    Introduction: the research results show that pesticides may cause Parkinson's disease For Wei Shiliang, a farmer in Wuming County of Guangxi who has been living on land for generations, farming cattle is the lifeblood of his family of six But not long ago, his cattle died from drinking water contaminated with pesticides It is understood that the source of the poison comes from the villager who sprays the pesticide "LEGO" on the fruit tree, and then throws the residual pesticide in the bottle together with the bottle into the pool, resulting in the bad fruit In recent years, China has done a lot of work in the control of pesticide residues Some provinces have established the monitoring system of agricultural residues, and even some places have launched the "pesticide residues monitoring network" These measures have played a very important role in controlling pesticide residues and protecting the health of the people However, it is not difficult to find that these measures basically only focus on the monitoring of pesticide residues hidden in agricultural products, but ignore the other pole, that is, the harm of some wastes that can be seen by the naked eye after using pesticides, such as residual pesticides and bottles or bags containing pesticides The tragedy of Wei Shi's good family is a clear proof In recent years, with the increase of pesticide consumption year by year, pesticide residues can be seen everywhere Many farmers throw bottles or bags into the fields, ponds and rivers after spraying These residual pesticides not only cause serious air pollution, water pollution and soil pollution, but also directly leave hidden dangers to human and animal safety, and worsen the rural ecological environment At the same time, more and more glass bottles filled with pesticides are washed to dams or river turns by rainwater Some naughty children use them as targets and play with stones Broken glass may cut farmers and cattle in the fields at any time, which also pose a serious threat to people's production and life In response to this situation, the head of Guangxi plant protection department said that although the "pesticide management rules of the people's Republic of China" stipulates that the use of pesticides should do a good job in waste disposal and safety protection to prevent waste pollution and poisoning However, because farmers use pesticides in a scattered way, it is very difficult to deal with pesticide wastes in a centralized and unified way Even if they want to deal with pesticide wastes in a unified way, they also need the cooperation of environmental protection, inspection, health and epidemic prevention and other relevant departments At present, China has not established relevant systems in this regard Lu Weihai, director of Guangxi pesticide Inspection Institute, said that to some extent, the reason for this phenomenon is that the propaganda to farmers is not enough The relevant departments only focus on teaching farmers how to use pesticides, but neglect to guide how to deal with waste after using pesticides He suggested that all localities should, according to the actual situation, on the one hand, designate relevant personnel to be responsible for recycling pesticide waste; on the other hand, guide farmers to strengthen self-discipline, so that they can realize that the treatment of pesticide waste is not only for others, but also for themselves, so as to maximize the benefits and avoid harm EBS (author:) to feed Weibo to:
