In agricultural production, pest control is one of the most important management tasks. The surface of the pest body has a thick stratum corneum, and it is difficult for the agent to penetrate into the pest through the skin to achieve the purpose of killing the pest, so in order to improve the effect of insecticidal treatment, it is usually added to the osmotic agent when spraying, also known as pesticide auxiliaries. Recently, another new type of pesticide additive, with strong permeability and expansion, better than the traditional silicone additive, mixed with pesticides, can significantly improve the efficacy. This additive is orange peel essential oil.
Introduction to orange peel essential oils
Orange peel essential oil is a kind of natural aromatic mixture extracted from fresh orange peel, orange peel, grapefruit peel, the main ingredient is d-limonene, linalool, citral, citronella oil and other substances, this substance can dissolve all kinds of stones, waxes, grease and other substances, especially can dissolve the wax layer on the surface of the pest and the phospholipid layer of the pathogen, has a strong permeability and expansion effect, in medicine, cleaning field, agriculture and other aspects have a wide range of applications, in the pest control, can increase the permeability and expansion of the agent, Significantly improve the effect of insecticidal treatment.
Main role
(1) Dissolving wax layer: orange peel essential oil can dissolve all kinds of wax, grease, phospholipids and other oil and fat substances, the surface of the pest body has a wax protective layer, orange peel essential oil can dissolve the wax layer on the surface of the pest, the lack of wax layer protection of insects, the rapid evaporation and loss of water in the body, resulting in rapid natural dehydration and death of insects.
(2) Dissolving the phospholipid layer: the main way for fungi to reproduce is conidia, conidia are the seeds of the fungus, the outermost layer of the conidia is a phospholipid layer, protecting the integrity of fungal cells, orange peel essential oil can dissolve the phospholipid layer, there is no phospholipid layer cell membrane protection of the pathogen spores, the cell fluid will be naturally lost, and finally the bacteria dry and die.
(3) Strong permeability and expansion: Orange peel essential oil is mixed with pesticides, which can make pesticides quickly penetrate into the pulp from the leaf surface, reach the leaf back, kill the bacteria and pests on the back of the leaf, improve the ability to resist rain washing, and significantly improve the efficacy and effectiveness of the agent.
(4) Insecticidal treatment: Orange peel essential oil has a very late liposuction performance, and also has a certain killing effect on a variety of pests and germs, and mixing with the agent can improve the anti-efficacy of the agent.
Main features
(1) Non-toxic and non-polluting: Orange peel essential oil is a plant essential oil extracted from natural fresh orange peel, orange peel and grapefruit peel, which has a natural aromatic odor and is a non-toxic and non-polluting natural substance that will not cause pollution to the environment.
(2) Good safety: Orange peel essential oil is safe for crops, even if it is used in the most sensitive period of crops such as flowering, young fruit, and puffing, it will not produce any harm. Because it originates from nature, it is safe and residue-free, and it is biosafe to natural enemies such as bees, red-eyed bees, and Chilean small plant mites.
(3) Good quick-acting: in the test room, spray whitefed with orange peel essential oil, the wings of the whitefly can be dissolved in 1 minute, and the entire whitefly can be dissolved in 1 day, and the dissolution rate is amazing.
(4) Reduce drug resistance: Orange peel essential oil can quickly dissolve the waxy layer on the surface of the pest, which greatly reduces the resistance of the pest, and is the most effective method for controlling resistant diseases and insect pests.
Suitable for crops
Orange peel essential oil is mainly used as a pesticide auxiliary, good crop safety, will not produce any harm, can be widely used wheat, corn, cotton, peanuts, soybeans, tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, cucumbers, watermelon, apples, pear trees, citrus, lychees, mangoes and other almost all crops, can also be used for flowers, Chinese herbal medicine, edible fungi and so on.
How to use
(1) Herbicide use: In the control of wheat field broad-leaved weeds, 8% difluorozospyrone suspension per acre 10 to 15 ml + orange peel essential oil 10 to 20 ml, mixed with 30 kg of water even spray, can quickly kill field weeds, weeds do not rebound.
(2) Use of fungicides: When controlling cucumber downy mildew, tomato late blight, pepper blight and other diseases, 68.75% flupiramide downy mildew suspension agent 20 to 30 ml + orange peel essential oil 20 to 30 ml can be used to quickly control the spread of the disease.
(3) Insecticide use: In the early stage of the occurrence of insect pests such as corn borer, rice dimorph borer, rice longitudinal curl leaf borer, etc., use 18% methyl vitamin salt indigodium wettable powder per mu 15 to 25 ml + orange peel essential oil 20 to 30 ml, and spray evenly after 30 to 40 kg of water, which can quickly kill and kill pests.
