See you at 8 o'clock in the news, a little more insight. Meet you on time every morning at 8 o'clock in the morning and look out into the bigger world.

Once upon a time, Lao Tan sauerkraut instant noodles were a must-have food for many people to travel at home. The "soil pit sauerkraut" exposed at the 3.15 evening party this year made the former food giants fall off the altar, and even more let huarong, the "land of mustard greens", fall into the whirlpool of public opinion. Is there still a market for freshly pickled mustard? How to restore consumer confidence? All this is unknown to vegetable farmers.

Under the crisis, from the field to the factory workshop, rectification is underway, and 130,000 sauerkraut practitioners are undergoing a "transformation" to save themselves. Wang Shifeng, director of the Huarong County Vegetable Industry Development Center, said that in the future, the local mustard industry will achieve standardized production, but the biggest difficulty is to regain consumer confidence and restore the market, "This is a long-term process." ”

Wang Shifeng told the Beijing News reporter that all the sauerkraut produced by the mustard processing plant has no problem with the latest quality inspection. An inspection report obtained by a reporter from the Beijing News shows that the raw materials and various products of an enterprise involved have no quality problems after sampling by the provincial, municipal and county regulatory departments.

Although the local people have feelings for the pit, in Wang Shifeng's view, pit pickling is the method that entrepreneurs have come up with in the process of developing the mustard industry, from the perspective of industrialization, the pit is bound to be canceled, with the change of consumer concept, "before it could be accepted by the market, now it is not." ”

Jiang Shijun, a mustard farmer, said that he would supervise himself in the future, and he pointed to his chest, "Do your own thing with conscience." Read more >>>

The "pit sauerkraut" storm has brought the sauerkraut industry to a crossroads. Whether to adhere to the traditional production method and how to follow the development path of modern standardization is an important issue facing the sauerkraut industry.

Chen Gong, chief expert of agricultural products and food processing in Sichuan Province, pointed out in an exclusive interview with a reporter from the Beijing News that sauerkraut, as a food that has been passed down for thousands of years, lies in fermentation, whether it is traditional technology or standardized production, it is salted fermentation based on lactic acid bacteria, and there is no essential difference.

In his view, the use of traditional methods such as earth pits to make sauerkraut may have certain food safety risks, but it can improve food safety by using special altars, tanks, tanks or salting ponds, using mechanized operations, and fermenting with direct-throwing lactic acid bacteria, and can also achieve large-scale production. In Chen Gong's view, "modern production is also the inheritance of tradition. ”

Chen Gong said that the realization of mechanization and standardized production is the trend of the future development of the sauerkraut industry, and modernization should be increased to establish a traceable system from planting to fermentation to the table. Read the full >>>

Masks, nucleic acids, health treasures, a three-piece set of essentials for going out. In today's epidemic situation, it is difficult to do anything without it.

Under the epidemic situation, There are some new changes in Beijing's epidemic prevention requirements, which need to look at the health status and nucleic acid certificate. If you take your parents and children to a park near your home, and then find that your parents forgot to bring their mobile phones, they can't check the health treasure and nucleic acid, what can you do? Don't worry, Xiaobian supports you:

Although the holiday is coming, the epidemic prevention and control cannot be relaxed. In the face of the still severe epidemic situation, the 12 areas of Beijing will carry out three consecutive rounds of nucleic acid screening from May 3 to cut off the virus transmission chain to the greatest extent and prevent the further spread of the epidemic.

Pang Xinghuo, deputy director of the Beijing Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention, introduced that from 15:00 on May 1 to 15:00 on may 2, there were 50 new cases of local new crown pneumonia virus infection in the city, including 41 confirmed cases and 9 asymptomatic infected people; 17 cases in Fangshan District, 13 cases in Chaoyang District, 7 cases in Haidian District, 6 cases in Fengtai District, 4 cases in Tongzhou District, and 3 cases in Shijingshan District.

You may not have heard of Ecuador, but you will not be unfamiliar with the title of "Banana Country". Who would have thought that this seemingly beautiful country is a raging place for violent crime and drug smuggling. Even if the president uses his emergency powers to combat the crime wave, it will not fundamentally solve Ecuador's poverty and security problems.

On April 29, local time, Ecuadorian President Lasso declared a 60-day state of emergency in the three coastal provinces of Guayas, Esmeraldas and Manawi to combat the increasingly rampant violent crime of organized transnational drug trafficking.

In October 2021, Lasso declared a state of emergency throughout the country to combat crimes such as drug trafficking. The Ecuadorian armed forces and the national police entered the city streets to carry out patrols, searches and arms control.

The implementation of the initial state of emergency had some positive effects. The Lasso government said the state of emergency had reduced intentional homicides in and around Guayaquil, the provincial capital of the province of Guayas, by 22 per cent, and that in the first month of the emergency it had crushed 76 gangs, confiscated at least 16 tons of drugs and arrested nearly 7,000 people.

But in the long run, Reuters noted that Lasso's efforts have done little to change Ecuador. According to Ecuador's office of the president, as of mid-November 2021, the number of deaths from violence in Ecuador soared by 53 percent to more than 2,000.

Security analyst Daniel Ponton pointed out that the rising crime rate cannot be blamed solely on drug gangs, the COVID-19 pandemic has hit Ecuador's economy hard, exacerbated poverty, and previous governments have cut budgets in crime prevention and case investigations, which has also greatly weakened the government's ability to fight crime.

Faced with the problem of violent crime that has plagued Ecuador for many years, it is difficult to reach the heart of the problem by relying solely on the implementation of a state of emergency, raiding patrols, or difficulty in reaching the heart of the problem. Ponton pointed out that the government needs to introduce long-term public policies to effectively change the status quo in Ecuador. Read the full >>>
