“…These results indicate that these frequently detected pesticides are widely used in China for fruit planting. Our results are consistent with previous studies in China and other countries (Quijano et al, 2016;Li et al, 2018;Bibi et al, 2022). The remaining undetected pesticides are not shown in Table 1.…”

Miaoxi yellow peach, lanxi loquat, qingyuan sweet spring tangelo and haining pear are characteristic fruits in Zhejiang Province, China. This study investigated the levels of pesticides in these fruits in Zhengjiang Province, China, along with the associated risk of dietary exposure for consumer. In total, 25 pesticides were detected in the 68 samples. The pesticide detection rate of the samples was 95.59%, and the level of prochloraz in a pear sample was found to be higher than the maximum residue limit (MRL) in China. Overall, the pesticide residues were very low, and residue levels ranged from 0.001 to 1.06 mg/kg, of which 80.88% simultaneously occurred with 2–8 mixed residues. Acetamiprid (54.55%), carbendazim (64.71%), prochloraz (94.74%) and pyraclostrobin (85.71%) had the highest detection rate in the four fruits, respectively. A risk assessment of human exposure to pesticides via the intake of the four fruit types was performed, and the chronic intake risk (HQc) and acute intake risk (HQa) of a single pesticide and the hazard index (HI) of the mixture of pesticides for adults and children from the four fruit types were found to be less than 1, the exposure assessment showed that the levels of pesticides in the four fruit types were safe for human consumption. In addition, the quality of the four fruit types was analyzed and found to be not stable enough. We suggest strengthening standardized planting and management technology to improve product quality and safety, in particular, cultivators should use pesticides reasonably and control the pre-harvest interval (PHI) in order to better protect consumer health.

Routine programme for monitoring and evaluation involves data gathering, analysis and reporting to ensure progress and ultimately achievement of project goals. This study determined the influence of routine programme for monitoring and evaluation on sub-national water services in Nyamira South Sub County, Kenya. A mixed method, cross-sectional and correlational design was used. Study findings were generated using quantitative interviews from a total of 480 household heads; and staff from the local water services company. Qualitative information was generated from discussions with 40 village elders. The study established that provision of water services in the study area was not sustainable, with only about 23 percent of households accessing water services. The study findings also revealed poor monitoring of the water services. However, the findings demonstrated a linear, positive, and significant association between routine programme for monitoring and evaluation and sustainability of water services. The Pearson correlation coefficient was 0.724 and p-values were 0.000 for both correlation and regression analyses. The findings support the strengthening of routine programme for monitoring and evaluation as a way of reinforcing the long-term management of water resources at sub-national level.

“…Kinnow Mandarins are available at very affordable rates in Pakistan during their season and are consumed in much higher amounts, thus increasing the chances of acute exposure risks to the pesticides they are treated with.The availability of appropriate and well-planned monitoring data at national level plays a pivotal role in enhancing the accuracy of realistic estimations of the health implications, associated with consumption-based exposure to pesticides. Bibi et al (2022), have reported residues of pesticides belonging to different chemical groups, in multiple ready-to-export samples collected from the citrus fruits processing units. Such levels of multi-class pesticides may pose an alarming threat to the country's one of the most important exportable commodities.…”

“…It is noteworthy that during the post-harvest processing, only two fungicides i.e. imazalil and thiabendazole are nationally, as well as, internationally recommended and have been widely applied to citrus fruits (Bibi et al, 2022). The occurrence of residues of pesticides other than imazalil and thiabendazole, clearly indicate that those pesticides may have applied on-farm i.e.…”

Citrus fruits may serve as potential dietary exposure pathways to toxic levels of pesticides, with which they are treated. For possible protection of the consumers, pesticide residues in citrus fruits need strict and regular monitoring. This study aimed at investigating the pesticide residues status of the raw/fresh citrus fruits i.e. Kinnow Mandarin, along with evaluating exposure risks from the detected pesticides through Kinnow Mandarin consumption. Overall, 22.5% of the samples were non-complaint to the CAC-MRLs (Codex Alimentarius Commission’s established maximum residue limits) and 77.5% were exceeding the MRLs set by EU (European Union). Bifenthrin, with highest detection rate (53%), is a registered pyrethroid acaricide/insecticide for use on citrus fruits and is among the potential endocrine disrupting substances. The estimated acute/short-term (%aRfD) and chronic/long-term (%ADI) exposure values were in the range of 0.12–29.12% and 0.001–1.186%, respectively, not exceeding the hazard limit of 100% in any case. The cumulative toxicity evaluation performed for the detected neurotoxic pesticides belonging to pyrethroid, organophosphate and neonicotinoid group, indicated low potential long-term health risks from citrus fruits consumption. The results of the health risks’ estimations denote citrus fruits consumption a safer option for its consumers.
