"The remainder of the unusable or forbidden for use plant protection chemicals is almost 789 tons, of which about 656 tons at the time, lost their owner and are currently abandoned. Approximately 2100 tons are still in Jurginskom acrotomophilia, Europe's largest repository of obsolete pesticides, which was established in 1978 as a result of the importation of pesticides here from 9 regions of Ukraine: Vinnytsia, Zhytomyr, Ivano-Frankivsk, Transcarpathian, Lviv, Rivne, Ternopil, Khmelnytsky and Volyn",- said Mykola Tkachuk.
