Evaluating the Health and Ecological Risks of Toxic Elements in the Agricultural Soil of China using Traditional and Advanced Techniques: A One Health Approach

Agricultural soil quality is critical for sustainable food production, yet contamination by toxic elements (TEs) may pose ecological and human health risks. This study assessed the concentrations, ecological impacts, and potential health risks of five TEs (Cr, Cu, Cd, Pb, and Zn) in agricultural soils across China by...

Pesticide residues in animal feed: emerging risks for animal health and crop production

Pesticides are essential for maximizing crop yields and ensuring food security, yet concerns are growing about their accumulation in the food chain. While human dietary exposure has received considerable attention, pesticide residues in animal feed represent a critical, underexplored pathway that can affect livesto...

Phytosanitary practices, soil physicochemical quality patterns, and environmental risk assessment in pesticide-treated agricultural fields of Western Algeria.

Pesticides remain central to crop protection and agricultural productivity, but inappropriate application practices may increase environmental and occupational risks. This study provides an integrated assessment of phytosanitary practices, soil physicochemical quality patterns, and Tier 1 environmental risk in pesticid...

Ecological risk assessment of pesticide residues in diverse farming landscapes of central Zambia

Agricultural intensification in Zambia has led to widespread reliance on pesticides to safeguard crop yields, yet concerns about their ecological consequences remain insufficiently addressed. This study helps to fill this gap by evaluating the extent and ecological risks associated with pesticide contamination in soils...

Targeted pesticide screening and multi-matrix toxic-element monitoring in a highland vegetable production system of southern Lao PDR: implications for surveillance prioritization

Vegetable-production systems connect edible crops with cultivation soil and irrigation water, yet multi-matrix evidence from tropical highland production areas remains limited. This pilot study characterized targeted pesticide residues and potentially toxic elements across co-located crop–soil–water matrices at three m...
