This bottle of pesticide, farmers dare to drink it. Do you dare to drink it?

Hohoho!

Before writing this article, I originally wanted to ask you all - "Have you ever drunk pesticide?"

But then I thought about it a bit more, and decided it would be better not to ask that way. If I got beaten to death, that wouldn't be good.

Nowadays, whether city people or rural people, everyone knows there is a pesticide called "paraquat" - drink it and you die.

So everyone is extremely afraid of this kind of pesticide.

And so, pesticide has almost become another name for poison.

Although most pesticides today are toxic.

But not all milk powder is called Sanlu, and not all pesticides are called paraquat.

Someone invented a kind of pesticide that is not only non-toxic - the farmer who invented it even dares to drink it.

It is called chitosan non-toxic pesticide.

I. Chitosan non-toxic pesticide

In previous news reports, a retired teacher in Liaocheng invented a non-toxic pesticide. The main ingredient she used was chitosan.

Why is this pesticide said to be non-toxic?

Because chitosan is actually a product of chitin. It is not only non-toxic, but also widely used in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and other fields. It is said to help control diseases such as high blood pressure.

The insecticidal principle of chitosan is to induce plants to produce a defense response and improve the plant's own resistance.

It itself is non-toxic.

II. Insecticidal effect

This pesticide itself is non-toxic.

But pesticides are used to kill insects or bacteria. So how effective is this pesticide at killing insects or bacteria?

To be honest, the insecticidal and bactericidal effects of this pesticide are definitely not as strong as traditional chemical pesticides.

For pests and diseases on vegetables and fruit trees, its effect can only be described as average.

This is also a major reason why it still cannot be promoted to this day.

III. About non-toxic pesticides

Pesticides that truly carry not even a trace of toxicity are not many nowadays.

It must be said that non-toxic pesticides are a development trend, but what about it? For farmers, first, they are used to previous pesticides and it is not so easy for them to accept non-toxic pesticides; second, non-toxic pesticides are indeed not as easy to use as traditional pesticides.

In an era when everyone likes to eat pollution-free produce but cannot get pollution-free produce, a farmer launching a non-toxic pesticide is merely a concept and a development idea.

There is still a long way to go before truly non-toxic pesticides are developed and promoted to the market.

Summary: When poor, one thinks of change; with change, one finds a way; with a way, one succeeds. In this era when pesticide pollution is becoming more and more common, farmers also feel great pressure. The product of non-toxic pesticides is still not good enough, but this idea is at least worth encouraging!

[PS: A reminder to everyone, most pesticides today are toxic, so never touch them casually.]
