怀卡托农场的入侵性天鹅绒叶的发现为农业部门敲响了 “警钟”

在怀卡托地区的两个农场发现了这种天鹅绒叶植物,是一种高侵入性大麻。这种大麻起源于中国和印度,可以长到2.5米高,叶子很大,呈心形。它一直是新西兰农作物的问题,因为它会迅速吸收水分和养分,从而损害作物的产量。

这种成熟的天鹅绒叶植物可以产生多达15,000种种子,这些种子可以在土壤中存活约50年。这些最新发现是自2019年上次疫情以来该地区首次发现的新发现。

怀卡托地区委员会生物安全害虫植物小组负责人达里昂·恩布林说,这些新的疫情为农业部门敲响了警钟。他说,尽管自2011年该地区首次发现大麻以来一直在努力控制这种大麻,但看到这些新的疫情令人失望。

2016年的最后一次全国性疫情是由进口饲料甜菜引起的。但是,大麻也可以通过收获机械和受感染的饲料传播。该团队现在正专注于追踪机械和作物流动,以管理进一步传播的风险。

大多数出没的房产位于怀卡托北部、马塔玛塔-皮亚科和怀卡托南部。工作人员正在与土地所有者合作制定农场管理计划,因为从技术上讲,土地所有者对消灭害虫负责。

怀卡托联邦农民耕地主席唐纳德·斯托比说,这种大麻具有很强的侵入性,可能很难找到。他说,它可以迅速扩散,占领田地并抑制其他植物。如果在田里发现大麻,则应将该田地隔离数年,不得再次用于种植农作物。

建议农民和种植者保持警惕,保持机器清洁,以防止大麻扩散。velvetleaf可以向耕地研究基金会和初级产业部报告。
