Promoting Inland Waterway Transport in the People's Republic of China Promoting inland Waterway transport in the People’s republic of china The People’s Republic of China (PRC) has the world’s longest inland waterway system. Despite the system’s potential and the government’s policies encouraging its development, inland waterway transport (IWT) has not been developed as much as other transport modes. This publication examines the constraints in developing IWT based on a study in the PRC’s Hunan province. Six major challenges threatening the viability of IWT and its integration into the whole logistics chain have been identified. The analyses and case study lead to recommendations that are relevant not just to the PRC but also to other developing countries. about the asian development bank ADB’s vision is an Asia and Pacific region free of poverty. Its mission is to help its developing member countries reduce poverty and improve the quality of life of their people. Despite the region’s many successes, it remains home to half of the world’s extreme poor. ADB is committed to reducing poverty through inclusive economic growth, environmentally sustainable growth, and regional integration. Based in Manila, ADB is owned by 67 members, including 48 from the region. Its main instruments for helping its developing member countries are policy dialogue, loans, equity investments, guarantees, grants, and technical assistance.

This is the first inland waterway transport project supported by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) in the People’s Republic of China (PRC), through a loan of $150 million, in line with ADB’s Sustainable Transport Initiatives. The project aims to improve the transport conditions of Xiangjiang, the largest river in the PRC’s Hunan province, and promote the inland waterway transport (IWT) as a whole in Hunan. It includes both infrastructure provision and policy study. IWT is a low-cost, low-pollution, and low-carbon mass transport mode and has good potential to reduce logistics costs, fuel consumption, air emission, traffic congestion, noise, and road accidents. The PRC has the world’s largest IWT system in terms of length and freight volume. However, IWT has been less developed than highways and railways due to a combination of factors such as infrastructure deficiencies, investment, and institutional weaknesses including coordination challenges across the organizations at the local, regional, and national levels. This publication presents an overview of the PRC’s IWT sector, provides insights into constraints in developing IWT based on a study on Hunan province, introduces international good practice in encouraging IWT development and IWT management, and makes recommendations that will be useful to the PRC as well as other developing countries. Ayumi Konishi Director General East Asia Department viii Acknowledgments This publication was developed based on the study report prepared by the consortium of UNICONSULT, Hamburg Port Training Institute, and Wang Jing & Co., the consultant engaged under the Loan 2962-PRC Hunan Xiangjiang Inland Waterway Transport Project.

  • The Effectiveness of Field Pest Management and Culling at Harvest for Risk Mitigation of Two Fruit Flies Affecting Citrus in China
    The effectiveness of field pest management and culling at harvest for risk mitigation of two fruit flies affecting citrus in China Yulu Xia1, Jiayao He2, Hui Liu3, Fulian Xiao3, Linzuo Xiao5, Xingli Ma1, Guocai Lu2, Zhushan Lin5, Xubin Pan2,*, and Gecheng Ouyang4,* Abstract The oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel) (Diptera: Tephrtitidae), and the Chinese citrus fly, Bactrocera minax (Enderlein) (Diptera: Tephri- tidae), are 2 destructive citrus fruit pests in China. A field study was conducted during Sep to Oct of 2018 in Dongkou County of Hunan Province to assess (1) fruit infestations at the time of harvest under 2 management levels, and (2) the efficacy of culling at harvest (i.e., visual inspection and removal of the infested fruits) on reducing the number of infested fruits. A total of 26,400 fruits of Satsuma mandarins, Citrus unshiu (Swingle) Marcov (Rutaceae), were harvested from 2 groves with 1 representing highly managed groves, and the other representing commonly managed groves (low management). Fruit culling was conducted immediately to separate fruits into 5 groups: (1) B. minax infested fruits, (2) B. dorsalis infested fruits, (3) B. minax + B. dorsalis infested fruits, (4) suspected fruit fly infested fruits, and (5) fruit fly free fruits. Fruit dissection was conducted 4 wk later to determine the actual number of the infested fruits, and also to act as a check on the accuracy of visual inspection on the reduction of the number of infested fruits. The highly managed grove had 0.02% infested fruits vs. 2.19% in the low managed grove, a 99.09% reduction in infestation rate.
