传统生态治虫技术的再思考——以养鸭治蝗技术为例

Rethinking of traditional ecological pest control technique:focusing on the technology of "duck-raised-to-control-locust"

以农为本的中国自农业发生以来,虫害问题是最大的障碍之一,数千年来劳动人民与虫害斗争,积累了丰富而实用的除虫技术。时至今日,除虫技术已发展到相当高效、纯熟的地步,大规模化学药剂的使用将虫害的影响降至最低,可人类却因此陷入生态环境的恶性循环中,人类的健康受到严重威胁。

The technology of ＂duck-raised-to-controll-locust＂ is one of the legacies of agricultural technology,which is valuable to be inherited and developed. Since the technology was invented in Ming Dynasty,it had a more limited extension coverage compared to other traditional locust-controlled techniques,which mainly adopted by the the people in south of Yangtze River.Analysis of the reasons including the food consumption of the ducks,Villagers＇storage capacity and storage environment of the ducks,the time and place restrictions of stocking ducks.Now the essence of traditional techniques should be absorbed and improved through government policy and funding support to form a duck-raising industry chain,the development of ＂Duck Rice＂ ecological agricultural technologies,carrying out economic locust control project.Thus the traditional technologies could produce huge economic and ecological benefits.
