Is there another way out of pesticides and genetically modified rice?

On August 5, 2006, Greenpeace, an international environmental organization, held a seminar in Beijing to publish the “Report on China's Rice Ecological Agriculture” jointly completed by the organization and South China Agricultural University and Yunnan Agricultural University. The report systematically described the environmental threats posed by rice chemical agriculture and genetically modified agriculture, and detailedly introduced a variety of rice ecological agriculture solutions. Greenpeace expressed its hope that this report will cause the community to pay extensive attention to rice ecological agriculture, and thus contribute to the country's increased investment in research and promotion of ecological agriculture.

“Greenpeace has been exposing the ecological threats posed by the abuse of agricultural chemicals such as genetically modified crops and pesticides. It hopes to raise the whole society’s thinking on the real way out of agriculture,” said Ma Tianjie, director of the Greenpeace Food and Agriculture Project, “and this The "China Rice Ecological Agriculture Report", which incorporates the latest research results, is an attempt to actively seek solutions to problems."

Ma Tianjie said that Greenpeace and experts from South China Agricultural University and Yunnan Agricultural University jointly completed the "China Rice Ecological Agriculture Report" over the past year. Experts and scholars such as Professor Zhang Jia'en of South China Agricultural University and Professor Li Chengyun of Yunnan Agricultural University participated in the report. Compilation work. The first half of the report explained the significance of paddy fields as an ecosystem for food production and food security, and analyzed how the destruction of paddy ecosystems by chemical agriculture and the new threats posed by genetically modified agriculture will hinder the sustainable production of rice. The second half of the report describes a variety of rice eco-agricultural solutions. The listed eco-agricultural models such as rice-duck farming and rice diversity and mixed cultivation urgently need to rely on pesticides and fertilizers or high-risk genetically modified technologies to solve the problem of pests and diseases, but through biological diversity, relying on the scientific regulation of the rice paddy ecosystem. Intervene to achieve the goal.

"Compared with the chemical and transgenic agriculture that seeks short-term benefits at the expense of ecology, the ecological agriculture solution focuses more on solving the problems faced by rice farming through coordinated development with the ecosystem," Ma Tianjie said.

At today’s seminar, Dr. Chen Zhiqun, a senior agronomist from the National Agricultural Technology Promotion Center of the Ministry of Agriculture and Dr. Emerlito S. Borromeo, a rice expert from the Philippines, also introduced the Rice Integrated Pest Management (IPM) project and the Philippines’ control of white rice leaves. Blight experience. At the end of 2005, the Philippine government had to decide to shelve the commercialization of a plan for the cultivation of genetically modified rice because the antibacterial traits of transgenic rice against blight are inferior to traditional breeds. In his speech, Dr. Borromeo analyzed the case and listed a number of existing eco-agricultural programs for effective control of bacterial blight. It is reported that in China, anti-bacterial bacterial blight resistance was submitted to the Ministry of Agriculture in 2004 for commercial planting. “The case of the Philippines has great implications for China,” Ma Tianjie said. “If the existing methods can fully control bacterial blight, whether it is worth promoting high-risk genetically modified rice is indeed questionable. ”

This "China Rice Ecological Agriculture Report" also analyzes the problems faced by China's current development of rice ecological agriculture. The weak research and promotion of ecological agriculture is a key issue. Professor Zhang Jiaen, who participated in the report writing, believes that: “China’s ecological agriculture is an environmentally friendly agricultural production method based on the absorption of modern agricultural technology based on the essence of traditional agricultural technology, but due to history, policies, markets and other reasons , Failed to be promoted vigorously, there are difficulties such as weak promotion system and lack of support from the regional environment.” Greenpeace and related experts therefore called for the government to increase research and promotion of rice eco-agricultural technologies and establish sound promotion. The system will spread research results to the vast rural areas as soon as possible, encourage more and more farmers to use ecological farming methods, and promote the development of rice production through ecological agriculture.
