Contact us Pesticides Pesticides are substances used to prevent, destroy, repel or mitigate any pest ranging from insects, animals and weeds to microorganisms such as fungi, molds, bacteria and viruses. Pesticides may be toxic and harmful to the environment and to people if they are used improperly. At the same time, they help to manage and prevent pests that spread disease, that damage crops, buildings, and other property, and that are a public nuisance. The lead state agency for regulating pesticides is the Minnesota Department of Agriculture (MDA). The Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) consults with the MDA, federal environmental and health agencies, and others to: Provide information to the public about pesticide health risks; Develop health-based standards and/or advisory levels for pesticides and other contaminants in groundwater and air; Provide consultation to the Minnesota Department of Agriculture about pesticide health risks, and health risk assessment guidance/policy; and

Cadmium, Mercury, Pesticides: Environmental Chemicals of Concern ATLANTA, Georgia , July 22, 2005 (ENS) - A decline in exposure to secondhand smoke and continued decreases in children’s blood lead levels represent the good news from a new report on human exposure to environmental chemicals by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). But chemicals such as cadmium, mercury and insecticides were found in the bodies of test subjects at levels that could be causing health problems, agency officials said. National reports on human exposure to environmental chemicals have been issued by the CDC every two years since 1999. For this year’s report, issued Thursday, CDC’s Environmental Health Laboratory measured 148 chemicals or their breakdown products in blood or urine. Of the chemicals tested, 38 have never been measured before in the U.S. population. Dr. Julie Gerberding is director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta.

Environment Pesticides protect the environment by allowing farmers to produce more food on less land. Since 1950 alone, farmers have doubled the world's food supply without increasing the acreage farmed. Without pesticides, new land would have been brought into production at a tremendous cost to natural resources and wildlife habitat. As the world's population rapidly expands, forecasters believe our global ability to produce food will have to triple to meet a world population of 10 billion by 2050. Where will this extra food come from? There are two options: cultivate more land, severely reducing wildlife habitat; or find new ways of increasing yields on existing farmlands using crop protection technology. Today's pesticides are generally less toxic to people, animals and other non-target species. Many products target specific pests and have low use rates, making them more environmentally friendly. In fact, use rates have been reduced from litres or kilograms per hectare to grams or millilitres per hectare. Many crop protection products completely biodegrade within days after application. Pesticide contamination of surface ground water is not an issue in Canada or the United States. The U.S. Geological Society completed a five-year study of wells throughout the country and calculated that 99.9% of tested wells met government standards. Canadian statistics support these findings.

Back to MIS module Legal And Regulatory Framework Ghana has laws and decrees that provide a comprehensive legal and regulatory framework concerning the importation, official approval, transportation, sale, storage and use of CPPs. The main laws governing the sector are: Act 528 of 1996 "Pesticides Control and Management Act" , that defines pesticide approval procedures, and registration procedures for importers and distributors. Some important aspects of the 1997 amendment are in the areas of certification and approval. With regard to certification (renewable every 5 years), the requirements were clarified. Furthermore, the amendment allows for the issuance of a 3-year temporary importation permit pending full certification. With regard to approval, the amendment outlined the procedures and conditions for obtaining the approval based on the type of activities of the applicant (importer, formulator/producer, wholesaler/distributor, specialized haulage transporter, public sector operator). Approvals are valid for a year and are renewable.

It requires understanding of the greenhouse as an entire unit, an ecosystem unto itself. This ecosystem must be kept in balance. Temperature, relative humidity, and both pest and biocontrol agent populations must all be monitored. Strict sanitation must be maintained. If one component becomes unbalanced, the rest of the system suffers. Careful records of these components will help the manager correct small problems before they damage the balance in the greenhouse. Maintaining this balance is the key to successful IPM programs.

Churchill, Canada Modern society has developed an extensive array of synthetic chemicals over the last several decades - chemicals to control disease, increase food production, and to provide convenience in our daily lives. Ironically, many of these well-intentioned chemicals are now wreaking havoc around the world, threatening the health of wildlife and people. As WWF tracks the growing body of scientific research on chemical contamination and the effects of exposure, a sobering picture emerges. Wherever scientists look - the tropics, marine systems, industrial regions, the Arctic - they find the effects of toxic chemicals. Wildlife, people and entire ecosystems are threatened by chemicals that can alter sexual and neurological development, impair reproduction, and undermine immune systems. Today there is unequivocal evidence that a number of widely distributed synthetic chemicals have already caused serious damage to the health of wildlife and people and pose an ongoing danger. Wildlife as diverse as polar bears, whales, frogs, eagles, and fish are contaminated with pesticides and industrial chemicals. Many scientists have concluded that synthetic chemicals have damaged wildlife populations by causing decreased fertility, thyroid dysfunction, behavioral abnormalities, decreased hatching success, and feminization and demasculinization in males.
