First, dichlorvos are used in farms? Hello? Sea cucumber Speaking of sea cucumber, we all know that it is not only a highly nutritious tonic, but also a valuable medicinal material. It is beneficial to the essence, tonifying the kidney, delaying aging, preventing arteriosclerosis and so on, and it is one of the preferred health products for many people.
Sea cucumber is both familiar and unfamiliar to most people. What is familiar is that it has high nutrition and is a good health product. What is unfamiliar is its breeding process. On October 20 19 10, it was the cultivation period of sea cucumber seedlings. On March 315, the reporter went to Jimo sea cucumber farm in Shandong and found that hundreds of glass bottles of dichlorvos were piled up beside the pond.
Dichlorvos is a highly toxic pesticide. It was used a little when pesticide was applied to crops a long time ago. Now it is no longer advocated to use dichlorvos to kill insects, and it is also specially stipulated what can be used and what can't be used, among which sea cucumber can't be used. The use of dichlorvos by farmers has seriously violated the Pesticide Management Regulations.
Sea cucumber farmers frankly use dichlorvos to remove other organisms that are not conducive to the growth of sea cucumbers, that is to say, there can only be sea cucumbers in this pond, and there can be no other marine organisms such as fish, shrimp and crabs.
Imagine that after dichlorvos were sprinkled in a sea, all the small fish and shrimps in the sea died, so wouldn't the sea cucumber be affected? The bodies of dead small fish and shrimps rot and stink, and the sea water is indirectly deteriorated. Even if the sea cucumber has strong anti-toxicity, is it safe to grow up drinking the seawater mixed with dichlorvos? Is sea cucumber safe to eat?
In Hengshengyuan Sea Cucumber Base, the reporter also learned that there is no standard for the amount of dichlorvos they use. Some use 9 boxes, while others use 20 boxes. In the end, there is no number of farmers who use it. They all estimate it. It is decided by the number of creatures in the pond and the size of the pond. Killing all the creatures in the pond is their ultimate goal.
What is even worse is that the water in the pond will eventually flow back to the sea without any treatment. Imagine that the seawater with dichlorvos will flow back to the sea. What are the consequences? Other creatures in the sea also suffer indirectly. The sea is deteriorating. What are the consequences if people go swimming? What are the consequences of drinking dichlorvos in the sea by mistake?
We buy sea cucumbers for health, not for looking for them? Short-sighted? , not to? Begging for death? . Putting dichlorvos in seawater to raise sea cucumbers is not for people's health at all, but indirectly kills people and harms the ocean.
Second, use the veterinary drug oxytetracycline powder to prevent diseases and throw dichlorvos. The reporter also found a large number of veterinary drug oxytetracycline powder in the sea cucumber breeding base in the greenhouse. We all know that oxytetracycline is a veterinary drug, and what we ordinary people see is decomposed oxytetracycline, which is only suitable for mammals. The concentration of oxytetracycline powder is high, the content is 98%, and the toxicity is beyond our imagination.
In order to ensure the correct use and safety of veterinary drugs, it is clearly stipulated in the Regulations on the Administration of Veterinary Drugs that raw materials of veterinary drugs cannot be sold to individuals and enterprises outside the veterinary drug industry. Farmers are also very familiar with this point. They dare not use it publicly, but use it secretly.
When sea cucumber farmers change water in greenhouses, they use a lot of oxytetracycline powder to prevent diseases. Antibiotics that are obviously used in animals are used in raising sea cucumbers, and the potential safety hazards are beyond our imagination.
Third, use maltodextrin to brew sea cucumbers. The sea cucumbers we saw in the market are all dry. After buying them, the relevant staff will help us or ourselves to wake them up before we can eat them. In the aquaculture standard "dry sea cucumber", it is clearly stipulated that only salt is allowed to be used in food additives processed in dry sea cucumber, and no other additives can be used.
The reporter found that the sea cucumber was marinated with maltodextrin in Zikou Village, Penglai Bay, which looked very sticky and smelled sweet and fishy. Farmers say that sea cucumbers need to be soaked in maltodextrin for 3 days, and then washed and dried.
Why use maltodextrin? Originally, in order to increase the yield, if only edible salt was used for brewing, it would take about 30 kg of sea cucumber to dry out 1 kg of dry sea cucumber. If maltodextrin is used, that is, about 20 kg of sea cucumber can get 1 kg of dry sea cucumber. In this way, you can earn 10 Jin of sea cucumber inside and outside, and the profit space can be imagined.
Fourth, the sea cucumber in the north is cultivated in the south, and the water and soil purchased in the south not only raises one person, but also raises one creature. The temperature in the north is relatively low and unstable, and the cycle of cultivating sea cucumbers is particularly long, which usually takes about 3 years; The temperature in the south is higher than that in the north. If it is stable, the sea cucumber cycle will be shortened, which usually takes 3 to 5 months to complete.
According to the characteristics of this environment, after the sea cucumber seedlings are cultivated in the north, some farmers in the south will buy the seedlings in the north, and then sell them in the north after they are raised. In this way, the problem of time is shortened. Time is money. It was raised for three years, but now it will bear fruit in three to five months. Why not?
The period of sea cucumber cultured in the north is long, the meat quality is relatively tight, and the price is naturally high; The breeding cycle in the south is relatively short, the meat quality is not as good as that in the north, and the price will be low.
What makes people hate is that many merchants use people's ignorance of sea cucumbers to call southern sea cucumbers northern sea cucumbers to deceive consumers. Let consumers buy southern sea cucumbers at the price of northern sea cucumbers.
For the sake of money, people can use dichlorvos, antibiotics, maltodextrin and swindling packages regardless of the consequences. These behaviors refresh people's understanding of sea cucumber and human nature.
Money must be earned, and don't do something illegal and against your conscience in order to earn money. It's obviously a health care product, but now it's being fed with drugs? Health products? .
