A good time to manage field pests

After the autumn harvest, many pests begin their overwintering phase. To effectively manage these pests and reduce their impact in the following growing season, several key measures are implemented. Field sanitation is an essential step in pest control. Many pests hide in plant residues such as dead branches, fallen leaves, and fruit remnants. By burning, collecting, or burying these materials during the fall and winter, farmers can significantly reduce the number of pests that survive the cold months, helping to prevent future infestations. Winter plowing and irrigation are also effective strategies. Deep plowing disrupts the habitat of soil-dwelling pests, exposing them to freezing temperatures or natural predators. Winter irrigation helps to loosen the soil while also killing some overwintering insects through frost, thereby reducing their population before spring. Weed removal is another critical practice. After the crops are harvested, some pests move to nearby weeds to survive the winter. These weeds become breeding grounds for pests in early spring. Removing weeds from fields and applying pesticides during the autumn and winter months can help break this cycle and limit pest populations. Lastly, managing host plants plays a crucial role. Pests like corn borers often remain inside the stems or cobs of harvested crops. By using these plant parts as fuel, animal feed, or fertilizer in the fall or early spring, farmers can effectively eliminate the overwintering sites of pests, reducing their chances of reappearing in the next season. These integrated approaches not only help control pests but also contribute to healthier crops and more sustainable farming practices.

Spiral Pipe Screw Conveyor

Install adjustment:

1.The screw conveyor can not be installed until the dust stuck during transportation or unloading

is cleaned.

2.Material groove center line and screw shaft should have an appropriate coaxial degree.


3.The drive device and the screw shaft should have a right coaxial degree.


4.The static equilibrium test should be carried out after the screw is installed.


5`After the conveyor installed, check whether there is any debris in the machine and if the lubrication is enough.


6.During the no-load test, the bearing should be oil-tight, and the bearing temperature should not be higher than 20℃. During the load test,the temperature of bearing should not exceed 30℃.


Attentions

(1) Lubricate the bearings, gears, chains and other transmission parts regularly.

(2)When the box-to-send machine stopped, check the abrasion of the spiral blade and repair and weld it when it wears seriously.

(3)The conveying amount can not be overloaded, otherwise the material will not be discharged, which may cause the screw shaft bending and box expansion.

(4) In the operation of the conveyor, if the noise is harsh, you should open the lid to check it and troubleshoot.
