An ecological-agrochemical evaluation and prognosis of pesticide aftereffects (in the case of Ukrainian and Moldavian SSRS).
From the total number of pesticides applied in the USSR, 18 are classified as being particularly dangerous compounds. Taking into account the self-purifying ability of the regional soils, arbitrary doses of these pesticides have been calculated for the administrative units of the Ukrainian SSR, the Moldavian SSR, and the water basin territories of the principal rivers in the region. This index is of greatest significance for arable and long-cultivated regions of the Crimea, Odessa, Kiev, Kherson, and Volynskiy, and for the Moldavian water basin territories of the Prut, the Dniester, and the Southern Bug.
