The decomposition products of chemicals that are used for fertilizing plants, and which are prohibited in Denmark, were found in wells, from which Danes take drinking water daily.
More than 10 years ago, a law was passed in Denmark banning the use of fungicides, traces of which were found in water as a result of a state survey. According to these results, more than 1/3 of Danish wells contain decomposition products of the chemical structure of dimethyl sulfide, which is potentially dangerous to humans.

The dimethyl sulfide residue, according to experts, is a consequence of the active use of two drugs with its high content. Chemicals were used to process plants, mainly trees, in the middle of the last century. The sale of both products on the Danish agrochemical market has been banned since 2007.Producers of agricultural chemistry of India and China have agreed to cooperate Pupils of Mexico learn to grow plants without soil American scientists have figured out how plant immunity works.
Despite the results of the study, in the opinion of the Danish Environmental Protection Agency, the concentration of a dangerous element in water is not enough to harm public health. Such a statement extinguished a bit the hype around the situation with the sources of drinking water, which shocked equally the government and ordinary citizens.
