The reporter recently learned that the Guangzhou Zengcheng District Procuratorate recently approved the arrest of Huang Mengguang, a vegetable farmer who used the highly toxic pesticide isocarbophos when growing vegetables, for the crime of producing and selling toxic and harmful food.

According to a review by the prosecutor, in November 2015, grower Huang Mouguang used isocarbophos pesticide to grow string beans and sell them to nearby markets on a vegetable field in a village in Shitan Town, Zengcheng District, Guangzhou City.

The test report of Guangzhou Agricultural Standards and testing Center shows that the isocarbophos in the samples submitted for inspection do not meet the requirements announced by the Ministry of Agriculture of China and are unqualified agricultural products. According to China's "Pesticide Management regulations" and "Ministry of Agriculture announcement No. 194" and other relevant provisions, isocarbophos is a highly toxic and highly toxic pesticide, which can not be used in vegetables, melons and fruits, tea and Chinese herbal medicines. While Huang Mouguang has been growing vegetables for many years, knowing that they are poisonous and harmful prohibited pesticides, he is still adding them to edible agricultural products. His behavior violates the relevant provisions of China's Criminal Law and is suspected to constitute the crime of producing and selling toxic and harmful food. At present, the case is still under further investigation.
