I can extract side effects

On the border of Tianzhu Kingdom, there are already signs of locust plagues here.

Swarms of locusts swarm in farmland, gnawing on rice, wheat and fruit trees.

Farmers have suffered heavy losses. If the locust swarms are not eradicated and allowed to develop, this year's grain production will not only be reduced, but will be no harvest.

So the president of Tianzhu and the CEO of Bayer Crop quickly rushed here with a group of people to start exterminating locusts from the worst-hit places.

The local area quickly arranged a plane and began to prepare for spraying Bayer's new pesticides.

The plane was loaded with a sufficient amount of medicinal powder, soared into the sky, and quickly arrived at the area where the locusts were infested, flying at low altitude and spraying the medicinal powder.

When the spraying was over, the locusts seemed to be unaffected and were still eating the crops.

The CEO of Bayer explained calmly: "It usually takes about eight hours for our pesticide to completely kill the adult locusts. It will take effect in two hours at the fastest, and it will not exceed twelve hours at the slowest."

"Don't worry, tonight, you will see countless dead locusts on the ground, and the eggs laid by those locusts will also be killed. The whole effect can last for three to five days."

President Tianzhu nodded confidently while holding up a telescope to observe the locust swarms in the distance. He is still very confident in Bayer's pesticides. They are produced by major manufacturers and the quality is guaranteed, so there will be no problems.

Sure enough, two hours later, locusts began to die one after another in the places where Bayer's pesticides were sprayed.

On the ground and in the air, locusts kept falling to the ground in random numbers. After landing, they thumped a few times, and then stopped struggling on their stomachs. Only the limbs were still trembling slightly, and they seemed to be dead.

The people on Tianzhu's side immediately cheered. They did not expect that Bayer's pesticides would have such a good effect.

The CEO of Bayer looked proud: "Did you see that? Our pesticides are not only effective, but also the fastest. The locusts started to die within two hours, much faster than DuPont's pesticides, and they are not very toxic. , with little harm to people and the environment."

"And our pesticide prices are the cheapest. Generally speaking, they are the most cost-effective. Does it matter how to choose?"

President Tianzhu nodded in satisfaction, and was about to speak a few words of praise when suddenly he smelled a pungent chemical smell.

His face suddenly changed. The place where this group of people were standing was separated from the farmland sprayed with pesticides by a hill, and they were not standing at the downwind outlet. How could they still smell it so far away? How big is the smell of this scene?

The CEO of Bayer also smelled this smell, and the smile on his face froze immediately: "Mr. President, don't worry, although this smell is strong, it is very low in toxicity and has no effect on the human body. It will degrade soon and become non-toxic. .”

President Tianzhu's face was cloudy and uncertain, and he reluctantly accepted this statement.

But the agricultural experts and environmental protection experts standing next to them became a little ugly when they smelled the chemical smell in the air.

Although the smell in the air is relatively weak, but it has drifted over from such a distance, it doesn't look like it is not poisonous, even if the toxicity is low, it is still poisonous.

It may be fine to use it in small amounts at ordinary times, but now that the locust plague is so severe, it must be used in large quantities in order to completely kill the locust swarm.

When this toxicity accumulates, not only will there be poison residues on the food, but it will also seep into the land and groundwater, causing great pollution and threatening the health of the people for a long time.

You have to check it carefully and see the result.

If the toxicity is really high, it must not be extended to other places.

Experts took out testing tools one after another and began to test the air quality to see how much toxicity remains in the air and how long it can last.

They also went to the place where pesticides were sprayed and picked up some dead locust entities for testing to see if the birds would be poisoned after eating them.

While the experts were testing, the rest of the people looked at the locust swarm in the sky and felt something was wrong.

Why is the death rate of locusts slowing down?

At the beginning, the locusts died quite quickly. Why did the locusts die slower after more than an hour?

Why didn't the density of locust swarms in the sky change too much?

It seems that the death rate is not too high, even 50%.

Even an unintelligible layman like President Tianzhu could see that something was wrong.

He immediately asked: "Can you Bayer explain why the locusts die so slowly? How much can your pesticide kill the locusts?"

The CEO of Bayer also looked a little embarrassed, but he still squeezed out a smile and said: "Mr. President, don't worry, the death of locusts will take a certain amount of time, and it will take eight hours to kill them all. It is only more than three hours now, please wait patiently." , tomorrow you will see that all the locusts are dead."

President Tianzhu nodded thoughtfully. If that's the case, then you really can't blame the other party. After all, it will take some time to achieve a 90% locust eradication rate.

He was about to speak when suddenly his stomach churned, making him feel nauseous, and he quickly took a deep breath, trying to suppress this feeling.

Unexpectedly, when he inhaled this breath, the choking smell in his nose became stronger, as if the flood valve had been opened in an instant, he couldn't help but bent over and vomited wildly.

After vomiting, I felt my legs were weak, and I was about to force myself to stand up, when suddenly I became dizzy, staggered, and almost fell to the ground.

The guard next to him turned pale with fright, rushed up to support the President, carried him into the car at the speed of light, and sent him to the hospital.

Everyone looked at this scene, stunned, and then glared at the CEO of Bayer.

At this moment, the CEO of Bayer wished that there was a crack in the ground to get in, and he was also very wronged in his heart. Is the president of a country so weak? Can't stand a little chemical smell? For a person like him who exercises regularly, there is nothing wrong with smelling it.

All the people on the scene were quickly evacuated, and they had to go back for testing and produce a toxicity report immediately, severely slapping Bayer in the face, and trying to return the product as soon as possible.

If we say that before, they only had doubts in their hearts, but after President Dianzhu passed out from the smoke, everyone suddenly felt like a mirror in their hearts.

Bayer's pesticide must be a strong pesticide, very toxic, and must not be used.

Otherwise, it cannot be explained to the public.

It can't be said that in order to protect food, people and the environment were sacrificed?

When the desert country and Tianzhu country's locust extermination operations were frustrated, the pesticide experiment area on the other side of the Philippines was full of joy.

The locust plague in Ethiopia is one of the most serious areas, and the national grain production has been reduced by more than 50%.

Most of the locusts have flown to neighboring countries, but many of them stayed. After eating rice and wheat, they were still eating fruit trees and even turf.

So as soon as Jemore received the pesticide from Sanqing, he immediately arranged a plane to spray the pesticide.

The plane sprayed frantically around the densest locust swarm, and layers of white mist enveloped the entire locust swarm.

After ten minutes.

Crackling!

The locusts in the sky kept falling to the ground, and the locusts on the ground turned over, their belly turned upside down, and died convulsingly.

People looked at all this, their mouths grew wide one by one, as if they were dreaming.

They had never seen such a miraculous insecticide, and they were completely shocked.

It took a long time to wake up and cheer happily.

Some people even beat gongs and drums and danced with hands and feet.

Jemore was overjoyed, the effect of Sanqing's special pesticide was too strong, and it almost compared other pesticides to scum.

He put on his gloves, grabbed a handful of locust carcasses and threw them into a bag: "Come on, let's take these for toxicology testing to see if this pesticide is harmful to humans, birds, and the environment."

When it got dark, everyone left. They saw the locusts dying in large numbers with their own eyes. Now there are not many locust swarms left here.

Early the next morning, someone knocked on Jemore's door.

"Minister, let's go and see, the locusts are all dead, and our locust plague will soon be over." The visitor said excitedly.

Jemore quickly put on his clothes and ran to the fields where he applied pesticides. He only saw the dead locusts all over the ground, not a single locust in the air.

He couldn't help laughing out loud.

This kill rate is too high, and the locusts are really going to be completely extinct this time.

The locust plague in the Philippines seems to be coming to an end.
