Feng Yanling, Voice of the Two Sessions: Strengthening the supervision of pesticide use and the treatment of pesticide packaging waste

"I usually go to the countryside, and I see pesticide bottles that are randomly discarded in the fields.
They can cause non-point source pollution to the soil and water sources, and most of them are sold as waste by the old scavengers.
If they are reprocessed into plastic products, it will be harmful to human health.
It has a great impact
.
" Feng Yanling, a senior agronomist at the Modern Agricultural Development Service Center of Fuxin Mongolian Autonomous County and a deputy to the National People's Congress, told reporters that this year she put forward suggestions on strengthening pesticide use supervision and pesticide packaging waste disposal
.
Representative Feng Yanling
.
Liaoning Daily reporter Xu Danwei photo Feng Yanling introduced that pesticides are commonly used agricultural production materials, and the scientific use of pesticides has played an important role in ensuring food production safety, promoting agricultural development and increasing farmers' income
.
"According to statistics, calculated according to the current pesticide utilization rate, the invalid pesticides remaining in the soil and water bodies each year will have a certain impact on the environment
.
In addition, the pesticide packaging waste recycling system has not been fully established and is working, and most of the pesticide packaging waste It has not been treated in a harmless manner, causing certain pollution to the production and living environment in rural areas
.
" Her research found that the overall level of scientific use of medicines is not high, resulting in a large amount of pesticides used
.
"In the early stage of the disease, no medicine is used, no insects are used, and the concentration and dosage of the medicine are increased at will when the disease and insect pests are serious, resulting in poor control
effects.
" In particular, Feng Yanling is concerned about the non-point source pollution caused by the random disposal of waste
.
“People often throw wastes such as medicine bottles, medicine bags, and remaining residual pesticides directly on the ground, ditch, or river, causing environmental pollution, and if the livestock is eaten by mistake, they will be poisoned
.
Although the recycling of pesticide packaging waste is carried out in various places.
However, there is a big gap between the existing recycling capacity and actual needs, and governments at all levels need to further increase special fund support
.
" The use and supervision of pesticides are related to agricultural production safety, agricultural product quality safety, ecological environment safety, and human health and safety
.
In order to ensure that pesticide use supervision in rural areas is more standardized and reasonable, and pesticide packaging waste is recycled reasonably, she recommends:-Comprehensively improve the level of scientific drug use and further increase the utilization rate of pesticides
.
Promote and popularize scientific knowledge of drug use, improve pesticide users' ability to recognize various diseases and insect pests, reduce pesticide use through precise application; do a good job in pest forecasting and early warning, prevent pest outbreaks and disasters through early prevention and control, and reduce pesticide use; Increase the rate of specialized unified prevention and control, improve the efficiency of prevention and control through unified prevention and control, and reduce the use of pesticides; vigorously promote green prevention and control technologies for pests and diseases, and reduce the use of pesticides through physical prevention and control, ecological prevention and biological pesticide replacement technologies
.
——Strengthen examination and approval supervision and strengthen law enforcement
.
Explore the implementation of a market access mechanism, establish a pesticide electronic supervision platform as soon as possible, implement online approval, scan code purchases and sales, and network intelligent monitoring
.
Improve the supervision and spot check system, carry out supervision and spot checks on the quality of pesticide products in accordance with the law, and focus on cracking down on the illegal activities of banned pesticides in production and operation, illegal addition of prohibited and restricted pesticides, and illegal use of prohibited and restricted pesticides
.
Intensify efforts to implement the real-name drug purchase system for medium and high-toxic pesticides, and gradually explore the implementation of the pesticide use quota system or prescription system
.
——Establish a long-term mechanism to further increase the recycling rate of pesticide packaging waste
.
In accordance with the requirements of the Ministry of Agriculture's "Pesticide Packaging Waste Recycling and Treatment Measures" (for trial implementation) in 2020, a long-term mechanism should be established to gradually increase the recycling rate of pesticide packaging waste in accordance with local conditions
.
Incorporate the effectiveness of the recycling and treatment of pesticide packaging waste into the government's performance evaluation, increase special financial investment, improve recycling and processing capabilities, and introduce third-party professional organizations to carry out specific recycling work through the combination of government purchase services and "who produces, who recycles"
