Chronic toxicity of diazinon todaphnia magna:Effects on survival, reproduction and growth

1995

The sublethal effect of 0.15, 0.18, 0.22, 0.25 and 0.30 μg/L diazinon on the survival, reproduction and growth of D. magna was monitored for 21 days. Neonates (≤ 24 h) were obtained from the stock cultures and raised individually in 50 mL glass beakers. All daphnids were transfered every other day to a new beaker containing fresh medium, food and the appropriate pesticide concentration. The animals were maintained in an environmental chamber at 22±1°C on a 12L: 12D photoperiod and were fed daily on 5 x 105 cell/mL of the green algae Nannochloris oculata. The parameters used to determine the effect of the pesticide on reproduction were: mean total young per female, mean brood size, mean numb…

Assessment of occupational exposure to pesticides in Spain through a job-exposure matrix (MatEmESp, 1996-2005)

2014

Introducción: La exposición laboral a plaguicidas ha sido asociada a numerosos problemas de salud. Sin embargo, la información sobre la exposición de los trabajadores afectados en España es escasa y dispersa. Objetivos: El objetivo de este trabajo fue estimar el nivel y la prevalencia de la exposición laboral a plaguicidas en España para el periodo 1996-2005, como parte del proyecto de construcción de la matriz empleo-exposición española, MatEmESp. Métodos: El establecimiento de las ocupaciones expuestas, los agentes de referencia y las estimaciones de exposición se basó en información de otras matrices, datos de evaluaciones de riesgos en empresas españolas y revisión de la bibliografía. R…

Peut-on concilier un faible usage de pesticides, une bonne performance économique et environnementale ? Analyse d’un réseau national de fermes de dém…

2017

Feeding an increasing world population with a sustainable agriculture is one of the greatest challenges of this century. The reduction of the reliance on pesticides is a critical aspect in this quest for sustainability. Whether cropping systems with reduced reliance on pesticides would be able to reconcile the various components of sustainability remains however a matter of debate. Are they as productive and profitable than current mainstream cropping systems? Here the objective is to study the feasibility of a reduced reliance on pesticides in France. We used a unique dataset from a national network of more than thousand arable commercial farms between 2009 and 2011. Launched in the framew…

Analysing the relationship between yields and farmers' incomes to help the design of more sustainable cropping systems

2022

Farmers often grow only the few high-yielding crops in the area, and target maximum yields through high levels of inputs. These practices are based on the assumption of a positive relationship between productivity and profitability over a wide range of cropping systems (Woo et al., 2020; Erythrina et al., 2021). Part of the correlation between productivity and profitability could be related to differences in production situation and therefore yield potential, i.e. characteristics that do not depend on farmers’ decisions. For a given production situation, the systems with the highest profitability and the best environmental sustainability could be systems with moderate yields. The objective …

Assessment of pahs and selected pesticides in shallow groundwater in the highest protected areas in the Opole region, Poland

2014

The ground water quality was determined after the analyses of water samples from 18 wells. The wells were in the Groundwater Area with the Highest Protection (Triassic water, Opole region, Poland), rural build up. The water table level was low: 0.5 – 18.0 m below the ground surface level (except for one artesian well). The following parameters were determined: pH, EC, colour, ammonium, nitrite, nitrate, dissolved orthophosphate, total phosphorus, dissolved oxygen, BOD, COD-Mn, COD-Cr, humic substances, chloride, sulphate, total hardness, alkalinity, dry residue PAHs (16 compounds), pesticides (6 compounds), however, only selected data were presented in this paper. In all the analysed water …
