Abstrakt: The article presents information on the concentration of pesticides present in animal feed concentrate. It evaluates the magnitude of contamination of pesticide residues including organochloro, organophosphate and carbamate in animal feed concentrate samples collected from Karnal in Haryana, India, in light of changed consumption pattern of pesticides in India. It reports DDT in only two feed concentrate samples. This decline in levels could be attributed to ban of DDT in the agriculture sector since 1984. However, presence of organophosphate pesticide residues in animal feed concentrate could be due to major consumption of organophosphates in agriculture sector.
