| Description |
An average of 55,000 t of pesticides (including or organochlorine compounds) are used every year in India for agricultural purposes. The cumulative effects of these pesticides on the coastal environment can be expected to be considerable as is evident from their accumulation in the marine organism. Few data on the residue levels of various organochlorine pesticides in the seas around India are available. However, the residue levels of different organochlorine pesticides in the sediments from the Arabian Sea along the west coast of India is Dieldrin Aldrin HCH DDT.
