Here's an interesting fact of a golden snail Egg.

Dear steemit friends:

The golden snail is an animal with the Latin name Pomacea canaliculata lamarck. This type of snail is the one that belongs to a poisonous rice snail. In the 1980s the Indonesian people considered the golden snail to be a new source of protein food, which was easy to obtain and reached all levels of society at that time. But really unexpected, golden snail even bring serious problems to the farmers. Golden snail breed very rapidly. The golden snail feeds on young rice plants grown by farmers. In the end, many farmers fail to harvest. Not only in Indonesia alone, it turns out golden snail pests also occur in neighboring countries such as the Philippines, Vietnam, Thailand and other countries asean countries. We can describe the golden snail breeding cycle as follows.

A female golden snail can produce 15 groups of eggs in a single life cycle of about 60-80 days. Then each group contains 250-500 egg eggs. This is an incredible breeding. Where one adult golden snail tail can produce 1000-1200 eggs in one month.

Because of this, the farmers are overwhelmed by the golden snail pests are increasingly rampant. Farmers are doing a lot of ways to overcome the golden snail pest, starting from the direct memunggutnya of rice fields, use ducks to eat young snails, using toxic plants to use pesticides that have a bad impact for the rice plants themselves.
