Ecotoxicological view of protection of apple orchards against insect pests in Poland
The paper presents some aspects of relations between modern plant
protection of apple orchards and ecotoxicology. Based on significant similarity
of the shape and size of apple and tomato fruits the relation between the doses of
active ingredients of plant protection products and their residue levels immediately
after treatment was derived for the apples and then quality indices and the risks
for human health were estimated. It was found that many of the currently in force
MRLs need to be revised and the exposure of consumer should not exceed the
acceptable daily intakes (ADIs) and acute reference doses (ARfDs) for pesticide
residues.
