Abstract

The paper presented reflects the results of a long term monitoring of the levels of persistent organic pollutants that are qualified in the Stockholm Convention (2001) as highly toxic, as well as nitrogen compounds in agricultural products. The results of routine tests carried out according to standard procedures do not denote an extreme level of contamination by pesticides; however the degree of pollution detected does not admit termination of the process of monitoring of these pollutants in the future since the absence of impact on the current health of population is has not been proved. It appears that solving the problem of exposure to persistent organic pollutants in the future will be directly related to ensuring the security of agricultural products because the exposure to 90% of the investigated pollutants occurs through the food. The paper concludes by presenting recommendations on limiting the exposure to the most dangerous nitrogen compounds.
