Abstract

Health risk assessment of metals in wheat grown in municipal solid waste amended soil

Highlights

  • Introduction crop importance forPakistan’s food securityThe yield gap in wheat is about 60%,[1]

  • In Pakistan, the local prices of wheat were still underneath to benefit the net consumers of this exchange, which recital for about 80% of the population of country the worldwide exchange level [7]

  • The aim of the current research was to determine the contents of heavy metal in different varieties of wheat (Triticum aestivum) that was grown on irrigated soil and to estimate the health risk in humancaused by the consumption of contaminated wheat crop

Summary

Introduction

Introduction crop importance forPakistan’s food securityThe yield gap in wheat is about 60%,[1]. In the irrigated areas of Pakistan, the elements of higher wheat productivity have been studied [5] This all study has been based on the sample and on the primary data, which involves the chief as well as lesser or slight zones of flooded areas of the country in variety of wheat. In the country they found the factors which contributes significantly to wheat crop are the number of furrowing for grounding of land and the sprinkling of fertiliser nutrients, and the number of seed use, number of streaming. To estimate the different indices like correlation, pollution load index, enrichment factor, daily intake of metals and health risk index
