DISTRIBUTION OF SOME PESTICIDE RESIDUES IN THE VEGETABLE AND FRUIT SAMPLES COLLECTED FROM KONYA LOCAL BAZAARS IN TURKEY
Abstract
Different kinds of pesticide are used for protection of plant from different pests which are bacteria, insects, fungi, nematotes, worm’s etc. Generally they give some advantage farmers’ plant production, but they also have some important disadvantage with their residues on plant materials. Farmers mostly apply pesticides higher than the needed levels to quarantive the higher production. They sometime use the pesticides later than deformation period. This time some residue chemicals may still be on the application surface. Literature investigations showed that low concentration of pesticides have hazardous effect on human health. These compound may affect acute or chronically with increasing levels in some tissue of the body. Some of pesticide residues were found in fish samples which the pesticide were used during The Second World War. They could increase with usage of these compound by the non-control applications in the soil and food chain. In our study, 9 vegetables and 5 fruits sample were collected from the local bazaar of Konya city centre in Turkey. Konya is very important place for farm products in Turkey. This investigation is still continuing and more results will be found during product period of 2006.
