Abstract

Agricultural plastic use has grown substantially due to its beneficial roles in crop protection, irrigation, and packaging. However, improper disposal of agricultural plastics, especially burning, leads to the release of Persistent, Bioaccumulative, and Toxic (PBT) substances into the environment. These PBT emissions present significant environmental and public health risks, as they can persist in ecosystems, accumulate in food chains, and cause harmful effects on human and animal health. This article examines the PBT emissions from burning agricultural plastics, highlighting the chemical composition, environmental fate, and impact on ecosystems. Additionally, it evaluates alternative disposal and recycling methods that could reduce the harmful effects of agricultural plastic waste, such as chemical recycling, biodegradation, and mechanical recycling. Finally, policy frameworks and sustainable practices for better managing agricultural plastic waste are discussed.
