Abstract

Turkey is a rich country in terms of seas and inland wa­ter sources. The aquatic ecosystems in Turkey are threatened by the agricultural activities and pesticide contamination.  In parallel to the world, the use of pes­ticides began in the 1940s in Turkey. In the beginning of 1970’s some pesticides have prohibited by reason of their accumulation to environment and food chains, toxic effects on non-target organisms. Pesticides can easily be included to the food chain in the aquatic envi­ronment which causes many risks on human health and food safety. There are still not enough data on the con­centrations of pesticides in seafood and fish in Turkey.
