Last Updated: 2024/11/05, In rural areas, farmers often encounter such a phenomenon: when giving medicine, farmers do not know what pesticide they use, nor how many times the pesticide should be blended, but only know how many caps a bucket of water is mixed with (pesticide bottle cap). This is the true portrayal of most Chinese farmers using pesticides nowadays. Of course, this situation has something to do with farmers.

Mitsubishi heavy Industries of Japan has developed a technology to kill rice and other grains by increasing or decreasing the pressure of carbon dioxide. Compared with traditional methods, the new technology does less damage to the environment and less harm to the human body. This technique makes use of the principle that sudden decompression under high pressure will cause an object to expand. The specific method is to put the rice in the treatment tank and pass through the carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide penetrates into the adults, larvae and eggs of the pests, but hardly into the grains. Then the pressure in the tank is raised to 30 pressure, which lasts for a few minutes and then suddenly decompresses. At this time, almost all the pests will die as a result of physical expansion and rupture, the eggs will be destroyed, and the grain will not be affected.
