NANCHANG - Long Huahong, a Chinese cucumber grower in the Philippines, had been plagued by severe pest problems in his fields until he came across an online video about farming techniques.
The video was made by a group of agricultural experts led by 37-year-old Fu Yong. They have uploaded hundreds of instructional videos on various social media platforms since 2016.
Long immediately contacted Fu's team and sent them pictures of his infected cucumbers. Before long, Fu's team identified the pest problem and instructed him to use specific pesticides.
