Herbicidas no alto rio Poxim, Sergipe e os riscos de contaminação dos recursos hídricos

Abstract: Resumo -A crescente atividade agrícola em áreas de mananciais tem causado preocupações quanto à contaminação por herbicidas em áreas agrícolas. O problema se torna mais importante quando a contaminação pode afetar a água para uso humano, como ocorre com a água do Rio Poxim, que abastece a cidade de Aracaju, capital do Estado de Sergipe. O objetivo do estudo foi avaliar o risco de contaminação de águas superficiais e subterrâneas por herbicidas no alto da Sub-bacia do Rio Poxim e detectar a presença dos princíp… Show more

“…Consequently, their residues were found along all the collection points, from IP01 to IP08. Similar results were reported by Britto et al (2012), who observed the presence of Diuron and Ametryn in the water from the Poxim River, Sergipe, at levels that varied from 0.03 to 0.9 and 0.03 to 0.5 µg L -1 , respectively. Muendo et al (2012) also investigated the presence of herbicides in areas of sugarcane cultivation bordered by the Kuywa River, in Kenya, and observed Diuron levels varying from 0.44 to 1.75 µg L -1 .…”

“…The use of pesticides, especially herbicides, has been promoting environmental and food contamination, people poisoning and problems associated with agricultural practices such as intoxication of further crops and emergence of herbicide-resistant weeds (BRITTO et al, 2012;NEVES;BELINI, 2013). Even so, literature reports concerning biodiversity impacts on surrounding areas are still scarce, especially on wind-drifted agrochemicals.…”

“…Glyphosate residues have been found in surface waters (Dores & Freire, 2001;Silva et al, 2003;Queiroz et al, 2011), in groundwater (Sakaliene et al, 2007;Andrade et al, 2011;Britto et al, 2011), and in soil Souza et al, 2006).…”
