20、此前官方媒体报道称，西瓜被注射了一种名为膨大剂（化学名称为氯吡苯脲）的植物生长刺激素，这引发了对又一桩食品安全丑闻的担忧。“I dont know what I can eat after this watermelon explosion event,” said one user on Sinas microblog platform, which is Chinas biggest online comment forum.中国最大在线论坛新浪(Sina)微博平台上的一名用户说：“听到这个西瓜爆炸事件后，我不知道自己还能吃什么。”Watermelons are ubiquitous in

29、 and pesticides. “Chinese farmers, whose education levels are generally low, should be told when and how to use plant hormones, fertilizers and pesticide,” said Wang.尽管“爆炸瓜”或许不会成为新的三聚氰胺，但它们暴露出了中国农业面临的一个更大挑战：规范化肥和农药的使用。汪良驹表示：“中国农民教育水平普遍较低，应该告诉他们何时、以及如何使用植物生长调节剂、化肥与农药。”Most Chinese farms are small, fa

30、mily-run plots, and farmers often assume that more fertilizer, or more forchlorfenuron in this case, is always better.
