Abstract
Two times experiments of dosage reduction of methyl bromide(MB) and covering virtually impermeable film(VIF) were carried out in Qingzhou city(Shandong province,China) from 2001 to 2003 year.The results indicated that there were no significant difference on controlling the root-knot nematode(Meloidogyne spp.),tomato growth and yield between using 37.5 g/m~2 methyl bromide and VIF and 50 g/m~2 methyl bromide and PE.The VIF could significantly reduce the emission of methyl bromide,so the dosage of methyl bromide could be reduced more than 25% and then its damage to ozone layer also was reduced.
