Soil Pollution, Animal Contamination and Safe Food Production: The Case of Chlordecone Pollution in the French West Indies”

Speaker :Pablo Andrés-Domenech (INRAE & BETA)

Abstract:
This article focuses on the economic and biotechnical consequences of changes in the legal maximum residue limits for pesticides (here chlordecone)on meat production. We model the concentration of this persistent pollutant in livestock meat in the French West Indies and analyse the link between soil pollution, animal contamination and food production. We compute the time required to decontaminate the animals and analyse if it is possible to respect both the health constraints and the current livestock management schedule. We also compute the cost for farmers to adapt to the new regulation and to more stringent health-related targets that are expected in the future.
