ProjectFactsheetIntegrated Detection and Management of the Southern Rice Black-Streaked Dwarf Virus (Srbsdv) in Guizhou Province - TCP/CPR/3603 2020
Also available in:
No results found.In recent years, a new disease has been observed on ricein regions of Guangdong Province and Hainan Province,in southern China. The virus, known as the southern riceblack-streaked dwarf virus (SRBSDV), is transmitted to riceseedlings mainly by the white-backed planthopper,Sogatella furcifera (Hemiptera: Delphacidae), although itcan also be transmitted by the small brown planthopper(Laodelphax striatellus Fallen). Since 2010, severerepeated outbreaks of SRBSDV have been reported in Liboand Tianzhu County of Guizhou Province. The disease hascaused severe crop damage in around 5 000 ha annually,leading to unprecedented income loss for farmers. If thevirus is not managed, it is likely to spread to otherrice-growing areas in the southern, south-eastern andsouth-west mountainous areas of Guizhou. Local farmers’use of non-target chemical pesticides to manageoutbreaks increases the resistance of rice planthoppersto the pesticides, leading to frequent outbreaks of thedisease and forcing many farmers to abandon ricecultivation. The long-term effective management ofSRBSDV disease and its vector, the rice planthopper, inLibo and Tianzhu is thus a top priority, not only to protectthe livelihoods of poor ethnic minority farmers but alsoto safeguard ecology and biodiversity in the area. -

Also available in:
No results found.El Diagnóstico del Sector Rural y Pesquero tiene como objetivo identificar la problemática actual del sector agropecuario y pesquero, las características de la población afectada por estos problemas y determinar la pertinencia de las intervenciones de política pública sectorial con relación a la problemática actual identificada. La elaboración del diagnóstico responde a una de las recomendaciones emitidas en las evaluaciones externas de diseño realizadas a los Programas de la SAGARPA en 20081, l a cual establecía contar con un diagnóstico que identificara y definiera la problemática que enfrenta el sector agropecuario y pesquero de México. El diagnóstico está dirigido a los tomadores de decisiones, ya que su información permite sustentar el diseño de políticas públicas relacionadas con el sector agropecuario y pesquero. Sin embargo, la información y análisis que se presenta es también de utilidad para una audiencia más amplia. Es en este contexto que el diagnóstico ha sido elaborado por el proyecto de Evaluación y Análisis de Políticas para el Campo (UTF/MEX/089/MEX) en el marco de la cooperación técnica entre la Organización de las Naciones Unidas para la Alimentación y la Agricultura (FAO) y la Secretaría de Agricultura, Ganadería, Desarrollo Rural, Pesca y Alimentación (SAGARPA).
