Pesticide poisong and suicide prevention

-
Enjoying a short term consultant job with a research project initiated in Nepal by the Centre for Pesticide Suicide Prevention (CPSP) formed under the auspices of the University of Edinburgh. Its aim is to identify the highly hazardous pesticides (HHPs) currently responsible for the majority of pesticide suicides in selected sites in Nepal.




Had a wonderful opportunity to interact with a number of pesticide vendors in Banke, Chitwan, Kavre and Kathmandu and to know about the pros and cons of pesticides. Nepal government has banned until now 21 HHPs which were very harmful to human health. There are still two more toxic pesticides, namely: Zinc Phosphide and Aluminium Phosphide, which are easily accessible and available in the pesticide shops and are being used for committing suicide.

Hope the government will ban these two toxic pesticides in near future which will definitely help to reduce the number of pesticide suicide.
