Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate the economics and toxicological aspects of pesticide management practices for sustainable chickpea production. The results of this study demonstrated that the average usage of pesticides is 877.30 g per hectare as an active ingredient in the chickpea growing. The average usages per hectare of active ingredient of insecticides, fungicides, and herbicides were calculated to be 1.50 g, 638.80 g, and 237.00 g, respectively. Fungicides are the biggest pesticide group used with 72.81% of total weight of active ingredients. It was calculated that the crop protection cost was EUR 75.65 per hectare, having the portion of 12 % of average production cost. The study revealed that the most common pesticides used by the farmers in chickpea growing were moderately hazardous and non-acute hazard categories. Based on the results of this study, it is suggested that the government should carry out effective agro-environmental intervention policies and farmer extension programs should be aimed at balancing the amounts of pesticides used per hectare for the sustainable, dynamic environment and prevention of pesticide toxicity. Keywords: chickpea, pesticide practices, economic, toxicological, Turkey

农药管理实践的经济和毒理学方面:来自土耳其的经验证据
本研究的目的是评价可持续鹰嘴豆生产的农药管理措施的经济学和毒理学方面。研究结果表明,鹰嘴豆种植中农药的平均使用量为每公顷877.30 g,是一种有效成分。杀虫剂、杀菌剂和除草剂每公顷有效成分的平均使用量分别为1.50 g、638.80 g和237.00 g。杀菌剂用量最大,占有效成分总重量的72.81%。经计算,作物保护成本为每公顷75.65欧元,占平均生产成本的12%。研究表明,农民在鹰嘴豆种植中最常用的农药是中度危害和非急性危害类别。根据研究结果,建议政府应采取有效的农业环境干预政策和农民推广计划,以平衡每公顷农药用量为目标,实现可持续的动态环境和预防农药毒性。关键词:鹰嘴豆,农药,经济,毒理学,土耳其
