(Haenam = Yonhap News) Reporter Jo Geon-yeong = On the 21st, Haenam County in Jeonnam announced that due to the 'autumn rainy season,' diseases such as wilt and root rot have occurred in cabbage cultivation areas like Masan-myeon, prompting emergency pesticide support.

In Haenam, the nation's largest cabbage production area, it is estimated that diseases have occurred in 150 hectares out of the total cultivation area of 5,440 hectares since September, when it is the formal cultivation period, due to frequent rain.

With the approach of the kimchi-making season, there are concerns about a decrease in production and a decline in quality.

The county secured 200 million won in emergency control funds, including national funds, and distributed pesticides to affected farms.

The county is operating an on-site technical guidance team to maintain a rapid response system centered on the field, including guidance on the safe use of pesticides and post-growth management.

Since early control is most important for cabbage wilt, it is necessary to strengthen inspections and immediately remove plants that are initially diseased.

When pests and diseases occur, registered pesticides must be sprayed promptly to prevent the spread of damage, Haenam County urged.
