To promote the implementation of the rural revitalization strategy and enhance the technical skills of farmers, a special training session on "The Application of Microbial Agents for Salt Tolerance and Disease Prevention in Facility Agriculture Crops" was successfully held on July 10 at the greenhouse planting base in Ayimake Village, Jiahanbage Township.

This training was guided by the Xinjiang Branch of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and jointly organized by the Moyu County Science and Technology Association, the County Agricultural Technology Promotion Center, the Xinjiang Institute of Ecology and Geography of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the Silk Road Innovation Development Institute. Xinjiang agricultural experts Bao Huifang, Gao Yan, and Li Li led the session, attracting over 100 greenhouse growers who actively participated, and the response on-site was enthusiastic.

The training was conducted in a format combining "theoretical explanation + on-site demonstration + interactive experience." Bao Huifang first introduced the basic concept of microbial agents, their mechanisms of action, and their application value in greenhouse crops. Using real-world cases, she thoroughly analyzed the significant effects of microbial agents on crop disease resistance and yield increase, and many growers expressed that they "had opened up new ideas." In the greenhouse, Li Li demonstrated various application methods such as soil treatment, foliar spraying, and root irrigation, emphasizing key operational points: "Dilution ratios must be accurate, spraying should avoid high-temperature periods, and soil should be covered promptly after root irrigation to maintain moisture..." Growers gathered around the demonstration area, carefully observing and recording the key steps.

Grower Buhaitiqi said: "The experts explained everything clearly, and the demonstration was easy to understand. Next year, I plan to try using microbial agents on my tomato field!"

A Q&A session was also held, where experts answered detailed questions from growers, such as "Can microbial agents be mixed with fertilizers?" and "Which microbial agents are suitable for different crops?"

The training received strong support from the Moyu County Science and Technology Association and the local agricultural departments, who had assigned technical personnel in advance to assist with translation and coordination. The Xinjiang Microbiology Society, as a project cooperation partner, also simultaneously carried out the "100 Meetings for 10,000 People - Science Summer" campaign, providing scientific knowledge and technology to the greenhouse growers in Moyu County.

Li Li, an expert from the Xinjiang Institute of Ecology and Geography of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, said: "The promotion of salt-tolerant and disease-resistant microbial agents is expected to significantly improve the soil quality of the facility agriculture in Ayimake Village. Crop yields and quality will also improve substantially, and farmers' incomes will steadily increase. Next, we plan to expand the application of microbial agents to the entire Ayimake Village to improve soil quality, crop yields, and farmers' income."

This training not only provided practical technical guidance for the greenhouse growers in Ayimake Village but also sparked their enthusiasm for adopting new technologies. In the future, Ayimake Village will continue to deepen its cooperation with agricultural research institutions, promoting the implementation of scientific planting techniques, injecting new momentum into rural revitalization.
