Hōʻike ka noiʻi hou ʻana o ke Kulanui o Southern Cross e pili ana i ka holo ʻana o nā pesticide e hiki ke hoʻopili i nā pesticides i hoʻohana nui ʻia i ka ʻōpae a me ka ʻō.
Ua ʻike nā kānaka ʻepekema ma ka National Marine Science Center ma Coffs Harbor ma ke kahakai ʻĀkau o New South Wales e pili ana i ka imidacloprid (i ʻae ʻia no ka hoʻohana ʻana ma ke ʻano he insecticide, fungicide a me parasiticide ma Australia) hiki ke hoʻopilikia i ka hana hānai ʻōpae.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Kirsten Benkendorff (Kirsten Benkendorff) ka luna o ke kikowaena, no nā ʻano iʻa iʻa, hopohopo nui lākou i ka hopena o nā pesticides hiki ke hoʻoheheʻe i ka wai i ka ʻōpae.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia: "Ua pili pono lākou i nā iniseti, no laila ua manaʻo mākou he maʻalahi loa lākou i nā pesticides.ʻO kēia ka mea i loaʻa iā mākou. "
Ua hōʻike ʻia kahi haʻawina i hoʻopaʻa ʻia i ka lab e hiki ke alakaʻi i ka hemahema o ka meaʻai a me ka hōʻemi ʻana i ka maikaʻi o ka ʻiʻo o ka ʻeleʻele tiger prawn.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Polofesa Benkendorf: "ʻO ke kiʻekiʻe o ke kaiapuni a mākou i ʻike ai he kiʻekiʻe e like me 250 micrograms no ka lita, a ʻo ka hopena sublethal o ka ʻōpae a me ka ʻoʻo ma kahi o 1 a 5 micrograms no ka lita."
"Ua hoʻomaka ʻo Shrimp e make ma kahi ʻano kaiapuni ma kahi o 400 micrograms no ka lita.
"ʻO kēia ka mea a mākou i kapa ai ʻo LC50, he make lethal o 50. Makemake ʻoe i ka 50% o ka heluna kanaka e make ma laila."
Akā ua ʻike pū nā mea noiʻi i kahi noiʻi ʻē aʻe e hiki ke hoʻonāwaliwali i ka neonicotine i ka ʻōnaehana pale o Sydney oysters.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Polofesa Benkendorf: "No laila, ma nā haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa loa, ʻoi aku ka koʻikoʻi o ka hopena ma luna o ka ʻōpae, a ʻoi aku ke kūpaʻa o ka ʻoy ma mua o ka ʻōpae."
"Akā ua ʻike paha mākou i ka hopena o kā lākou ʻōnaehana pale, ʻo ia ka mea e maʻalahi lākou i ka maʻi."
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Polofesa Benkendorf: "Mai ka manaʻo e lawe lākou iā lākou mai ke kaiapuni, he mea pono kēia e nānā."
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia, ʻoiai e pono ana ka noiʻi hou ʻana, ua ʻike ʻia he mea pono e mālama pono i ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka pesticide a me ka holo ʻana ma nā wahi kahakai.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Tricia Beatty, ka luna nui o ka New South Wales Professional Fishermen Association, ua hoʻopilikia ka haʻawina a pono e hana koke ke aupuni o New South Wales.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia: "No nā makahiki he nui, ke ʻōlelo nei kā mākou ʻoihana e hopohopo nui nei mākou i ka hopena kemika o ke kahawai o ka ʻoihana."
"He $500 miliona kā mākou ʻoihana i ka ʻoihana ʻo New South Wales, akā ʻaʻole ʻo ia wale nō, ʻo mākou ka iwi kuamoʻo o nā kaiāulu kahakai.
"Pono ʻo Australia e noʻonoʻo pono i ka pāpā ʻana i nā kemika ma ʻEulopa a kope iā ia ma aneʻi."
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Ms. Beatty: “ʻAʻole wale ma nā crustaceans a me nā molluscs ʻē aʻe, akā ma ke kaulahao meaʻai holoʻokoʻa;ʻai nā ʻōpae he nui nā ʻano ʻano i loko o kā mākou estuary."
ʻO nā pesticides Neonicotinoid-i pāpā ʻia ma Farani a me EU mai 2018-ua loiloi ʻia e ka Australian Pesticide and Veterinary Drug Administration (APVMA).
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo APVMA ua hoʻomaka ʻo ia i ka loiloi ma 2019 ma hope o ka "loiloi ʻana i ka ʻike ʻepekema hou e pili ana i nā pōʻino o ke kaiapuni a me ka hōʻoia ʻana i nā koi palekana huahana e kū i nā kūlana o kēia manawa."
Manaʻo ʻia e hoʻopuka ʻia ka hoʻoholo hoʻokele manaʻo i ʻApelila 2021, a laila ma hope o ʻekolu mahina o ka kūkākūkā ʻana ma mua o ka hoʻoholo hope ʻana i ka kemika.
ʻOiai ke kuhikuhi nei nā mea noiʻi ʻo nā mea kanu berry kekahi o nā mea hoʻohana nui i ka imidacloprid ma kahakai o Coffs, ua pale ka piko o ka ʻoihana i kāna hoʻohana ʻana i kēia kemika.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Rachel Mackenzie, ka luna hoʻokele o ka Australian Berry Company, pono e ʻike ʻia ka hoʻohana nui ʻana o kēia kemika.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia: "Aia ma Baygon, a hiki i nā kānaka ke hoʻomalu i kā lākou ʻīlio me nā ʻauʻau.Hoʻohana nui ʻia ia no ka hoʻoponopono ʻana i ka termite hou;ʻaʻole kēia he pilikia nui."
“ʻO ka lua, ua mālama ʻia ka noiʻi ma ka hale hana ma lalo o nā kūlana lab.ʻIke loa, he mea mua loa lākou.
"E haʻalele mākou i ka ʻoiaʻiʻo o kēia ʻoihana berry a noʻonoʻo i ka ʻoiaʻiʻo o kēia huahana i ʻoi aku ma mua o 300 mau hoʻohana i hoʻopaʻa inoa ʻia ma Australia."
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Ms. Mackenzie e hoʻokō ʻo 100% ka ʻoihana i nā hopena loiloi a APVMA ma nā neonicotinoids.
