化学农药的高成本以及劳动力短缺,使用无人驾驶飞行器(uav),也称为无人机,因为它在商业规模上更实用。2022年7月,FGVPM Besout 6和Besout 7的总种植面积分别为2 110.20和2 737.30 ha,发生了大规模的plana侵染,总爆发面积分别为622.50 ha(29.50%)和650.00 ha(23.75%)。在五天内,配备扇形喷嘴的无人机以每公顷36升的速度喷洒氟虫胺杀虫剂,就能够消灭虫害。设置了水敏纸,确保液滴分布符合标准操作规程要求。ImageJ分析证实喷涂覆盖区域非常好,特别是在上正面。在喷洒后30天,与未处理地区的82.50只相比,每叶扁平扁虫的活个体数降至零。与传统的树干注射方法相比,喷雾的有效性得到了其高生产率的支持。结果表明,在农药用量合适的情况下,适当规格的无人机喷洒更加可行、经济实惠、节省时间,在商业规模上已被证明是有效的。关键词:无人机,无人机,油棕,精准农业,沙蚕
