Problems and Background
World’s population increase
1997 ~ 5.8 Billion
2030 ~ 8.4 Billion
Lack of foods
Green Revolution
“The Green Revolution is a process of
technological development of a techniques
that began in Mexico in 1944 and has
since spread throughout the world”
Technology
Hybrid strains
Agricultural techniques
• Chemical fertilizers
• Irrigation
• Heavy machinery
• Pesticides
What is pesticides?
“A substance or mixture of substances
intended for preventing, destroying,
repelling, or mitigating any pest. Also,
any substance or mixture of substances
intended to regulate plant or leaf growth”

Problems of pesticide use in Thailand
2. Rapid increase of pesticide use
– Fruit and vegetable crops have been
extensively produced.
– The government’s reduction of the import
duty of pesticides from 5% to 0% in
1992
– DOAE provided farmers with free pesticides
Problems of pesticide use in Thailand
3. Inefficient use
– Lack of knowledge
– Misuse of application
• Over recommended dose spray
• “Cocktail” spray

What is the environment?
Sources of pesticide contamination
Sensitive areas
Pesticide movement in the environment
Harmful effects on non-target plants and animals
Effects on aquatic ecosystems
Effects on soil ecosystems
What is the environment?
“The environment is everything around us. It includes
not only the natural elements that the word
"environment" most often brings to mind, but also
people and the manmade components of our world.
The environment is not limited to the outdoors -- it
also includes the indoor areas where we live and
work”
Sources of pesticide contamination
• Point source contamination
• Non-point source contamination
Sensitive areas
• Sensitive areas are sites or living things that are easily injured by a
pesticide
• Sensitive areas outdoors include:
• areas where ground water is near the surface or easily accessed
(wells, sinkholes, porous soil, etc.);
• areas in or near surface water;
• areas near schools, playgrounds, hospitals, and other institutions;
• areas near the habitats of endangered species;
• areas near apiaries (honeybee sites), wildlife refuges, or parks; and
• areas near ornamental gardens, food or feed crops, or other
sensitive plantings
Sensitive areas
• Sensitive areas indoors include:
– areas where people -- especially children, pregnant women,
the elderly, or the sick -- live, work, or are cared for;
– areas where food or feed is processed, prepared, stored, or
served;
– areas where domestic or confined animals live, eat, or are
otherwise cared for; and
– areas where ornamental or other sensitive plantings are
grown or maintained.
Pesticide movement in the environment
Pesticide movement in the environment
• In air, through wind or through air currents generated by
ventilation systems,
• In water, through runoff or leaching,
• On or in objects, plants, or animals (including humans)
that move or are moved offsite.
Harmful effects on non-target organisms
• Non-target organism: Any plant or animal other than the
pest that is being controlled
• Two ways of harmful effects
– the pesticide may cause injury by contacting the nontarget
organism directly, or
– the pesticide may leave a residue that causes later injuries

Sources and roles of water
How pesticides enter surface and ground water?
How pesticides influence aquatic animals?
Factors affecting pesticide toxicity to aquatic
animals
• How to reduce pesticide risks in aquatic systems?
Sources of water in the world
• ~ 1.7 % of all of Earth's water is
ground water
• about 30.1 % of freshwater on Earth
occurs as ground water
• about 5,614,000 cubic miles (mi3),
or 23,400,000 cubic kilometers
(km3), of ground water exist on
Earth
• About 54 percent is saline, about 46
percent, being freshwater.
Roles of water
– Industrial utilization
– Household utilization
– Drinking water
How pesticides enter water?
• Surface runoff
• Leaching
• Erosion

How pesticides influence aquatic
animals?
• Lethal effects
• Sublethal effects
• Habitat alteration
-reduce the availability of plants
and insects that serve as habitat and food for
fish and other aquatic animals
-Fish behaviour
-Weight loss
-Impaired reproduction
-Inability to avoid predator
-lowered tolerance to
extreme temperatures
Factors affecting pesticide toxicity to
aquatic animals

Toxicity values

Persistence
LD50 or LC50
The length of time the animal
is in contact with the pesticide

How to reduce pesticide risks in
aquatic systems
Guidelines to help safeguard water sources
– The site
– Planning
– Mixing and loading
– Application
– Storage
– Disposal

Effects of pesticide on soils
• Role of organisms in soils
• Effect of pesticides on soil microbial population
• Effect of pesticides on nitrification
Role of organisms in soil
• Many organisms living in soils
– bacteria
– fungi
– nematodes
– arthropods
– crustaceans
– earthworms
Degradation of
• plant and animal residues
• other organic matter
• nitrogen fixation
• nitrification
• release of nutrients from soil

population
How pesticides affect microbial population?
• Reduction in population (long term effect)
– atrazine bacteria and fungi reduction (Canada)
– methamidophos
bacteria (China)
– monocrotophos, carbaryl and methomyl
bacteria & fungi (Egypt)
Effect of pesticides on nitrification
What is nitrification?
• Nitrification or 'ammonium oxidation' is a two-step
respiratory process occurring in sediment (benthic
nitrification) or the water column (pelagic
nitrification) in which bacteria oxidise ammonium
(NH4) to nitrite (NO2) and nitrate (NO3)
• Nitosomonous spp. and Nitrobacter spp. are the main
organisms responsible for nitrification process
Effect of pesticides on nitrification
• Reduction in nitrification process (long term effect)
– atrazine nitrification reduction (Canada)
– methamidophos and dimethoate
Nitrification reduction (China)
