Toxicity and Hazard of Agrochemicals

This chapter provides insights into the difficulties and challenges of performing risk evaluations of agrochemicals. It is a critical review of the current methodologies used in ecological risk assessment of these chemicals, not their risks to humans. After an introduction to the topic, the current framework for ecological risk assessment is outlined. Two types of assessments are typically carried out depending on the purpose: i) regulatory assessments for registration of a chemical product; and ii) ecological assessments, for the protection of both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, which are usually site-specific. Although the general framework is well established, the methodologies used in each of the steps of the assessment are fraught with a number of shortcomings. Notwithstanding the subjectivity implicit in the evaluation of risks, there is scepticism in scientific circles about the appropriateness of the current methodologies because, after so many years of evaluations, we are still incapable of foreseeing the negative consequences that some agrochemicals have in the environment. A critical appraisal of such methodologies is imperative if we are to improve the current assessment process and fix the problems we face today. The chapter reviews first the toxicity assessment methods, pointing to the gaps in knowledge about this essential part of the process and suggesting avenues for further improvement. Deficiencies in the current regulations regarding toxicity testing are discussed, in particular the effect of the time factor on toxicity and the issue of complex mixtures.

“…A reasonable, conservative default airborne concentration of vapour drift for semi-volatile substances is 1 mg/m 3 (Siebers et al, 2003). This value was derived from a study conducted in Germany involving measurements of airborne vapour drift of several active substances following application at the same rate with field ground-boom sprayers.…”

Guidance for Exposure and Risk Evaluation for Bystanders and Residents exposed to Plant Protection Products during and after Application

Plant protection products are applied in agriculture and horticulture in areas that may be accessible to the public. This means that individuals might be exposed who are not actively involved in the application of these products. The individual may be temporarily located in the vicinity of the application (the so-called 'bystander') or working or living in the vicinity of the application (the so-called 'resident'). In this guidance paper scenarios for the evaluation of exposure associated with plant protection product application for bystanders and for residents (including children) are described.Zusammenfassung: Pflanzenschutzmittel werden in der Landwirtschaft und im Gartenbau normalerweise auf direkt öffentlich zugänglichem Gelände oder unmittelbar benachbart dazu angewendet. Dadurch kann es potentiell zur Exposition von Personen kommen, die an der Ausbringung nicht aktiv beteiligt sind. Diese Personen können sich temporär in der Umgebung der zu behandelnden Fläche aufhalten (die sogenannten 'Nebenstehenden') oder sie arbeiten oder wohnen in der Umgebung der zu behandelnden Fläche (die sogenannten 'Anwohner'). In diesem Artikel werden Szenarien für die Abschätzung der Exposition, die mit der Anwendung von Pflanzenschutzmitteln verbunden ist, für Nebenstehende und für Anwohner (einschließlich Kinder) beschrieben.
