【 摘 要 】

Ukraine ratified the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) in 2001, and is now a party to this Convention. First, 12 POPs were introduced into the annexes to the Convention, nine of which are pesticides, and today the list includes 21 highly hazardous chemicals, posing a global threat to human health and the environment. Since POPs accumulate precisely in the fatty tissues of living organisms, people, as representatives of the upper stages of the food chain, are most vulnerable to the effects of POPs. The purpose of the research was to provide scientific substantiation of the agroecological assessment of soil contamination and components of the trophic chains by persistent organic pollutants. The research was conducted based on the Department of Ecotoxicology of the Institute of Agroecology and Nature Management of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. Field experiments were carried out during 2012-2014 in the territories around non-operational warehouses of pesticides and on agricultural land located around the non-operational warehouses of poison chemicals located within the farms of Intergroinvest LLC Stavishchensky District and TzdV Shamraievsky Sugar Plant in the Skvirsky District of the Kyiv Oblast.
