Abalawuli bokukhula kwezityalo sisixhobo esibalulekileyo kubavelisi bekotoni eGeorgia

IBhunga leCotton laseGeorgia kunye neqela leYunivesithi yaseGeorgia Cotton Extension bakhumbuza abalimi ngokubaluleka kokusebenzisa abalawuli bokukhula kwezityalo (ii-PGR). Isityalo secotton sikarhulumente sizuze kwimvula yakutshanje, ekhuthaze ukukhula kwezityalo. “Oku kuthetha ukuba lixesha lokuqwalasela ukusebenzisa i-PGR,” utshilo ingcali yezolimo ye-UGA Cotton Extension Camp Hand.
“Abalawuli bokukhula kwezityalo babaluleke kakhulu ngoku, ingakumbi kwizityalo ezikhula kwindawo eyomileyo kuba sinemvula encinci,” utshilo uHand. “Injongo ephambili yePix kukugcina isityalo sifutshane. Umqhaphu sisityalo esihlala ixesha elide, kwaye ukuba awukwenzi nto, uya kukhula ufikelele kubude obufunekayo. Oku kunokukhokelela kwezinye iingxaki ezifana nezifo, ukuhlala, kunye nesivuno. njl. Sifuna abalawuli bokukhula kwezityalo ukuze bazigcine kumanqanaba anokuvunwa. Oku kuthetha ukuba kuchaphazela ukuphakama kwezityalo, kodwa kukwachaphazela nokuvuthwa kwazo.”
IGeorgia ibiyomile kakhulu ixesha elide lasehlotyeni, nto leyo ebangele ukuba isivuno somqhaphu sime. Kodwa imeko itshintshile kwiiveki zakutshanje njengoko imvula isanda. “Iyakhuthaza nakubavelisi,” utshilo uHand.
“Kubonakala ngathi imvula ina kuzo zonke iindlela. Wonke umntu oyifunayo uyayifumana,” utshilo uHand. “Kwanezinye zezinto esizityalileyo eTifton zatyalwa ngoMeyi 1, nge-30 ka-Epreli, kwaye azizange zibukeke zintle. Kodwa ngenxa yemvula ebina kwiiveki ezimbalwa ezidlulileyo, imvula iyeke kule veki. Ndiza kutshiza iPix ngaphezulu.
"Kubonakala ngathi imeko iyatshintsha. Uninzi lwezityalo zethu ziyadubula. Ndicinga ukuba i-USDA isixelela ukuba malunga nekota yesityalo iyadubula. Siqala ukufumana iziqhamo kwezinye zezityalo ezityalwe kwangethuba kwaye imeko iyonke ibonakala ngathi iyaphucuka."
