Özet:

Pesticides are derived from the Greek word pestis - pest, cido - to destroy, and are substances used to exterminate, repel or reduce plant pests or to act as plant growth regulators, as well as nitrogen stabilizers, plant defoliants, or desiccants. Pesticides are primarily used in agriculture, but about half of the 200 pesticides registered today are widely used by non-agricultural organizations such as hospitals, restaurants, and decontamination services. Pesticide misuse is a big problem not only in Mongolia but all over the world. When this toxic chemical is sprayed on crops, plants, and soil, it accumulates and is released back into the living organism through soil, air, and atmospheric degradation, resulting in poisoning and sickness.Pesticide levels in vegetables and food brought into Mongolia must be kept under strict monitoring.Furthermore, assessments of the types and applications of imported pesticides, as well as their residues in food, reveal the need for further detailed research into pesticide exposure and its negative consequences on human health in Mongolia.
