Moreover, some pollutants like per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances with a longer half-life (1.50–9.10 yrs) are reported to occur in several organic products. In fact, several legacy persistent organic pollutants are known for their significant trophic magnification in an urban terrestrial ecosystem. In addition, many plant functionalities are adversely affected in organic farming. Therefore, the long-term usage of organic products containing such pollutants poses a significant threat to human health. The major limitation in organic livestock production is the severe shortage of organic feed. Several variable standards and technical regulations set by the government and private agencies are the major obstacles in the global marketing of organic products. The present review critically addresses the impact of organic farming on hidden risks due to the use of composts as the amendment resources that enhance the phytoaccumulation and trophic transfer of pollutants, the functional diversity of the ecosystems, and poor harmonization among the policies and regulations in different countries for organic farming. The future directions of research have been suggested to mitigate unintended flows of pollutants into the organic products.]]> Wed 28 Feb 2024 14:51:33 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:43947 Wed 28 Feb 2024 14:45:19 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:8314 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:36:51 AEDT ]]>
