Abstract: To evaluate the result of the prevention and control of major maize diseases and pests, and objectively reflect the effectiveness and contribution rate of disease and pest control, in 2022, the National Agri-Tech Extension and Service Center organized the plant protection system of Hebei, Jiling, Henan and Yunnan to uniformly setting strict prevention and control areas, unified prevention and control areas, farmers' self-defense areas and non-control areas, using the method of multi-point test sampling. After scientific evaluation, the contribution rate of plant protection on national maize pests and diseases (excluding weeds and rodents) in 2022 was 18.74%. Statistical analysis shows that under strict prevention and control, the contribution rate of plant protection is 8.44% higher than that of farmers' self-prevention; under the condition of unified prevention and control, the contribution rate of plant protection is also 4.26% higher than that of farmers' self-prevention. The plant protection contribution still has great potential.
