Many kinds of banned highly toxic pesticides are still popular

According to recent information from various places, although the Ministry of Agriculture and other five departments have jointly announced some prohibitions on the use of highly toxic pesticides, some highly toxic pesticides that have long been banned from use are still in use, and some are even common.

It is understood that although the state has banned the use of pesticides such as pesticides, pesticides, pesticides, etc. on vegetables and fruit trees and other crops, there are many advocates of these highly toxic pesticides in some sugarcane and vegetable production areas.

According to the "Heilongjiang Daily" report, although the Ministry of Agriculture announced in the No. 199 Notice, it is strictly forbidden to use pesticides such as ***, *** and other highly toxic pesticides on vegetables and fruit trees. However, due to the influence of traditional planting habits and driven by economic interests, the illegal sales and use of these highly toxic pesticides still exist. According to a recent report in the Southern Rural News, in the local sugar cane production areas, high-toxic pesticides such as ***, ****, and *** can often be seen; in vegetable production areas, there are still some vegetable farmers banned from use. Highly toxic pesticides prevent and control underground pests. A local dealer said that although he also tried to promote low-toxic pesticide products such as chlorpyrifos, avermectin, butyl ketone, etc., it was difficult to promote because farmers liked “stink” (***, methyl Isoprenate and other odors are heavy. They often think that low-toxic pesticides are not ideal and their prices are high.

A person in charge of the marketing department of an agricultural material enterprise in Hunan said that as long as there is demand in the market, someone will dare to take risks to produce. Some unknown companies and underground workshops will mass produce banned pesticides and cash operations. In this way, it is difficult to trace back to the source when farmers use it.
