The presence of pesticide residues in waterbed sediments poses a significant concern for aquatic ecosystems' health. This study examined contamination 38 water bodies, embedded agricultural-dominated regions, across eight European countries. Three indicators were targeted: occurrence, type, and concentrations multiple sediments. 196 (including degradation products) tested the sediment samples. analytical results showed that only one sample was 'pesticide-free', three samples contained single residue, remaining 34 mixtures residues. Overall, 99 different found sediments, with maximum 48 sample. Twenty-seven out detected not approved agricultural use at time sampling. numbers levels varied among AMPA, glyphosate DDTs most common frequencies 76, 61, 52%, respectively. from Czech Republic had highest concentrations, total ranging between 600 1200 μg kg

Apples are the third most produced fruit in world, but their production is often pesticide-intensive. Our objective was to identify options for pesticide reduction using farmer records from 2549 commercial apple fields Austria during five years between 2010 and 2016. Using generalized additive mixed modeling, we examined how use related farm management, varieties, meteorological parameters, it affected yields toxicity honeybees. Apple received 29.5 ± 8.6 (mean SD) applications per season at a rate of 56.7 22.7 kg ha-1, which included total 228 products with 80 active ingredients. Over years, fungicides accounted 71 % amounts applied, insecticides 15 %, herbicides 8 %. The frequently used were sulfur (52 %), followed by captan (16 %) dithianon (11 %). Of insecticides, paraffin oil (75 chlorpyrifos/chlorpyrifos-methyl (6 combined) used. Among herbicides, glyphosate (54 CPA (20 pendimethalin (12 Pesticide increased increasing frequency tillage fertilization, field size, spring temperatures, drier summer conditions. decreased number days maximum temperatures >30 °C warm, humid days. significantly positively heat days, warm nights, treatment frequency, not fertilization tillage.

The increasing consumption of phenoxyacetic acid-derived herbicides is becoming a major public health and environmental concern, posing serious challenge to existing conventional water treatment systems. Among the various physicochemical biological purification processes, adsorption considered one most efficient popular techniques due its high removal efficiency, ease operation, cost effectiveness. This review article provides extensive literature information on by adsorbents. purpose this organize scattered currently used adsorbents for herbicide from water, such as activated carbons, carbon silica adsorbents, metal oxides, numerous natural industrial waste materials known low-cost capacity these was compared two herbicides, 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) 2-methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetic (MCPA). application kinetic models isotherms in describing also presented discussed. At beginning paper, important has been collected, including their classification, properties, occurrence environment.

The honey bee is the most common and important managed pollinator of crops. In recent years, colonies faced high mortality for multiple causes, including land-use change use plant protection products (hereafter pesticides). This work aimed to explore how contamination by pesticides pollen collected bees was modulated landscape composition seasonality. We placed two in 13 locations Northern Italy contrasting landscapes, from which we samples monthly during whole flowering season 2019 2020. searched almost 400 compounds, fungicides, herbicides, insecticides, acaricides. then calculated each sample Pollen Hazard Quotient (PHQ), an index that provides a measure multi-residue toxicity contaminated pollen. Almost all were at least one compound. detected 97 mainly but insecticides acaricides showed highest toxicity. Fifteen % had medium-high or levels PHQ, could pose serious threats bees. Fungicides nearly constant PHQ throughout season, while herbicides higher values spring early summer. Also, increased with increasing cover agricultural urban areas April July, it low independent end season. perennial crops, i.e., fruit trees vineyards, not annual samples. Our highlighted potential complex interactions among pesticide category, seasonality, composition. Due large number compounds detected, our study should be complemented additional experimental research on interactive effects health.
