description Introduction. Pesticides are used to control pests and diseases in agricultural activities. Improper management of these products poses a potential risk to human health and the environment. Objective. To evaluate the (eco)toxicological pressure exerted by synthetic pesticides on tobacco crops (Nicotiana tabacum) in the province of Sancti Spíritus, Cuba. Materials and methods. A database from the Provincial Directorate of Plant Health for the period 2016-2019 was used, where the pesticides assigned to the province for this crop were compared with those reported by interviewed farmers. The dual indicator POCER was used to obtain the results, determining the pressure exerted by different pesticides and their harmful reference on humans and the environment. Results. The trend in pesticide consumption (summarized in tables and graphs) showed 50 % decrease, corresponding to the country’s crop protection policy. Farmers mentioned the use of authorized and unauthorized active ingredients in the conducted surveys, and sixteen high-risk active ingredients were detected in the analyzed samples. Evaluating the POCER results and analyzed samples, a significant (eco)toxicological pressure was observed on both the environment and human health, exerted by a group of high-toxicity active ingredients used in tobacco cultivation in the province. Conclusion. Using the dual indicator POCER provides an evaluation of the (eco)toxicological pressure exerted by synthetic pesticides used in the tobacco cultivation (Nicotiana tabacum) in the province of Sancti Spíritus, Cuba, for the study period.

Los plaguicidas son utilizados para controlar las plagas y enfermedades en las actividades agrícolas. El manejo inadecuado de estos productos constituye un riesgo potencial para la salud humana y el medio ambiente. Objetivo. Evaluar la presión toxicológica (eco) ejercida por los plaguicidas sintéticos en los cultivos de tabaco (Nicotiana tabacum) en la provincia de Sancti Spíritus, Cuba. Materiales y métodos. Se utilizó una base de datos de la Dirección Provincial de Sanidad Vegetal para el período 2016-2019, donde se tomaron los plaguicidas asignados a la provincia para este cultivo y se compararon con los declarados por los agricultores entrevistados. Para la obtención de los resultados se utilizó el indicador dual POCER, que determinó la presión ejercida por los diferentes plaguicidas y su referencia nociva sobre el ser humano y el medio ambiente. Resultados. La tendencia del consumo de plaguicidas (resumida en tablas y gráficos) mostró una disminución del 50 %, que corresponde a la política de protección de los cultivos del país. Los agricultores mencionaron el uso de ingredientes activos autorizados y no autorizados en las encuestas realizadas, y en las muestras analizadas se detectaron dieciséis ingredientes activos de alto riesgo. Al evaluar los resultados de POCER y muestras analizadas se observó que existe una gran presión (eco) toxicológica tanto para el medio ambiente como para la salud humana ejercida por un grupo de ingredientes activos de alta toxicidad utilizados en el cultivo de tabaco de la provincia. Conclusión. Con la utilización del indicador dual POCER, se obtiene una evaluación de la presión (eco)toxicológica ejercida por los plaguicidas sintéticos utilizados en el cultivo del tabaco (Nicotiana tabacum) en la provincia de Sancti Spíritus, Cuba para el período de estudio.Universidad de Costa Rica2024-01-09info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArticleTextTextoartículo originalhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_18cfhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1info:eu-repo/semantics/articletext/xmlapplication/pdfapplication/epub+ziptext/htmlaudio/mpegaudio/mpeghttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/agromeso/article/view/5249810.15517/am.2024.52498Agronomía Mesoamericana; Agronomia Mesoamericana: Vol. 35 ; 52498 Agronomía Mesoamericana; Agronomía Mesoamericana: Vol. 35 ; 52498Agronomía Mesoamericana; Agronomía Mesoamericana: Vol. 35 ; 524982215-36081021-7444reponame:Portal de Revistas UCRinstname:Universidad de Costa Ricainstacron:UCRengspahttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/agromeso/article/view/52498/60105https://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/agromeso/article/view/52498/58753https://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/agromeso/article/view/52498/60106https://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/agromeso/article/view/52498/60107https://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/agromeso/article/view/52498/60108https://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/agromeso/article/view/52498/60109Derechos de autor 2024 Edelbis López Dávilahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0acceso abiertohttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2025-01-10T15:51:09Zoai:portal.ucr.ac.cr:article/52498Portal de revistashttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/Universidadhttp://www.ucr.ac.crhttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/index/oaijorge.polanco@ucr.ac.crCosta RicaNo aplicaNo aplicaNo aplicaopendoar:2025-08-13T10:30:05.406Portal de Revistas UCR - Universidad de Costa Ricafalse
