Agricultural contamination

2022
Agricultural contamination caused by the use of animal manure and mineral fertilizers to fertilize crops. Furthermore, other sources of soil nutrients - seeds, seedlings, unharvested crops - make up a very small part of the pollution balance. The use of fertilizers and pesticides in agriculture practice has the most significant impact on soil and water

Cadmium contamination in agriculture and zootechnology

Experientia, 1984
Fortunately, acute Cd toxicity caused by food consumption is rare, but chronic exposure to significant Cd levels in food (and specially in plant materials) may be more frequent. It could significantly increase the accumulation of this heavy metal in certain body organs of man or animals (kidney, liver, etc.).

Agriculture in Fukushima: Radiocesium Contamination of Agricultural Products

2019
In this study, we examine the radioactivity monitoring data derived from Fukushima prefecture. The Japanese government has established very strict limits for radiocesium in food since April 2012 (100 Bq/kg for general food). The Fukushima prefectural government inspected foods and found that most of the agricultural products in Fukushima did not ...

Contaminated Wounds: Fresh Water, Salt Water, and Agricultural Contamination

Current Trauma Reports, 2018
This review focuses on the appropriate management of contaminated wounds sustained in the freshwater, saltwater, and agricultural settings. While these wounds can be associated with polymicrobial pathogens and infections, Aeromonas spp. and Mycobacterium marinum are commonly seen in fresh water wounds, while Vibrio vulnificus is a common pathogen in ...

Groundwater recharge and agricultural contamination

Hydrogeology Journal, 2002
Agriculture has had direct and indirect effects on the rates and compositions of groundwater recharge and aquifer biogeochemistry. Direct effects include dis- solution and transport of excess quantities of fertilizers and associated materials and hydrologic alterations relat- ed to irrigation and drainage.

Reclamation of Cr-contaminated or Cu-contaminated agricultural soils using sunflower and chelants

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2017
Chromium (Cr) and copper (Cu) are pollutants with a strong environmental impact. "Green biotechnology" as phytoremediation represents a sustainability opportunity for soil reclamation. In this study, we evaluated the possibility to reclaim agricultural soils located in the Solofrana valley, contaminated by Cr or Cu.
