Zipatso ndi ndiwo zamasamba zina zimakhala zosavuta kugwidwa ndi mankhwala ophera tizilombo komanso mankhwala ophera tizilombo, choncho ndikofunikira kwambiri kuzitsuka bwino musanadye.
Kutsuka ndiwo zamasamba zonse musanadye ndi njira yosavuta yochotsera dothi, mabakiteriya, ndi zotsaliramankhwala ophera tizilombo.
Masika ndi nthawi yabwino yotsitsimula malo anu ndi zizolowezi zanu. Mukamatsuka makabati anu ndikutsuka ma board anu, musaiwale kuyang'anira kabati yanu ya zokolola. Kaya mumagula zinthu m'sitolo yanu yogulitsa zakudya, kumsika wa alimi, kapena kuyitanitsa zokolola zatsopano kuti zibweretsedwe, lamulo lofunika kwambiri likugwirabe ntchito: tsukani zipatso ndi ndiwo zamasamba zanu.
Ngakhale zakudya zambiri zomwe zili m'masitolo ogulitsa zakudya zili bwino kudya, koma zingakhalebe ndi mankhwala ophera tizilombo, dothi, ndi mabakiteriya. Nkhani yabwino ndi yakuti, simuyenera kuchita mantha. Malinga ndi Dipatimenti ya Zaulimi ya US Department of Agriculture's Pesticide Data Program (PDF), zakudya zopitilira 99 peresenti zomwe zayesedwa zimakwaniritsa miyezo ya chitetezo ya US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), ndipo zoposa kotala imodzi zilibe zotsalira za mankhwala ophera tizilombo zomwe zingapezeke konse.
Komabe, monga gawo la kuchira kwanu kwa masika, kukhala ndi chizolowezi chotsuka zipatso zonse musanadye ndi njira yanzeru yopezera thanzi lanu komanso mtendere wamumtima.
Kunena zoona, mankhwala ena ndi mankhwala ophera tizilombo ndi otetezeka kuwasiya. Ndipo si mankhwala onse omwe ndi owopsa, choncho musachite mantha nthawi ina mukaiwala kutsuka zipatso ndi ndiwo zamasamba. Mudzakhala bwino, ndipo mwayi woti mudwale ndi wochepa kwambiri. Komabe, palinso mavuto ena oti mudandaule nawo, monga zoopsa za mabakiteriya ndi zilema monga salmonella, listeria, E. coli, ndi majeremusi ochokera m'manja mwa anthu ena.
Mitundu ina ya zokolola imakhala ndi zotsalira za mankhwala ophera tizilombo zomwe zimakhalapo nthawi zonse kuposa zina. Pofuna kuthandiza ogula kudziwa zipatso ndi ndiwo zamasamba zomwe zili ndi zotsalira zambiri za mankhwala ophera tizilombo, Environmental Working Group, bungwe lopanda phindu loteteza chakudya, lafalitsa mndandanda wotchedwa "Dirty Dozen." Gululi linafufuza zitsanzo 47,510 za mitundu 46 ya zipatso ndi ndiwo zamasamba zomwe zinayesedwa ndi US Food and Drug Administration ndi US Department of Agriculture, kupeza zomwe zinali ndi zotsalira zambiri za mankhwala ophera tizilombo panthawi yogulitsa.
Koma kodi ndi chipatso chiti, malinga ndi kafukufuku waposachedwa wa Dirty Dozen, chomwe chili ndi zotsalira zambiri za mankhwala ophera tizilombo? Strawberry. N'zovuta kukhulupirira, koma kuchuluka kwa mankhwala omwe amapezeka mu chipatso chodziwika bwinochi kunali kokwera kuposa zipatso zina zilizonse kapena ndiwo zamasamba zomwe zidawunikidwa.
Pansipa mupeza zakudya 12 zomwe zili ndi mankhwala ophera tizilombo komanso zakudya 15 zomwe sizili ndi kachilombo.
Dirty Dozen ndi chizindikiro chabwino kwambiri chokumbutsa ogula zipatso ndi ndiwo zamasamba zomwe zimafunika kutsukidwa bwino kwambiri. Ngakhale kutsuka mwachangu ndi madzi kapena kupopera sopo kungathandize.
Mukhozanso kupewa zoopsa zambiri zomwe zingachitike pogula zipatso ndi ndiwo zamasamba zovomerezeka zachilengedwe, zomwe zilibe mankhwala ophera tizilombo a zaulimi. Kudziwa zakudya zomwe zili ndi mankhwala ophera tizilombo kungakuthandizeni kusankha kugwiritsa ntchito ndalama zambiri pa zinthu zachilengedwe. Monga momwe ndinaphunzirira pamene ndinasanthula mitengo ya zinthu zachilengedwe ndi zinthu zopanda zachilengedwe, sizili zokwera kwambiri monga momwe mungaganizire.
Zinthu zokhala ndi zophimba zachilengedwe zoteteza sizingakhale ndi mankhwala ophera tizilombo omwe angakhale oopsa.
Clean 15 inali ndi kuchuluka kochepa kwambiri kwa kuipitsidwa kwa mankhwala ophera tizilombo poyerekeza ndi zitsanzo zonse zomwe zinayesedwa, koma sizikutanthauza kuti sizinaipitsidwe konse ndi mankhwala ophera tizilombo. Zachidziwikire, sizikutanthauza kuti zipatso ndi ndiwo zamasamba zomwe mumabweretsa kunyumba zilibe kuipitsidwa kwa mabakiteriya. Malinga ndi ziwerengero, ndi bwino kudya zakudya zosatsukidwa kuchokera ku Clean 15 kuposa kuchokera ku Dirty Dozen, koma ndi lamulo labwino kutsuka zipatso ndi ndiwo zamasamba zonse musanadye.
Njira ya EWG ikuphatikizapo zizindikiro zisanu ndi chimodzi za kuipitsidwa kwa mankhwala ophera tizilombo. Kusanthulaku kunayang'ana kwambiri zipatso ndi ndiwo zamasamba zomwe zinali ndi mankhwala ophera tizilombo amodzi kapena angapo, koma sikunayese kuchuluka kwa mankhwala ophera tizilombo m'zinthu zinazake. Mutha kuwerenga zambiri za lipoti la kafukufuku la Dirty Dozen mu lipoti la kafukufuku la EWG apa.
Mwa zitsanzo zoyesedwa zomwe zinafufuzidwa, Gulu Logwira Ntchito Zachilengedwe linapeza kuti 95 peresenti ya zitsanzo za zipatso ndi ndiwo zamasamba za "Dirty Dozen" zinali zophimbidwa ndi mankhwala ophera fungicide omwe angakhale oopsa. Kumbali ina, pafupifupi 65 peresenti ya zitsanzo za zipatso ndi ndiwo zamasamba za "Clean Fifteen" zinalibe mankhwala ophera fungicide.
Gulu Logwira Ntchito Zachilengedwe linapeza mitundu yosiyanasiyana ya mankhwala ophera tizilombo pofufuza zitsanzo zoyesera ndipo linapeza kuti anayi mwa asanu mwa mankhwala ophera tizilombo odziwika bwino anali mankhwala ophera tizilombo oopsa: fludioxonil, pyraclostrobin, boscalid ndi pyrimethanil.
