Abstract

The first part of the paper provides a short and non-exhaustive overview of human waste use practices in agriculture and aquaculture mainly in the southern hemisphere. In the second part, institutional settings as well as regulations, strategies and practices of health protection in selected reuse schemes are presented and discussed. The promulgation of new guidelines for health protection in human waste use in the late eighties has led authorities in a number of countries to formulate new or amended national guidelines and to devise the monitoring and control of wastewater treatment and reuse schemes. The third part deals with these aspects and the author presents monitoring schedules for treated wastewater irrigation schemes.
