Question

pesticides manure and human hair are common contaminants critically discuss how food is contaminated in these different ways

Answer 1

Pesticides and manure contaminate food during the agricultural process. Manure poisons the earth where the food grows, while pesticides poison the produce itself. Hair just falls into food during preparation. If you're not eating fruit or veggies that is under the influence of pesticides, animals do eat them and then these become a part of the animals and contaminate your food so.

Answer 2

When too much pesticide is used in the farm, the food will still contain pesticides residues even after being washed for human consumption. After handling manure in the farm, if basic hygiene is not observed by washing hands and the food before handling the food, then there are high risks of food contamination. Not wearing a hair net when preparing food does not protect the food from falling hair during the food during preparation.
