Monitoring data as provided by Ministry of Agriculture in
Ukraine
as well as by Institute of
Agroecology and Biotechnology:
Our preliminary results
showed decreasing pesticides and nitrates pollution levels both in soil and food (other forms of nitrogen substancies are not dangerous when are in
soils due to microbiological activity).
But there are some
specific features for the decreasing processes:
- low intensity of decreasing of nitrates in
soils are detected
- sometimes (depends from region of Ukraine)
increasing of nitrates amounts in surface and drinking waters
are observed (the same time using of mineral fertilizers are
crucially decreased)
- arising of very stable chlorine-organic
substancies derived from pesticides or increased levels were
detected.
