The invention relates to the technical field of agricultural and
forestry biological prevention and control, in particular to a
trichogramma gradient release method giving consideration to
diffusion and retention, and solves the problems of uneven release, short
retention time, low parasitic efficiency and the like of existing
trichogramma. The method comprises the following steps: preparing three degradable gradient slow-release carriers with different slow-release speeds, dividing a
control area into a center area, a transition area and a
peripheral area, configuring a composite auxiliary retention
system containing pest sex pheromones and a micro-
humidity regulation and control module, accurately matching the carriers with the areas, releasing the carriers in 2-3 stages in the egg stage of pests according to the release amount of 5: 3: 2, and adopting an unmanned aerial vehicle to assist in releasing, the
humidity and the attractant are continuously regulated and controlled after release. According to the method, ordered gradient
diffusion of the
trichogramma is achieved, the
residence time of the trichogramma in a target area is prolonged to 5-7 days, the worm egg
parasitism rate is greatly increased, and the carrier is degradable, free of residues, easy and convenient to operate, wide in applicability and suitable for green prevention and control of lepidoptera pests of various crops.
