In the eyes of those who catch earthworms to make a profit

Only "how many earthworms I caught today,

How much money can be sold"

They rarely think of such behavior

It may be on the health and ecological environment of the soil

Discarded severe damage

Native

Earthworms are the key species of sustainable soil, and they are known as "amazing underground workers". But I do n’t know when, wild earthworms have become the “Tang Seng meat” in the eyes of some criminals. They use special instruments to grab earthworms from the soil as a “road to get rich”.

In the eyes of these earthworms, only "how many earthworms I caught today and how much money can I sell", they rarely think that such behaviors will cause severe damage to the ecological environment.

In April of this year, the prosecutor of the Lianshui County Procuratorate of Jiangsu Province dug out the "one -stop" electrical earthworm industry chain of the "one dragon" in the routine inspection of the public interest lawsuit of the agricultural protection public interest litigation, as well as the unbearable to the land behind the industrial chain. pain.

The rich profit attracts many electric caughtrs to catch earthworms

The prosecutor found the villagers to clean up the captured wild earthworms.

"As soon as we walked to the side of the field that day, we found that someone was holding a rectangular instrument in the field. After a while, we saw the earthworms drill out under the ground ..." Xu Guijuan, the prosecutor of the fifth procuratorial department of the Lianshui County Procuratorate, Remember the scene I saw in the field of Chen Shi Town, the county on April 8 this year.

Lianshui County is an agricultural county. Since 2021, the Lianshui County Procuratorate has taken agricultural protection as the focus of public interest litigation. Xu Guijuan and her colleagues almost took time to inspect grass -roots towns every week. Intuition tells her that this instrument is very suspicious.

Xu Guijuan immediately looked for the nearby villagers to understand the situation. Then she learned that this instrument was called "Dilong instrument", which was specially used to catch earthworms. As long as the conductive needle on the instrument is inserted into the ground and the switch is turned on, the instrument can instantly release high voltage electricity to the nearby land. Under the stimulation of the current, the earthworms in the ground are difficult to breathe, and they will scramble to get out of the ground. Under normal circumstances, an adult can capture hundreds of pounds of earthworms every day using the "Dragon instrument".

These captured earthworms are either sent to illegal processing points to make earthworms and sell them to some pharmaceutical manufacturers; or they are sold to feed factories after being acquired to make high nutritional feed for breeding. This has also derived a series of products and "services" -

Waiting for dry earthworms.

Some people set up an illegal processing point in towns and towns to buy fresh earthworms to make dry earthworms. There are 5 such illegal processing points in a certain town of Lianshui. These processing points can send thousands of pounds of earthworms to pharmaceutical factories in Henan, Hebei and other places every day. Calculated according to 10 catties of live earthworms can be dried to make 1 pound of earthworms, almost tens of thousands of pounds of earthworms are captured every day.

"Peer -Hut House" Capture Destroy the soil ecology

Harm -harmful agricultural production safety

This situation made Xu Guijuan and her colleagues very distressed. So, is there any other townships in Lianshui County? Xu Guijuan decided to find out with his colleagues in the counties in the county.

During an unannounced visit, the prosecutor found that the phenomenon of electrical earthworms existed to varying degrees in various towns. A considerable part of the farmers believe: "Earthworms are everywhere, and it doesn't matter if you catch it ..."

So, is the earthworm really not related to grabbing a little? "I obviously feel the soil blocks in the land, and the water storage situation and soil are not as good as before ..." Huangying Town, Lianshui County, has contracted farmland for 16 years. After being "patronized" by the people who were arrested by the earthworm in his ground, the earthworms were almost extinct, affecting the ecology of the farmland.

Lao Liu is the big grain family in Chen Shizhen. In recent years, there are always people in the ground with the "Dragon Dragon instrument". Often, he has blasted away here, and someone over there sneak into the ground ... For this reason, Lao Liu also put it for 24 hours. Monitoring, but the effect is very small.

"Earthworms are important members of maintaining soil ecology and have a very important role in maintaining soil fertility. Earthworms can loose soil, prevent soil plates, and degrade pollutants in the soil. Various elements such as active organic substances and nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, so we will improve the soil by increasing the number of earthworm population in the soil. " It is even more indispensable to keep the biodiversity of the soil. Earthworms are even more indispensable. Lianshui is an important grain -producing area in northern Jiangsu, which is very important to protect earthworms. "

Dong Yuanhua, a researcher at the Nanjing Institute of Soil Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences, told reporters: "Earthworms are called engineers in the soil, and they are indicators of the quality of soil health. When we evaluate the quality of the soil, a standard is the number of earthworms per square meter. . It is generally believed that when the number of earthworms per square meter soil is greater than 50, it means that the soil is in a healthy state; when the number is 20 to 50, it means that the soil is in a medium degradation state; when the number is 4 to 20, it means that the soil is soil, which means that the soil is soil, which means that the soil is soil. It is in a state of severe degeneration; the number is less than 4, indicating that the soil is in a very unhealthy state. "

The behavior of electric catching earthworms not only affects the health of cultivated land soil, but also causes harm to other agricultural products.

Asparagus is a special agricultural product of Lianshui. The planting area is about 20,000 mu, and the annual output value can reach 800 million yuan. Products are sold to 20 provinces and cities across the country. However, because someone caught earthworms in the ground, the soil ecology was destroyed, and the growers had to spend huge sums of money to buy earthworm dung containing earthworm larvae to improve the quality of the soil. It is understood that some asparagus planting households are used to buy earthworm manure and artificial transportation, and even reach millions of yuan each year. "Electric fishing during the ban period will be punished, and even a certain number of sparrows will be punished. Earthworms have less effects on the ecological environment than fish and sparrows. It is strictly forbidden to catch earthworms to protect the ecology of farmland. Keep it before you can leave more fertile land for future generations! "Lao Liu sighed.

Procuratorate and promote relevant departments

Strictly check the electric caught earthworm

The prosecutor of the Lianshui County Procuratorate asked local agricultural experts to advice on the role of earthworms on the soil.

After a preliminary investigation, Xu Guijuan reported the relevant situation to the hospital. In April, the Lianshui County Procuratorate decided to carry out the protection of earthworms through the form of a public interest lawsuit.

The first thing the prosecutor thought was to file a civil public interest lawsuit. However, due to the large number of earthworms and the rapid reproduction, laws and regulations such as my country's Wildlife Protection Law and the Implementation of the Protection of Land Wildlife Protection did not take wild earthworm resources as the object of protection. The terrestrial wildlife with important ecology, scientific, and social values released by the State Council did not include earthworms in it. Therefore, the hospital's direct idea of claiming civil public interest litigation demanding damage compensation for the person who captured earthworms is currently not valid.

Xu Guijuan decided to take a different approach and promote the use of administrative public interest litigation to ban the use of administrative penalties to prohibit the capture of earthworms. “根据农业法中要求保护自然资源的规定，从保护动物多样性的角度出发，特别是考虑到动物对生态环境的重要作用，对蚯蚓的保护符合法理要求，也顺应生态保护需要。而且，在The use of electric shock devices in the field is dangerous for pedestrians who work in the fields or even passing by. According to the provisions of laws and regulations such as law and order management punishment, they should also be punished. "

From April 13th to 15th, the Lianshui County Procuratorate issued a prosecution proposal to the five local administrative regulatory authorities, and suggested that they strengthen inspections, crack down on electrical capture of earthworms through persuasion and confiscation tools, and obtain local administrative organs. Pay attention to. At the same time, the Lianshui County Procuratorate wrote a relevant report to report the situation to the superior procuratorate, the local people's congress and the CPPCC.

On May 12, the Lianshui County Government issued a special announcement that any unit or individuals from illegal capture, acquisition or processing of wild earthworms will be prohibited. Violators will investigate and deal with relevant administrative organs according to law and crime shall be investigated for criminal responsibility in accordance with the law.

After understanding the case, the Huai'an Procuratorate immediately organized special activities to conduct investigations throughout the city. At present, the Huaiyin District Procuratorate of Huai'an City has issued procuratorial suggestions to relevant units, suggesting that local administrative organs have strengthened management to strictly investigate illegal capture, acquisition, and processing wild earthworms.

A few days ago, Xu Guijuan and his colleagues came to Chen Shizhen again, and the breeze was blowing the golden wheat ears in the ground. "The wheat can be harvested in the past two days. During this time, the Public Security Bureau and the Agricultural Bureau took turns to check. In recent months, no one has been calling for earthworms. The procuratorate has really done a good thing for our grain households." For more than 500 acres of wheat land, Lao Liu was happy to like the prosecutor.
