"I saw the most outstanding middle-aged people of this generation destroyed by wolfberry" Qinghai wolfberry heavy metal pollution incident investigation

Mar 13, 2022

In the first half and second half of 2021, we went to Qinghai twice for research and tour

Chinese people eat 420,000 tons of wolfberry a year, see what crazy advertisements are behind this

According to the statistics,

In 2020, the Chinese ate a total of 428,500 tons of wolfberry,

This is inseparable from the crazy advertising:

"Tai Shi Huang's search for the secret of longevity for thousands of years! Opened to the world, black wolfberry..."

"Lycium barbarum can invigorate the kidney and strengthen yang, but these 4 kinds of people should not eat easily, they are quite poison"

"Kidney deficiency can be saved, goji berry paired with it, eat one day a day, completely eradicated in 7 days"

"It is the "King of Fruits", 8 times as nutritious as blueberries, beauty and beauty..."

"Why do we Chinese wolfberry make foreigners crazy? You'll understand after reading it

"Lycium barbarum is also a good medicine for preventing hair loss, one month of hair loss, white hair, black and thick"

Qinghai wolfberry, which is second only to Ningxia in popularity: Are there any pesticide and heavy metal residues? Is there soil pollution?

Qaidam wolfberry: Also known as Qinghai wolfberry , it is mainly produced in Golmud, Dulan, Ulan, Delingha and other areas in the Qaidam Basin, Haixi Prefecture, Qinghai Province. There is no industrial pollution, the population density is small, the ecological environment is clean, the water source and soil are free of pollution, pesticides and heavy metal residues , and the organic wolfberry produced has reached the highest international standards in the same industry.

—Official website of Haixi Prefecture Government of Qinghai Province

Qaidam wolfberry grows under the Kunlun Mountains on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, which is "one of the four major ultra-clean areas in the world", with an average altitude of 2,800 meters, annual sunshine of about 3,200 hours, a large temperature difference of 30°C between day and night, and a pollution-free environment within a radius of 300 miles. And the selenium-rich soil characteristics make Qaidam wolfberry basically free of pesticides and heavy metal residues , and Qaidam wolfberry is known as "the ruby of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau". The total area of wolfberry planting has now reached 748,000 mu, which has become the largest wolfberry planting area in the country. At present, there are five varieties of red wolfberry, black wolfberry, yellow wolfberry, white wolfberry and purple wolfberry in the Qaidam Basin, mainly concentrated in Nuomuhong. Farm, Nuomuhong Township, Dulan, Golmud and Delingha.

The truth is shocking:

After sampling and testing, 25% of wolfberry lead exceeded the standard.

30% of wolfberry sulfur dioxide exceeds the standard

The paper shows that,

The lead, cadmium and mercury in the soil of the Qaidam wolfberry farm exceeded the standard

Nuomuhong Farm in Qaidam Basin (Satellite Map)

Golmud Hexi Farm, Qaidam Basin (satellite map)

1. Test results: 25% of wolfberry lead exceeds the standard, 30% of sulfur dioxide exceeds the standard

20 random samples of wolfberry (20 catties) were purchased from field traders, supermarkets, and specialty stores in Qaidam area. The price ranges from 25 yuan to 45 yuan per catty.

A total of 20 pieces of wolfberry, according to the "National Food Safety Standard - Determination of Lead in Food", up to 25% of the lead exceeds the standard and is not suitable for human consumption. Among them, the threat is the most serious, with lead exceeding the standard by up to 4 times.

Up to 30% of wolfberry sulfur dioxide residues exceed the standard, which does not meet the maximum limit of pesticide residues in food in the "National Food Safety Standard" implemented by China. Excessive intake of sulfur dioxide in the human body is prone to allergies, which may cause symptoms such as difficulty in breathing, diarrhea, and vomiting, and may cause varying degrees of damage to the brain and other tissues.

2. Thesis: Soil cadmium, mercury and lead exceeded the standard, cadmium and lead in wolfberry exceeded the standard, and about 20% of the pesticide residue in wolfberry exceeded the EU maximum limit standard

The average values of the five elements are Cd 0.16 mg·kg-1, Cr 37.09 mg·kg-1, Hg 0.02 mg·kg-1, Pb 22.92 mg·kg-1, As 10.46 mg·kg-1, Cd, Hg The content of elements and Pb elements is higher than the natural background value of soil in Qinghai Province. The planting soil in this study area is mainly disturbed by human activities, and the use of agricultural inputs is an important factor affecting the accumulation of heavy metals in the soil; the investigation found that there is a large amount of fertilization in the process of planting and production of wolfberry, and the field management mode of different production areas is different. Larger, resulting in the heavy metal Cd content of individual samples exceeding the limit standard value.

According to the limit standard of heavy metals in agricultural products in the "Limits of Contaminants in Foods" (GB 2762-2012), Cd and Pb in Lycium barbarum exceeded the standard by 35.56% and 2.22%, respectively. ("Analysis of heavy metal content of Lycium barbarum in Qinghai Province and research on soil correlation", 2018)

Among the 150 Lycium barbarum samples tested, 32 samples had individual pesticide residues that exceeded the EU MRL standard, of which pyridaben had the highest exceeding rate, reaching 9.3%.

Through the risk assessment of pesticide residues on 150 dried wolfberry fruits collected in the main production areas of wolfberry, it was found that pesticide residues were detected in 96 samples, accounting for 64%; there were 32 samples with individual pesticides exceeding the standard, and the exceeding rate of pyridaben. The highest, reaching 9.3%; based on the evaluation basis of the contamination limit value in food stipulated by the national standard, the obtained mean index value PI is 0.333, and the wolfberry is in a state of light pollution.

Based on the national standard, the values of As and Cu are 0.56 and 0.677, respectively. The single pollution index value is relatively large and should be paid attention to. ("Research on Quality and Safety Evaluation of Lycium Barbarum Pesticides and Heavy Metals in Qaidam Basin" 2018)

The content analysis of 5 elements in 50 samples of Lycium barbarum planting soil in Qinghai showed that the content of Cd, Hg and Pb was slightly higher than the natural background value of soil. ("Status and potential risk analysis of heavy metal enrichment in Lycium barbarum planting soil in Qinghai Province", 2018)

3. Harm: Threatening the quality and safety of crops, eating crops grown in heavy metal soil may cause disease

There are many ways of heavy metal pollution in soil, mainly including sewage irrigation pollution, fertilizer pollution, atmospheric deposition pollution, pesticide heavy metal pollution and traffic pollution.

The hazards of excessive heavy metals in farmland are mainly manifested in the following three aspects:

First, the harm to farmland soil: After a large amount of heavy metals enter the farmland soil, they cannot be degraded or moved out. After gradually accumulating, it will cause adverse effects on the physical and chemical properties and biological properties of the soil, and harm the biological population in the soil.

Second, it will cause harm to crops in the farmland: heavy metal pollution will cause direct damage to crops, which may lead to poor crop growth and even death of crops. The crops produced in the polluted farmland have excessive heavy metals, threatening the quality and safety of crops.

Third, the harm to human health: heavy metals and other pollutants in soil will cause harm to human health through various food chains and gradual biological enrichment, and can also indirectly threaten human health by affecting the quality of water bodies and atmospheric environment.

Lycium barbarum chaos: Goji berries that local people don't eat make "the people of the whole country eat poison"

As one of the hubs for the exchange of local information, local taxi drivers said that local people do not eat locally grown wolfberry. As a local who has planted and picked wolfberry, talking about the behavior of a large number of growers who put toxic additives such as sodium sulfite in wolfberry, he cursed: "Fuck the whole country people eat poison."

When we visited, we met a number of farmers who were fertilizing the fields. Some people said, "We don't eat them ourselves, nor do we eat them as snacks." Some people said, "We just eat one or two fruits when we pick (lycium barbarum), and we hardly eat them. this."

1. Two or three kilograms of chemical fertilizer should be applied to a wolfberry tree, and 600-900 kilograms of chemical fertilizer should be applied to one mu of land. Excessive fertilization will cause heavy metal accumulation in the soil.

National Fertilizer Commercial Reserve Bank (Nuomuhong)

Golmud farm tractor pulls fertilizer to the field

In pursuit of grain yield and economic benefits, farmers apply nitrogen and phosphate fertilizers in large quantities, and the acidity of the soil has soared. Studies have shown that the activity value of heavy metal flow in the soil increases by 10 times for each unit drop in soil pH. Studies have shown that the long-term application of chemical fertilizers will cause the accumulation of heavy metals in the soil. Such as long-term application of ammonium nitrate, ammonium phosphate and compound fertilizer, the As content in the soil can reach 50-60 mg/kg. For example, in Helan County, Ningxia, which is known as the "south of the Yangtze River", there are livestock and poultry breeding in every household. Farmyard manure, which is decomposed from livestock and poultry manure, is the main fertilizer applied by the villagers to the farmland. Over time, it will cause the accumulation of Cd elements in the soil.

The fertilization technology in the whole Qaidam pollution-free planting area is extensive and the fertilization is unreasonable. Blind and excessive fertilization is common among growers in pursuit of yield, and lack of technical guidance on balanced fertilization results in low fertilizer utilization and large waste. The amount of organic fertilizer applied in the planting area is relatively small. Some organic wolfberry bases and green wolfberry bases mainly use organic fertilizers, mainly chicken manure, rapeseed cake, sheep board manure and commercial organic fertilizers. Only a few farmers use farmyard manure. Fertilizer is mainly used as base fertilizer before planting. Most farmers and bases mainly use chemical fertilizers, and the fertilization varieties are relatively simple, mainly urea and diammonium phosphate. Some farmers use compound fertilizers, and the base fertilization is relatively uniform. Fertilize about 5 to 6 times throughout the year, and fertilize during the key growth period, from the leaf germination period to the third fruiting period. The main application of urea and diammonium phosphate is to use the method of spreading or hole application. Fertilizer is applied every time it is watered. The dosage is large, about 500 g per tree each time, and the amount of urea is high. The annual urea application amount is 200~300 kg. /666.67 ㎡, the application amount of DAP is 150~200 kg/666.67 ㎡.

In Nuomuhong Farm, a farmer who grows Ningqi No. 1 said, "If you use a little more fertilizer, the wolfberry will be bigger. If you use less fertilizer, the wolfberry will be smaller. It will grow according to the amount of fertilizer. A tree needs three kilograms. It's a little better fertilizer, it's a little better, your cheap fertilizers don't have the effect. Generally, nucleic acid diamine should be put in. Sheep manure will not work. If you put sheep manure for two years, the tree will die. It corrodes badly. It's generally all chemical fertilizers. This organic fertilizer compound fertilizer is a little bit more."

2. Under the heavy punishment, the wolfberry with poisonous agents is still sold well all over the country

Qaidam goji berries are full of grains, and have more sugar than goji berries from other producing areas. Goji berries tend to be sticky after normal drying. In the "poisonous wolfberry" on the market, sodium metabisulfite is generally added during the drying process of the wolfberry, so that the color of the wolfberry is bright red, not easy to stick, and looks better and sells better.

A. "I will be sentenced to prison." The maximum amount of sodium added exceeds the national standard by 300 times.

The full name of sodium sulfite is sodium metabisulfite, which is a food additive. In the food industry, it is used as a bleaching agent, preservative, bulking agent, antioxidant, color retention agent and preservative. Sodium sulfite is carcinogenic, and has a greater effect on the respiratory tract, liver, kidney, and almost all organs of the body. Excessive intake can even lead to death.

The owner of a wolfberry specialty store in Nuomuhong said, "The state allows this stuff to be put in. But he has a certain percentage, and it can't exceed the standard. Normally, only one or two can be put in a thousand catties of water. Now growers have it. Three to four catties should be placed in a hundred catties of water .”

According to the local people, " 90% of the people are engaged in sub-sodium . The sub-sodium is not beaten, the wolfberry is not as red, and the color becomes a little darker. "

A grower said that someone else said in front of the police before, " If you sentence me, I will release it. Because I won't release it, you will sell it to me? Right? He didn't arrest people either, there were a lot of people there."

B. "If you don't add sodium sulfite, the boss who buys wolfberry doesn't want it"

Why do farmers use sodium sulfite? Because wolfberry needs to remove the surface wax layer to dry, the traditional method is to dry it after treatment with edible alkaline water. When the weather is bad, wolfberry will be damaged if it is not dried. After processing with sodium sulfite, it can be dried quickly, it will not be damaged during drying, and the color is bright and beautiful; on the other hand, because there is no brand or the brand is not big enough, most farmers' wolfberry can only be purchased by wolfberry company, and the buyer prefers color Bright wolfberry, natural wolfberry is cheap and unmarketable, forcing farmers to use sodium sulfite.

Chatting with the shop owner in the village of Hexi Farm in Golmud, she said: " Generally, there is no additive (sodium) added. If it is not added, the bosses who collect wolfberry don't want it. "

A grower surnamed Niu said: "My own family has three or four catties, and I don't put medicine. I eat it by myself. We also hope that there is no medicine. The fruits on the market are very beautiful, and they all contain additives (sodium sodium). , the color is very red and red. We don't want to add it, but others don't. If they don't put it, they will buy it for a dozen yuan, and if they put it, they will sell it for more than twenty yuan. That's a lot worse .

Another grower said: "The first crop of wolfberry (sell) 16 (pieces), the second crop (sell) 14, the third crop (sell) 14. The ones that were not sold last year sold for 18 this year, and the price has gone up. We are all sun-dried Yes, drying will increase the cost price. It will take four days to dry, and the next day will take four or five, five or six days, and the weather will get cooler. When the weather is good, the color will look better. Leave it alone. Additives are also better. If the weather looks bad, put additives. Don't be afraid of rain. Anti-insect and anti-corrosion. There are too many additives in good-looking online. "

Another grower said: "For example, if you are the boss, you buy wolfberry. If you release it in one year, you will buy it this year. If you come to buy in August and September, you should buy and store up the whole year. If you haven't sold out, you can continue to sell it next year, and the year after. It's not rotten, it's not rotten. You can sell it as you like. That is to say, it's justifiable from this year's new product. It's color is undefeated. It's not rotten either. Like this, if you don't add sodium sulfite to the dried fruit, I tell you, the fruit will not last for a year. The fruit will gradually turn dark. If you are the boss, you buy so many and don't sell out. Who are you selling to? "

C. Because the cost of drying is 1 yuan less than drying, they dry wolfberry in the cemetery, near the concentrator, on the side of the road... The wind is blowing and the dust is flying

Nom Hung Cemetery, photographed in September 2021

The growth environment of Qaidam wolfberry is not like the mainland. They are surrounded by Gobi, snow-capped mountains and deserts. When drying wolfberry, it is normal to fly sand and rocks. Most growers still use the traditional method of natural drying and manual selection. This method makes the dust, germs, eggs and other substances in the environment adhere to the fruit surface of the wolfberry , which will cause harm to harmful microorganisms. The drying place is close to the road. Dust and vehicle exhaust are also likely to cause secondary pollution .

A person from the Nuomuhong wolfberry store said: "The fruit in the drying field is the dried fruit. They basically add (sodium), because it takes seven days for them to dry. In case of rain, the color will be black. It's ugly. We don't need to dry it, we can dry it for more than 20 hours.

If it is dried in the sun, it will not work. If it is dried in the sun, it will be that wind and sand that is particularly heavy. If it gets rained in the middle, the fruit will almost be scrapped, and it will not be able to finish. "

"At that time, it rained the most (July, August, and September). It happened to be the season of wolfberry. If it rained for two hours in the middle, then it would not work. But it didn't rain for too long. He is one hour or two hours. But if the fruit has just been spread, and then the fruit has rained, then the fruit will be useless. If it is dried, it is a little higher than a dollar. But some people will Considering this dollar. He usually planted several tens of acres or more than 100 acres, and then he took into account the cost. Then, if he bought 1,000 or 800 jin per acre of real estate, he just said a few hundred dollars. out. "

3. Pesticide: "It used to be at most once and twice, but now it is four and five times"

Relevant scholars have found that there are more than 20 species of wolfberry diseases and insect pests in my country. Among them, there are three main pests and diseases in Qaidam area, namely powdery mildew, aphids and mites. Serious diseases and insect pests endanger the growth of fruit trees, flowers and young fruits, and have a great impact on the yield and quality of wolfberry. In pursuit of personal interests, some farmers use a large amount of pesticides to prevent and control them. It is undeniable that their economic benefits have been improved in a short period of time. However, this method seriously endangers the life and safety of consumers.

In the field, he met a family member who was working, and the wind was strong. He used branches to support wolfberry, Ningqi No. 8, with a maximum output of 1,200 catties. He said: "It used to be once, twice, the most, now it's four and five times. Our obedient people are all dispensed from the brigade's agricultural materials distribution station, and the disobedient people are from Golmud. , From Xining, the drugs that are not allowed to be hit on food, the residues of that (pesticide) will not get off, it must be effective against bugs, hit that kind. Let me tell you, this way starts to hit, hit the end, the bugs here It started to fall. Now I want to catch you, as long as you are caught, it will be punished by tens of thousands ."

4. At the craziest time, black wolfberry sold for 8,000 yuan per catty, and now the purchase price is more than 20 yuan per catty. In the past, when people sold wolfberry land, one mu of land could sell for 60,000 yuan, but no one cares about it now.

In the past few years, when the black wolfberry was sold at its craziest, many people were fake. When selling Qinghai black wolfberry, they mixed the black wolfberry from Xinjiang and Ningxia into the Qinghai black wolfberry, which consumers could not identify at all.

Some people in the industry said: "You know how much I can sell a pound of black wolfberry when I was the craziest in 2013 and 2014? I'm afraid I'll scare you, so don't worry about the time, I'll tell you, I can sell a pound of wolfberry for 5,000 to 8,000 yuan, black wolfberry. Hey, there is no way, in the grasslands, you know that we receive a pound of fresh fruit back, do you know how much it costs? Between one hundred and two to one hundred and fifty It takes seven and a half to eight catties to produce a pound of finished goods. You can do the math. I will remove the labor. I have to pass the sieve again to get rid of the small materials. My classmates and I drove from Nuomuhong to the car. , went to Xinjiang to collect a batch of black wolfberry. Do you know how much that carload of black wolfberry made when we were most exaggerated? Half a million! ”

"The most expensive land I've ever sold is 60,000 yuan. The cost is 50,000 yuan. One mu earns 10,000 yuan. The 20-plus mu of land earns more than 200,000 yuan. Then I have a winter, two or three months. , I made over a million. ”

There are also many people who have become losers in crazy gambling. The price of wolfberry land has plummeted. In Golmud, at least 30 businessmen have lost a mess.

5. Two statements:

A. Ningxia people buy Qinghai wolfberry and pack it into Ningxia wolfberry;

B. Qinghai people pack Qinghai wolfberry into Ningxia wolfberry

Either way, it shows the disorder of the brand, the scarcity of famous brands, the confusion of the market and the violation of consumers' right to know.

For Ningxia wolfberry, although it has a huge reputation in the production area and a golden signboard of a well-known trademark in China, its appearance is not flattering, which also gives some "operation space" for wolfberry in other production areas. There are a lot of them, and the amount of wolfberry in Zhongning is not that large. As long as the wolfberry comes from here, everyone says that it is from Ningxia, and many of the wolfberry from Zhongning and packaged in Zhongning are actually foreign goods .” And The statistics of the Zhongning County Government seem to confirm this statement. The annual transaction volume of the Zhongning International Wolfberry Trading Center is 150,000 tons, while the output of Zhongning wolfberry only accounts for 1/3.

For Qinghai wolfberry, "Ningxia's wolfberry belongs to a brand, and it has been a brand for a long time. If you press the brand, we can't compare it; but in terms of quality, it definitely exceeds, because the sunshine here is longer, from It is bright at six in the morning, and it is dark until ten in the evening, so its sunshine time is relatively long. That is to say, its quality is relatively good in terms of sugar content and sugar content.”

In Golmud, in August and September every year, many bosses in Ningxia buy whole tons of wolfberry here. After buying them back, they are sent to all parts of the country from the factory in Ningxia.

6. The local Internet celebrity wolfberry brand has left the market because of the tricky, and Sanwu products are still surging in the market

Now the investigation is getting stricter and stricter, and a boss who sells wolfberry said: "Now this food, you must be careful. You look like it's on the farm until now. Er, there are three Internet celebrity bars on the farm, and some people have been working for a year. I just moved away. The reason for the move is because of complaints. Too many false advertisements. It was reported. So whoever, whoever, the reason why they moved away the year before is also because there was a problem with wolfberry.

You don't have a manufacturer, you don't have a production date, you don't have a hygiene license number, so you're just as careful as you can. I closed the online store. The sales volume can’t be eliminated much in a year. Conversely, this complaint is always the same. Oops, I have a headache. Let me tell you, in a year, I often run to the market supervision office, and my legs are broken. And now the state expressly stipulates that if you leave one, you will pay ten. Buy a bag of wolfberry for 20 yuan, and you have to lose 200 yuan after it is finished. You don't have to pay, but the Market Supervision Office will not withdraw the lawsuit. If you don't withdraw your lawsuit, the market supervision office will trouble you every day.

I just put such a bag in this place. You can see that there is nothing printed on this bag, do you see it? Then I put this kind of white bag again, this is what the market supervision office is supposed to do. "

7. Online sales of fake advertisements that cater to consumers: the propaganda said that wolfberry is naturally dried, and only dried when shipped

On the one hand, consumers are obsessed with the advertising description of natural drying, but on the other hand, they are not satisfied with the color and viscosity of natural drying.

According to an industry insider, "If you want to sell well, you say natural drying, natural drying, because they don't know what this natural drying is.

There is a lot of sand in the sun-dried ones, and we usually eat the dried ones. But if you tell them, all the goods I send to you are dried, they will say that the dried ones lose their nutrients, what happened, there are a lot of them.

But once you send him dried goods, he will say what kind of wolfberry you are. Once you give him a natural sun-dried. All kinds of things came out. His one dried naturally. After the first time, it was mailed out. Before it arrived, it was almost all a dumpling. Because his drying is 70% dry, and he can't dry it very well. He is the first weighing scale when he goes out. The things he sells are all very heavy weighing items.

He's all giving you bad reviews.

So when you are promoting this, you are promoting something that is sun-dried, but when you post it, it must be dry, why? What they see and what they think are completely different things. What they imagined, this one was well-dried and healthy, that is to say, the nutrients were not lost, but what they imagined is completely different from the actual one. "

8. The fertilizer bags were burned on the spot, and the poisonous smoke was scattered into the wolfberry field.

Golmud Hexi Farm burns fertilizer bags, various bottles and cans

Golmud Hexi Farm has built a lot of recycling points for fertilizer bags. During our visit, we found that many cement boxes were being burned on the spot, and the poisonous fumes were scattered, which directly polluted the wolfberry field.

The soul asks: How much poisonous wolfberry does an outstanding middle-aged person need to soak in to completely destroy himself?

Tips : It is said that a healthy adult should eat about 20 grams of wolfberry every day.

Baidu Encyclopedia "middle-aged" : According to China's national conditions, the average person aged 40-55 is more realistic as a middle-aged stage. Such people are often accompanied by the accumulation and growth of knowledge and increasing experience, but the physiological functions of the human body are unknowingly declining and so on.

Answering elementary school math questions : Soak 20 grams of wolfberry every day, and soak 14.6 pounds of wolfberry in one year. How many pounds did a middle-aged person drink for 16 years?

The answer is... 234 pounds!

8+3: Heavy Metal Country Tour 2021-2022

In response to severe heavy metal pollution, we want to do something.

Heavy metal pollution is nothing short of a nightmare. Over the years, children's blood lead incidents, poisoned rice incidents, and incidents in cancer villages across the country have frequently occurred, bringing suffering to the countryside (while 1/5 of China's arable land is polluted by heavy metals, it is abstract The data are converted into specific pollution incidents, which are shocking). At the same time, heavy metal pollution mostly occurs in villages where there is no right to speak, and it is highly concealed. Under today's national policy of "lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets", environmental pollution is still a very sensitive topic in many areas. Information is covered up, the facts of pollution cannot be made public, and the public's right to know is not fully guaranteed.

In the spring and summer of 2021, we have completed the investigation of 8 villages polluted by heavy metals in 7 provinces in China (there are also 3 projects outside the number: ZiBo Hotpot Fish Splashing Water Festival, etc.), which is 8+3. Afterwards, we invited a number of friends to write lyrics based on the research data, and invited two heavy metal bands to tour 8 villages, so that heavy metal could pay attention to heavy metal, let more people see the hidden cruelty, and connect more people to participate - this The project is called "Heavy Metal Rural Tour 2021". We look forward to promoting relevant departments and enterprises to remediate and repair 11 places polluted by heavy metals and water through direct actions. We expect the whole society to pay attention to the problem of heavy metal pollution, which is more serious than smog.
