dc.description.abstractIn this study, the pesticide residue levels in rice paddies irrigated by river water along the Meric River were determined in the province of Edirne in Turkey. Edirne is the Turkey's largest rice paddy producer with an annual production of around 410.000 metric tons, which accounts for as much as 44% of total Turkey's paddy production in 2018. Since paddy crop is in water throughout the life stage, pesticides are inevitably used against weeds and plant pests in production. In addition, since the rice production is being carried out in the Meric basin in Bulgaria, it may be considered that pesticides that can be transported with water from this region may be transmitted to the paddy crop in Turkey. With the legal regulations prepared by taking into consideration the negative effects of drug residues in foods, a certain maximum residue limit has been determined for the active substances of each pesticide or some of them are prohibited. This study was carried out in three stages. In the first stage, paddy samples were collected from 25 different points along the Meric River in Edirne in 2018. In the second stage, the collected rice samples were separated from the stems and husks then dried and kept under suitable conditions until analyses. In the last stage, 365 of the pesticide active ingredients tested in this study were screened by the LC/MS-MS method while the rest were analyzed by the GC-MS method. As a result of the pesticide analyses, azoxystrobine (0,094-0,033 mg/kg), cyproconazole (0.029-0 mg/kg), epoxiconazole (0.018-0 mg/kg), prochloraz (0.063-0,019 mg/kg), profoxydim (0.021-0 mg/kg), propiconazole (0.116-0.043 mg/kg), tebuconazole (0.045-0.017 mg/kg) and trifloxystrobin (0.076-0.023 mg/kg) were determined in paddy and rice samples. Results indicated that the amount of pesticide residues in the analyzed paddy and rice samples was below the limits in the Turkish Food Codex and the European Union pesticide residue legislation. © 2020 The authors.en_US
