Abstract

Agricultural products particularly fruits and vegetables are being sprayed frequently without considering the detrimental consequences of pesticides. Some farmers even do not observe the "No Harvest" period between the spraying and harvesting time. In farms for the control of pests, diazinon (60% EC), imidacloprid (35% SC), primicarb (50% WP) and acetamiprid (20% SP) are used. The aim of the present study was to assess the residual contents of four pesticides: diazinon, imidacloprid, primicarb and acetamiprid in crops( potato (Solanum tuberosum)) .The pesticides were applied on the above yields in a setting stage. Samples were taken daily, acetonitrile extracted, cleaned up using a silica gel column and residual contents of diazinon, imidacloprid, primicarb and acetamiprid were analyzed using a Liquid chromatography it an DAD detector (HPLC-DAD). The present results indicated that: imidacloprid and pirimicarb were found to be more persistent in potato var.chili compared to other two tested pesticides; data also reported that the lowest residue level of
