SummaryA study conducted at Ibadan, Nigeria, showed that some community water supplies were slightly polluted by the pesticides applied on adjacent farms. There was also evidence of soil degradation as a result of agrochemical use, with differences in the physico-chemical properties of soils in fields where agrochemicals had been applied and in adjacent fields that had not been cultivated. Measures that can be taken to minimize some of the environmental dangers inherent in the application of agrochemicals are discussed.
