Abstract

A multi pesticide residues analysis was carried out for farmgate samples of okra fruits from four markets places of Meerut region. Collected farmgate samples (20) from Daurala, Lawer, Kesarganj and Partapur markets 40, 45, 30, 35, 50 and 25% samples were exceeded MRL and 30, 40, 35, 45, 35 and 45% samples were recorded below their resp ective MRL values. Lawer market, 65, 55, 45, 40, 70 and 55% samples contained exceeded MRL and 25, 30, 40, 45, 20 and 25% samples had residues below MRL values, Kesarganj and Partapur markets, 35, 30, 40, 30, 40 and 35% in Kesarganj market and 45, 40, 30, 40, 40 and 40% samples in Partapur market, residues exceeded MRL and 50, 45, 45, 45, 40 and 30% and 40, 40, 45, 45, 35 and 40% samples, respectively contained residues below MRL values of monocrotophos (0.20), chlorpyriphos (0.20), dimethoate (2.00), cype rmethrin (0.20), endosulfan (2.00) and imidacloprid (0.05ppm), respectively. So the okra fruits samples with residues above MRL are not safe for human consumption.
