Jeollanam-do announced that it will designate July and August as the 'concentrated collection period for giant applesnails' and conduct intensive collection activities in cities and counties to prevent crop damage from these applesnails used as an eco-friendly herbicide in rice farming. While giant applesnails are effective in weed control for eco-friendly rice cultivation, they can flow into rivers and agricultural waterways if not collected, and overwinter to cause damage by eating young rice plants in the following year. Accordingly, Jeollanam-do plans to intensively collect giant applesnails and their eggs around agricultural lands and irrigation channels during the two months as part of its comprehensive strategy to reduce ecological outflow and overwintering population.
